I am proud to announce that I have earned the designation of Associate Certified Coach (ACC) from the International Coach Federation.
What does this mean for you?
- It is a demonstration of my personal commitment to the coaching profession. This is not what I do in my spare time. This is my life’s work. I have served clients for many years as a leadership consultant and am excited to serve as a coach for many years to come.
- You can be assured of confidentiality and safety in our coaching relationship. As a credentialed coach, I am accountable to the standards and ethics of the ICF, a global coaching association.
- You can have confidence that as a client, you are in the capable hands of someone skilled in the process of coaching. To receive my ACC, I had to graduate from an accredited coaching school, work 1-to-1 with a credentialed mentor coach to deepen my skills, have documented client coaching hours and successfully pass an oral exam with an ICF assessor who rated my skills against 11 coaching competencies.
- Finally, it means that you will be working with a coach who is continuously developing her knowledge & skills. To be in good standing with my credential, I must complete a number of continuing education credits over a three-year period.
You have many choices of practitioners who are willing to be your partner in achieving your goals. I hope you will consider those of us who demonstrate our passion for coaching by taking the time and making the effort to excel as professionals in the field.
