Solution-Focused Coaching Message from Marilyn Atkinson, Ph.D. Founder of Erickson Coaching International At any given moment in history, at particular locations on the planet, a few specific people and groups can be identified as being on the cutting edge of thought and skills, doing the most advanced work of the time in vitally important areas. Erickson Coaching International is one of these advanced learning centers. About Milton Erickson The Solution-Focused Counselling approach grew from a study of the most successful American therapists and leaders. Legends in their own time, they included Milton Erickson, after whom our school is named. It is widely acknowledged that those outside of a culture often make the most valuable observations and discern distinctions that do not occur to insiders. In many ways, the extremely brilliant and unusual Dr. Erickson was an outsider in his own culture, making a life of insightfully inquiring into the nature of disease, perception and healing. Color blind, tone deaf, and with unusual muscle control abilities, he was known to have extraordinary powers of observation. His therapeutic successes made him a legend in his own time. About Erickson s Solution-Focused Approach Pioneered and developed by Marilyn Atkinson, Ph.D., Erickson s Solution-Focused Coaching model that integrates the profession of coaching with a highly developed body of personal growth technologies. Developed over the past 30 years, it provides a comprehensive approach that assists individuals, managers and teams to take action in alignment with their highest individual and corporate vision. Why You Should Choose Erickson Coaching International For Your Coach Training Erickson Coaching International was founded in 1980 and initially specialized in NLP, counselling, and other human development programs. Even at that time Founder, Marilyn Atkinson, was already anticipating a fundamental shift in the helping model from past or present centered dissatisfaction to orienting clients towards their desired future outcomes. She actively shaped how the Solution-Focused Methodology now informs and differentiates coaching from other disciplines in the field.
