Coaching "virtually" — by
telephone, with fax and email backup — and/or coaching face-to-face
is the most exciting, remunerative, and cutting-edge arena for clinical
practice diversification around today. Thousands of trained mental health
practitioners now combine joint clinical and coaching practices and in
the process discover, when properly structured and administered, that virtual
coaching offers impressive and unexpected advantages. The place many begin
is with The MentorCoach Training Program: Foundations (MCP).
This course
forms the foundation of the MentorCoach
Certification Program. Based on a blend of models for coaching
interventions and approaches we have refined since 1982, the MCP builds
on the fundamental skills that our students already have and begins the
transformation into their new roles as coaches. Designed to teach the nuts
and bolts of getting a coaching practice up and running, this program delves
into coaching theory, applied coaching skills, marketing, and administrative
techniques the student will need to develop and grow. Among other highlights,
the course includes:
-
Fundamental
overview of how coaching differs clinically from the typical paradigm
of a clinician in private practice.
-
Similarities
and differences in working face-to-face and virtually (at a distance,
either synchronously or asynchronously).
-
Proven coaching
techniques to help clients achieve centrally important professional and
personal goals and reach their full potential.
-
Review of
legal and ethical concerns and controversies associated with a coaching
practice.
-
Supervised
coaching practice, including hands-on application of assessment methods
and coaching approaches.
-
The "how-tos" of
integrating coaching clients with your current practice or present
job.
-
How to start
as a generalist AND begin to develop your own unique coaching niche(s).
-
What to
charge — now and later.
-
Why gently
exploring your ambivalence about coaching is essential for creating a
successful practice.
-
Resource
materials, including client contacts, "welcome" packet, a
comprehensive coaching manual, relevant research literature, and bibliographies.
