In Lieu of Therapists, Benchmark Opts for "Coaches"
psy:
As far as I know, the Benchmark staff never received any sort of actual coaching license from the ICF (not that a "life coach certificate" means anything, as evidenced by penn and teller's bullshit episode on the subject). All they did was take 30 hours of coursework which they seem to have invented a fancy abbreviation for ("ACSTH Certified") which stands for "Approved Coach Specific Training Hours".
Also, Bill Valentine, if you remember correctly, was good buddies with Mel Wasserman at CEDU. He helped develop the parent seminars with Mel (from est and LifeSpring), according to a phone conversation I had with Penelope. Their website used to credit Mel Wasserman for their phillosophy until I pointed it out, after which it was promptly deleted (but I have a screenshot).
