The word \\u201cempowerment\\u201d has gotten a bad name. It\\u2019s overused and undefined. What is the power that \\u201cempowerment\\u201d refers to?

Therapy presumes the therapist has the power you lack. Follow my directions, the solution will emerge, and you\\u2019ll have power. In coaching, the coach presumes you have the power but it\\u2019s latent. I will help you find it, but you\\u2019ll know where it is and you will bring it out.

Coaching looks for the power that therapy leaves on the table. Rather than freeing you from prejudice, suffering, or bondage, coaching supports achieving your goals. It\\u2019s behavioral therapy for those who don\\u2019t need therapy, sold to people entering, in, or retiring from work and relationships.
