Our platform connects you with individuals seeking goal-oriented support, allowing you to focus on facilitating powerful coaching partnerships.

Key Responsibilities

Remote Coaching Services

Provide professional individual (and potentially group) coaching sessions via secure video conferencing. Focus on client-defined agendas and goals related to areas such as career development, leadership skills, life transitions, wellness, performance enhancement, or personal growth.

Goal Clarification & Action Planning

Partner with clients using effective coaching techniques (e.g., active listening, powerful questioning) to clarify goals, explore possibilities, identify obstacles, and co-create actionable strategies.

Empowerment & Accountability

Support clients in identifying and leveraging their strengths, resources, and creativity. Provide structure and accountability to encourage client progress and follow-through on action plans.

Scope Definition & Ethical Boundaries

Maintain a clear distinction between coaching and therapy. Operate strictly within the scope of coaching practice. Recognize when a client's needs fall outside this scope (e.g., requiring mental health treatment) and refer them appropriately to licensed mental health professionals or other resources.

Coaching services provided via this platform are not intended to diagnose or treat mental health disorders.

Ethical Practice

Adhere rigorously to the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Code of Ethics or the ethical code of another recognized professional coaching body. Uphold strict client confidentiality as defined within coaching ethics and client agreements.

Client Communication

Direct Fee Management

Establish your coaching package rates or session fees and manage the billing and payment process directly with your clients.

Requirements

Education & Coach Training

While no specific degree is required, a Bachelor's degree may be preferred by some clients.

Completion of comprehensive coach-specific training (e.g., 60+ hours) from a reputable program, particularly one accredited or approved by the International Coaching Federation (ICF ACTP or ACSTH), is highly preferred.

Certification

Professional certification from a recognized coaching organization (e.g., International Coaching Federation - ICF: ACC, PCC, MCC; Center for Credentialing & Education - BCC) is strongly preferred and may be required for platform inclusion as an indicator of training, experience, and ethical commitment.

Note: Coaching is not a state-licensed profession in the US.

Experience

Verifiable experience providing professional coaching services. Testimonials or references demonstrating coaching effectiveness are advantageous. Experience delivering coaching via remote/virtual platforms is a plus.

Specialization (Optional)

Demonstrated expertise or certification in specific coaching niches (e.g., Executive, Leadership, Career, Business, Wellness, Life Purpose, ADHD coaching) is welcome and can be highlighted in your profile.

Technology Competency

Proficiency in using online video conferencing platforms (e.g., Zoom, Google Meet), scheduling tools, and basic client management/record-keeping practices suitable for coaching.

Ethical Knowledge

Strong understanding of and commitment to the ICF Code of Ethics (or equivalent). Clear understanding of the boundaries between coaching, consulting, mentoring, and therapy.

Insurance

Carrying professional liability (E&O) insurance specifically covering coaching services is strongly recommended for independent practice.

Skills

• Exceptional active listening and powerful questioning skills.
• Proficiency in goal setting, action planning, and accountability frameworks.
• Ability to build rapport and trust quickly in a virtual environment.
