Synopsis

An updated version of the bestselling therapist-to-coach transition text.

The profession of life coaching is more necessary than ever in this time of pandemic-related uncertainty, the shift (in some cases, permanent) to remote learning and working, and the constant change that accompanies world events. With his bestselling Therapist as Life Coach, Patrick Williams introduced the therapeutic community to the career of life coach, and in the first and second editions of Becoming a Professional Life Coach, he and Diane S. Menendez covered basic principles and strategies for effective coaching.

Now Williams and Menendez bring a fresh take on the book that has taught thousands of coaches over fifteen years—with all-new information on the dialogue between coaches and clients, how to utilize metaphors and question-asking, the role of emotions in life coaching, the eight coaching competence categories, and more.

Goodreads review by Jan on May 31, 2024

A book I wished to have read earlier in my life. Tons of references, principles, tools and practices. Learned a lot, but extremely long and dense. Just bought the ebook to work through again.......more
