Coaching and Therapy Encounters
While coaching and therapy are diferent disciplines, there are
areas of overlap and they have much to offer and learn from each
other.
In the past, there has been caution, and even antagonism, from
both sides and the sometimes necessary emphasis on differences.
Now, more mutual appreciation and reaching out is happening.
Many therapists have added coaching to their skill set and the
BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) started
a coaching division in November, 2010.
Many coaches, and organisations using coaches, are looking for
coaching and coach training that is more psychologicially informed
and transformational.
Duncan Coppock, of Self Factor Coaching, and Joan Wilmot, of The
Centre for Supervision and Team Development, are collaborating so
that practitioners and their clients can benefit from the best of
both approaches
From Duncan:
 I
have 35 years experience in personal and spiritual development,
started coaching in 1998 and have been training both personal
and executive coaches since 2001. I have noticed more
therapists coming through the trainings and appreciate the
presence and insight they bring with them. And for their part,
they appreciate the structure and direction that comes from
coaching.
From early on as a coach, in addition to working with my
own mentor coach, I have had frequent supervsion from a highly
experienced therapist supervisor. I found that it gave me
additional insight and support in being more fully present
and effective with my clients. I am delighted to be working
with Joan to make some of this available for other coaches,
through training and supervsion.

From Joan:
 I
am a founding member of the Centre for Supervision and
Team Development . We have been offering supervision training
to therapists and counsellors, and also to managers and others
responsible for team development, for over 30 years. In recent
years more coaches have been coming to our trainings. We enjoy
their input and find that they gain from the additional insight,
presence, models and skills we provide.
I am also trained as a coach and find that the structure
and results focus complements and adds to my training in therapy
and supervision. I am an advocate of life long learning and
believe that the coach trainings we offer can greatly enhance
the outlook and skills of therapists and bring real benefits
to their clients |
