Description

Psychologists are increasingly providing coaching services to individuals, corporations, and community organizations. But what exactly is coaching, and how does it differ from other services psychologists commonly provide? For instance, how is coaching different from clinical work? What is executive coaching? Does coaching differ from consultation? Led by three notable speakers, this three-hour webinar provides an overview of common coaching forms, examines some current legal and ethical considerations in offering coaching, and discusses the business aspects of starting a coaching practice. All four presenters have experience providing coaching and will share their insights on transitioning from clinical work to coaching as well as managing successful coaching businesses. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with each other and the presenters to explore this topic.
