THERAPEUTIC COACHING CONSULTANCY
Meet the team
Our TCC-founding team were originally united through our work with the BACP Coaching Division Executive Committee. While advocating for the positive benefits of psychotherapeutically-informed executive coaching, we consistently heard feedback from clients that our approach of combining coaching and therapy was more effective in creating positive, sustainable, behavioural and emotional change than anything they'd experienced before.
As awareness of the need to address the mental health crisis in the workplace grew, so did our passion to reach beyond those who have traditionally benefitted from formal executive coaching, and overcome the stigma that prevents people seeking support for mental health concerns.
Our mission was born: to deliver the empowering high performance and mental health benefits of therapeutic coaching to a wide audience at accessible price points.
Our Associates
The expertise of our Associates is threefold: highly experienced dual-practitioners of both executive coaching, psychotherapy or counselling, and integrated therapeutic-coaching practice, combined with strong corporate backgrounds of senior leadership experience across a wide range of industries. All our Associates are registered with the main industry bodies (EMCC/ICF/AC/BACP/UKCP) and our Senior Associates additionally hold 'accredited' membership status. Bolstered by compulsory Supervision, our clients can be assured the highest standards of professional and ethical practice have been reached in both executive coaching and counselling or psychotherapy.
More than this though, our Associates are selected for their personal alignment to TCC’s mission and values, commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (with the team representing diversity in gender, neurodivergence, race, sexuality and socioeconomic status), and for overall being warm, dynamic, collaborative, kind, and energising people to work with (if we say so ourselves).
