The International Coaching Federation (ICF) is the foremost global organization for coaches and coaching. ICF is committed to advancing the coaching profession through high standards, independent certification, and a global network of trained coaching professionals.

Coaching refers to an ongoing relationship between a professional coach and a client aimed at helping the client take action toward achieving their desired vision, goals or aspirations. This process involves inquiry and self-discovery to enhance the client's awareness and responsibility while providing structure, support, and feedback.

It's important to note that coaching is different from psychotherapy. Coaches primarily work with generally well-functioning individuals and are focused on helping them succeed with their most important goals rather than treating mental disorders. A professional coach acts as a thought partner, assisting their clients in illuminating their thinking to make more informed decisions.

Psychotherapy deals with emotional or behavioural difficulties and past painful situations to treat DSM-V disorders, except for some humanistic or solution-focused psychotherapy practices. The primary goal of psychotherapy is to help clients reach normal functioning. Therapy sessions are usually conducted in person and only occasionally over the telephone.

Coaching, on the other hand, helps individuals who are already successful and generally well-functioning to achieve a higher level of success. Coaches help their clients by leveraging their strengths and developing themselves in ways that bring greater success and satisfaction in their personal or professional lives. Coaching sessions are typically conducted in person or over the telephone. The aim of coaching is usually to achieve excellence and greater success.
