Definitions of Coaching, Mentoring, Counselling, Therapies

The therapist is the archaeologist while the coach is the architect. Counselling and Therapy dwell in the past while coaching focuses primarily on present and the future.

The definition of coaching is simply an interactive, results-orientated, enlightening process that brings about change.

The definition of mentoring is a person who gives another person help and advice over a period of time and often also teaches them how to do their job or role.

The definition of counselling is a person who gives advice, an opinion, or instruction in directing the judgement or conduct of another.

The definition of therapy is the treatment of disease or disorders, as by some remedial, rehabilitating, or curative process. Therapy is an act, task, program, etc. that relieves tension.

The definition of supervision is a process using observation and feedback, providing opportunities for a coach to reflect on their performance and to receive constructive input from a more experienced coach, with the aim of advancing coaching skills, ideally taking place at regular intervals.
