Life coaching is a practice that helps people identify and achieve personal goals. Life coaches help clients set and reach goals using a variety of tools and techniques. Coaches are not therapists nor consultants; psychological intervention and business analysis are outside the scope of their work. Life coaching has its roots in executive coaching, which itself drew on techniques developed in management consulting and leadership training.[citation needed] Life coaching also draws inspiration from disciplines including sociology, psychology, positive adult development, career counseling, mentoring and other types of counseling. Contemporary life coaching can also be traced to teachings of Benjamin Karter, a college football coach turned motivational speaker of the late 1970s and early 1980s.[6] The coach may apply mentoring, values assessment, behavior modification, behavior modeling, goal-setting and other techniques in helping their clients.[citation needed]

Multiple coach-training schools and programs are available, providing many options for the individual who wants to gain "certification" or a "credential" in the field of life-coaching. Multiple certificates and credential designations are available within the industry.[7]

Critics assert that life coaching is akin to psychotherapy without restrictions, oversight or regulation. The State legislature of Colorado disagreed,[8] after holding a hearing on such concerns, asserting that coaching is unlike therapy because it does not focus on examining nor diagnosing the past. Instead coaching focuses on effecting change in a person's current and future behavior. Additionally, life coaching does not delve into diagnosing mental illness or dysfunction.
