Q: I see that you have mental health counseling credentials, but no formal life coaching credentials, why?
A: I have audited several life coaching programs. After a thorough review, I have come to the following conclusions:
- It's a costly and risky investment because there are no state or national laws
- Many life coaching programs are not regulated (i.e., little or no state/regional/national regulatory boards)
- Accreditation by International Coaching Federation (ICF) is self-regulated
- Instructor credentials might be weak or questionable
- Unlike accredited counseling programs, life coaching programs do not require criminal background checks for students, and possibly employees
- Coaching curriculum and certification vs. my life experience and education
