I am writing this as a warning to anyone looking to join this program. This is not what you think it is. This is a program posing as a coaching program trying to do therapy, or at least attempting to do what therapy is intended for. This is MALPRACTICE. The only reason for the 2 stars is because of some of the friendships I made in the program and I think there are some faculty coaches with good intentions in this program, theyre just led astray by the cult-like mentality of the place. However, the faculty coaches dont have the qualifications or merit to do what they are trying to do with students and clients. They think that by reading some books, engaging in a few practices, and completing a program that meets only four times a year ran by other coaches prepares them for handling the issues that years of rigorous psychology training is supposed to handle. One coach I would really stay away from is ADAM KLEIN. Dont let his seemingly calm demeanor fool you. This man is as pretentious as they come. Adam was the head instructor of my year-long PCC program and I had one particularly negative experience with him during my certification process. On the ICF webpage it clearly states, ICF defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. Coaching focuses on visioning, success, the present and moving toward the future. Therapy emphasizes psychopathology, emotions and the past to understand the present, and it works more with developing skills for managing emotions or past issues than does coaching. The present and future were not focused on in regard to my practice client nor me by Adam during my certification process, or really for much of the entire program, which is the direction I wanted to focus on. When I tried to do actual coaching (focus on the future and goals and where to go from the present situation), I was ridiculed for it. I was criticized for not doing therapy, which is what they are trying to do with students and clients in this program. Adam was clearly going deep into emotions and past issues with me, and telling me to do that with my client. I have the videos to prove it. Beware of this place, specifically ADAM KLEIN. He is dangerous. Go to the New Ventures West Yelp page for a more full review, and I urge you to read through the other reviews on there, something is severely off about this organization.
