Coaches.plus

Your questions, answered

What is Coaches.plus?

Coaches.plus is a directory and matching service for coaches — life, mindset, career, executive, business, health, fitness, weight-loss, relationship and parenting coaches. Coaching is not therapy or medical care.

What does a coach do?

A coach helps you clarify goals, build a plan and follow through, usually through regular sessions and accountability. Coaching is forward-looking and goal-focused.

What’s the difference between a coach and a therapist?

Coaches help with goals and growth; therapists are licensed to treat mental-health conditions. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma or addiction, start with a licensed therapist — our sponsor Therapists.plus can help you find one.

How much does a coach cost?

Coaches set their own prices, and they vary by specialty, experience and format. Many offer a free consultation; profiles show their packages and how they work.

How do I find the right coach?

Tell us your goal, what’s in the way and how you like to meet — video, phone, in person or in a group. Coaches.plus shows coaches who fit and why, and you choose who may contact you.

Are coaches certified?

Coaches list their certifications and trainings, such as ICF credentials, and we show them as provided. Coaching is not a licensed profession, so ask about training and experience in your consultation.

What is the Terms bar at the bottom of the page?

On your first visit a slim bar asks you to agree to our Terms, which include visitor identification so we can recognize returning visitors. We record only that you visited — not the topics you read — and we don’t sell your information.

I’m a coach — how do I join?

Choose a plan at coaches.plus/join, pick your coaching specialties, and receive matched requests in your own CRM.
