“I wasn’t sure what to expect to start, I had my reservations about what coaching is and how it would or wouldn’t fit into my way of working as a counsellor. Those reservations were dismissed within the first session with a clear outline of what we would be learning and acknowledging that this is first steps to developing coaching practice or integrating it into current practice. The confident, approachable, knowledgeable, and ethical stance from Ron helped allay any concerns too.
The course was very thorough, including coaching models, skills, techniques, ethics and integration into current practice were all covered as well as next steps to becoming a coach as a separate role. I have been able to integrate elements of coaching into my counselling practice with confidence which has given me extra ways of working with ‘stuckness’ and move towards change identified by clients whilst maintaining my authenticity and ethical practice as a counsellor.
I would highly recommend this course if you are considering a career in coaching or looking to extend your skills as a counsellor”
