So, basically, I don't disagree. And I can see you are a coach.
I am coming from an NLP background, have been coaching for years, got lots of experience and found that therapeutic modalities can really benefit my coaching clients. You mentioned parts work for instance.
However, I started training as a therapist a couple of year…

However, I started training as a therapist a couple of years ago and when practising I find that some clients want more, they want to solve the past and then move to the future (coaching). Or that some coachees ask for deeper analysis why they have a limiting belief, asking me to work as a therapist.
It's a profession now known as Personal Consultancy and I will dedicate my dissertation to it. Having started the literature review, I am excited about the space and wonder how we can integrate the two.
I almost believe it's easier to integrate coaching into therapy, once a client is ready. And, where do you draw the lines when you have a clinically depressed person in coaching?
For the founders it becomes an advantage as you are their personal consultant, you deal with therapy, coaching, and to a certain extend mentoring too. That's a price tag that easily justifies the £150/hour or more tbh. Also, therapy still has a negative connotation, meaning whilst most people are now happy to talk about therapy, some C-Levels do not want to mention the T word. It is still associated with weakness. Yet having a coach is seen as 'makes sense', 'cool' even (if I may say so).
From my understanding the US American market is a lot more advanced in terms of people having personal therapist and coaches and work with them on an ongoing basis. Imagine instead of paying two people on a regular basis, you only pay one? A one stop shop, less time, less expense, same result - or even better as the personal consultant is better placed to connect the dots.
Popovic and Jinks wrote a book on it (Personal Consultancy). So they deserve a lot of credit for the initial idea. Yet, as part of my dissertation, I will also examine the ethical boundaries and dual relationship, as this could be a challenge. Although, from early discussions with my own therapy and coaching clients, I don't think it's a problem....depending on the issue ;-) And that's where we start with the boundaries again.
Thank you, Volker! I haven't heard of personal consultancy, but I like the sound of it, so will check out the book. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
I love this.
