215 After a decade of great expectations, much of the initial hype about coaching has deflated, and the realities are becoming clearer. In this workshop, you'll get an overview of the trends in coaching practice today and the prospects for the future, as well as a clearer idea of what distinguishes coaching as a helping discipline. We'll examine the top coaching niches that most appeal to therapists, and the knowledge base that sets coaching apart from both therapy and consulting. You'll get the chance to use self-assessment exercises to assess your inclination toward coaching and see how coaching can add range and flexibility to your current skill-sets. Participants will learn the basics of a coaching dialogue, and how to move from a therapy to a coaching mindset.
