Ethics | Mindset | Trust | Agreement | Presence | Listening | Awareness | Growth
What is an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC)?
I am a Professional Certified Coach credentialed through the International Coaching Federation (ICF), the most respected global credentialing body in the coaching profession.
This means I have:
✅ Completed over 500 hours of paid coaching ✅ Passed a recorded competency review
✅ Passed a proctored certification exam ✅ Committed to the highest ethical standards in the industry
In 2022, I completed a Level 3 coaching course for Master Certified Coaches. A Master Certified Coach must have over 2500 hours of paid coaching. I have begun the process of applying for my MCC through the ICF. I am actively working to accomplish this milestone.
