I train licensed clinicians to coach — ethically, competently, and profitably.
The Coaching School For Therapists is ICF-accredited and built for one person: the clinician who is good at the work, tired of the old model, and unwilling to compromise her ethics to earn well.
Doing good and earning well were never opposites.
I believe that all people have the potential to create a life that they love.
SO… WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
Meet Dr. LIz…
Hi, my name is Dr. Liz Lasky - and here's why I build The Coaching School For Therapists
Short version: it did not exist when I needed it!
It all started when I was fresh out of school and seeing a therapist every week. I only did it because I thought that to be a good social worker, my brain needed to be SHRINK’D.
Every week I’d go to therapy, and leave feeling worse until I finally asked myself what the hell I was actually doing.
Then I found coaching and it was the change of pace I needed (sorry, therapist!)
It was brand new, so exciting, and just what this Doctor of Social Work ordered. It gave me a renewed sense of purpose, another way to support clients, and the nerve to show up and disrupt the status quo.
Now I have my own practice, I have been published in journals on coaching and social work, and I teach coaching skills to helping professionals like you.
Here is the part most coaching trainers cannot say. My published work is on the ethical congruence between coaching and social work. I am not a coach who simply read about ethics one time. I am the person who did the research.
I also learned to coach the hard way. From people who did not know anything about therapy. So, I created what I didn’t have.
The Coaching School For Therapists.
