An updated version of the best-selling 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 best-selling 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 utilise metaphors and question-asking, the role of emotions in life coaching, the eight coaching competence categories and more.

Patrick Williams, EdD, is founder of the Institute for Life Coach Training and the coauthor of the highly acclaimed Therapist as Life Coach: Transforming your Practice, Total Life Coaching, and The Law and Ethics of Coaching. He lives in Colorado.<br /><br />Diane S. Menendez, PhD, is a master certified coach and has coached leaders, teams, and organisations for more than twenty-five years. She specialises in executive coaching, leadership development, and culture change in large organisations.
