Service Details + Terms

Let's create clarity! To ensure that you are understand the program details, thank you for reading this before purchasing. By buying and using this program, you’re agreeing to the terms below.

When we say “we,” “us,” or “Company,” we mean Growing Self, LLC.
When we say “you” or “Client,” we mean you, the person purchasing and participating.

1) What you’re getting

You’re enrolling in Coaching Certification For Therapists®️ (the “Program”), as described on the page where you registered.

The Program may include things like:

  • Online lessons and digital resources (downloads, worksheets, templates, etc.)

  • Group or 1:1 coaching

  • Workshops or trainings

  • Online community spaces hosted by us or a third-party platform (course platform)

By participating, you agree to follow the policies in this agreement (and any community rules we post).

2) “Lifetime access” (what that means)

We periodically update the program materials. If you purchase, you’ll continue to have access to updates as long as we still offer the Program area to customers. That’s what we mean by “lifetime access.”

3) Bonuses

Sometimes we offer bonuses during promotions. If a bonus was offered to you when you enrolled, you’ll receive it.

Bonuses can change over time and aren’t guaranteed to be available forever.

We may also offer additional experiences to certain groups of participants from time to time. These are optional extras, and we decide who they’re offered to.

4) Who this program is for

This program is for adults 18 and older.

If you are enrolling with the goal of meeting the educational training requirement for the Board Certified Coach (BCC) credential through the Center for Credentialing and Education (CCE), you’re confirming that you meet their prerequisites to attain the BCC credential through a 30-hour coach training program such as this one. (Meaning that you are either a Nationally Certified Counselor, have a Master's Degree in Counseling, are a fully licensed mental health professional, or have a doctorate in a related field such as social work, or marriage and family therapy).

It's okay to take this program if you are in the process of meeting one of these prerequisites. However, if you don’t meet one of these prerequisites by the time you plan on submitting your BCC credentialing application, you should not enroll in this program.

5) Other policies that also apply

Our Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, and Disclaimer are part of this agreement too. Unless something is explained differently here, those policies still apply.

6) Program Options + Pricing Details

We offer this program in two different levels, depending on how much support and real-world practice you want while you learn.

When you enroll, you’ll choose one of these two program tiers:

1) The Coaching Academy

The Coaching Academy is a self-paced online course designed for therapists who want to learn coaching skills, transition ethically into a coaching role, and build confidence using evidence-based coaching competencies.

This training is designed to meet the criteria for the 30-hour educational training requirement needed to apply for the Board Certified Coach (BCC) credential through the Center for Credentialing & Education (CCE) (an affiliate of the National Board for Certified Counselors).

What you get:

  • Online, self-paced coursework

  • Digital resources and training materials

  • Ongoing access to updated materials as long as we continue to offer the program to customers (“lifetime access”)

Tuition: $1,999 (pay in full or choose 12 monthly installments of $199)

You can enroll in the Coaching Academy at any time. You do not need to attend a live information session, nor wait for a cohort start date.

Here is the link to enroll in the Coaching Academy →

2) The Expert Experience

The Expert Experience level of this program includes everything in the Coaching Academy, plus several additional features designed to help you shift into a confident coaching identity and get real-world practice coaching clients.

In addition to the full Coaching Academy curriculum, you also receive:

  1. Eight weeks of live classes with Dr. Lisa to support professional identity shifts and the pivots needed to transition successfully as a coach

  2. Access to a vibrant online community to ask questions and stay connected while you work through the coursework

  3. An eight-week practicum where Growing Self tries to connect you with four to six coaching clients so you can practice coaching competencies in the real world

  4. A weekly live practicum group to discuss coaching cases and get questions answered

  5. Participation in a BCC exam study group

  6. This level awards 50 ACEP CEU credits

BCC coaching experience hours support:
This level is designed to support students in earning the 30 coaching experience hours required as part of the BCC application process.

When applicable, your program coaches can sign off on the professional endorsement and verification of hours for your BCC application, based on your participation and completed experience hours through our practicum.

It is expected that you will carry your practicum clients with you to your own private practice for continued coaching and support once the practicum concludes. 

At this time, you will:
1. Negotiate your own fees
2. Set your coaching clients up in your own practice management system
3. Have them re-sign your paperwork (and any other necessary documentation)

If you are interested in exploring practice management services and ongoing access to clients through Growing Self, we'll provide you with information about those options.

TL;DR 

The Expert Experience includes everything in the Coaching Academy, plus live instruction, community support, BCC exam study group, and a supervised practicum experience as well as direct access to paying coaching clients that you retain from your practicum.

Tuition: $5,329

You may choose:

  • Pay in full: $5,329 (one-time payment), or

  • Installments: 12 monthly installments of $489, charged automatically

  • If you would like to enroll in the expert experience level of this program please contact drlisa@growingself.com to set up a time to attend a live information session if you have not done so already. If you have previously met with Dr. Lisa for this pre-enrollment call, please let her or our office (hello@growingself.com) know which cohort you would like to register in, and we will send you a link to do so. Our cohorts begin the first week of January, March, and May every year, with mid month start dates for our later year sessions in July and September.

 

Important Disclosures (Please Read)

Practicum + client connection disclosure

We make every effort to connect students with coaching clients during the practicum experience. However, for reasons outside of our control, it is not always possible.

Because of this:

  • We do not guarantee that students will be connected with coaching clients during the practicum,

  • We do not guarantee that students will be able to retain coaching clients once matched, and

  • We do not guarantee that students will attain all 30 required coaching experience hours during the practicum.

Coaching vs. therapy + legal/ethical disclosure

We provide reliable training and best practices regarding the differences between coaching and therapy—including how to stay in your scope and communicate clearly with clients.

That said, state rules and regulations vary, and laws can differ depending on where you live and practice. Because of this, it is always best practice for students to consult with a trusted attorney who specializes in mental health law or healthcare law in their specific state.

We may provide examples of paperwork and templates, but:

  • Students should review these materials with their own attorney and/or clinical supervisor to confirm they align with state requirements and clinical standards.

  • Students are responsible for thinking critically about the language, policies, and procedures they use in their own practice and adjusting any paperwork or processes to fit their specific needs.

Payment Plan Basics 

If you choose a payment plan, you’re authorizing us to automatically charge your payment method each month.

If a payment doesn’t go through, we’ll ask you to update your payment method. If payments remain unpaid, we may pause access to the program until your account is current.

 

 

Automatic billing

If you choose the payment plan, you’re giving us permission to automatically charge your saved payment method each month.

If a payment fails

If your payment method is declined and we can’t collect a payment, you agree to promptly provide a new payment method. If payment isn’t resolved, we may suspend or end your access to the Program (including any bonuses) until your account is current.

Payment plans are commitments

If you choose a payment plan and you keep the Program past the refund window (below), you’re still responsible for completing all remaining payments.

 

7) Community guidelines + confidentiality

We work hard to make the Program a safe, respectful space.

By participating, you agree that you will:

  • Treat others with respect

  • Not harass, threaten, bully, or use hate/discriminatory speech

  • Not share private information about other participants outside the Program

  • Not share or redistribute Growing Self’s proprietary program materials

Important: To protect other participants’ privacy, you may not use AI tools to record or transcribe any session attended by other participants.

We also keep this a pitch-free zone. That means you agree not to sell, promote, market, or recruit other participants into outside groups or programs inside our spaces.

We may remove posts or participants who violate these guidelines, at our discretion.

8) Refund policy (14 days)

We want you to feel good about your purchase—and we also want to make sure you’ve had a real chance to try it.

You have a 14-day money-back guarantee, starting from the date you receive access to Module 1.

To request a refund

Email us at hello@growingself.com within 14 days and tell us you want a refund.

  2. At least 5 sentences describing your understanding of the six core coaching competencies and the coaching-specific skills therapists need.

  3. Screenshots showing passing scores on the Module 1 and Module 2 comprehension quizzes.

  4. (If you’re in a live cohort option) A screenshot showing one completed reflection assignment posted in the community.

  5. A brief explanation of why the program wasn’t a fit—what you expected that you didn’t get.

If you request a refund but don’t send the required materials by the end of the 14-day window, we can’t approve the refund.

After 14 days

After the 14-day refund window:

  • All sales are final

  • Payments are non-refundable

  • If you’re on a payment plan, you’re responsible for the remaining payments

If you get a refund

If we approve your refund, your access ends immediately. You agree to stop using the materials and delete or destroy any copies you downloaded or saved.

9) Recordings + permission

Some calls, trainings, or events may be recorded, and your voice, image, or participation may appear in those recordings.

By participating, you agree that:

  • Cohort calls may be shared with others in your cohort

  • Some continuing education trainings may be recorded and added to our library for other clinicians

  • You won’t receive compensation for those recordings

10) Your login

If you create login credentials, you agree to keep them private and not share them.

If we believe your account is being shared or misused, we can suspend or terminate access without a refund.

11) Intellectual property 

All program content is owned by Growing Self (or our licensors) and is protected by copyright and trademark law.

You’re welcome to use the materials for your personal use and your business—but you may not:

  • Copy, resell, or distribute them

  • Share them with others

  • Upload them anywhere they can be copied broadly (including AI training systems or databases)

If you violate these terms, your access may be terminated without refund.

12) Disclaimers 

This Program is educational. It is not therapy, clinical supervision, legal advice, medical advice, or financial advice.

Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby may be licensed as a psychologist and marriage and family therapist, but in this Program she is acting as a coaching educator, not your therapist, supervisor, attorney, or business manager.

You’re responsible for your decisions and for getting appropriate clinical supervision and/or legal guidance as needed.

We also can’t guarantee specific income results—your outcomes depend on many factors we can’t control.

13) Ending access

We may terminate access if someone is disruptive, violates community rules, or breaks this agreement.

If access ends (by termination or cancellation), you’re no longer allowed to use the Program materials, and these protections still apply going forward.

14) Legal details

This agreement is governed by Colorado law, and any legal disputes must be handled in state or federal courts near Denver, Colorado.

Both sides agree to handle disputes individually (no class actions).
