Coach or wellbeing practitioner

Wellbeing coaches, with what was checked printed.

Coaching is not a regulated profession in the UK, so there is no register to check. Coaches listed here have had their insurance and identity checked by a person, the badge says exactly that, and each profile carries the caveat in plain words. Nothing is ranked and there are no reviews.

The badge for this role says: Insurance and identity checked. There is no register for this role, and every profile says so.

Plain answers

Questions people ask about coaches

Is coaching regulated in the UK?

No. There is no statutory register for coaching, and anybody may use the title. That is why every coaching profile here says so in plain words, and why the coach badge lists only what could be checked: insurance and identity.

What is the difference between a coach and a therapist?

A therapist works with what is troubling you, is on a professional register that can strike them off, and is supervised. A coach works towards goals you set, and is not on a register. Some people want one, some the other, and a profile explains which this person offers.

What is checked for a coach?

Insurance and identity, by a person, before listing and again every year. Nothing else can be checked because nothing else exists to check, and the badge says exactly that.
