Coaching, not therapy or treatment
Coaching is a forward-looking process focused on goals, decisions, behaviour and action. It is not psychotherapy, counselling, medical care, psychiatric care, diagnosis or treatment. It is not suitable as an emergency or crisis service.
If you are in danger, at risk of harming yourself or someone else, or experiencing an acute health or mental health crisis, contact local emergency services or a qualified healthcare professional immediately.
No legal, financial or regulated professional advice
Website content, conversations about work and entrepreneurship, and practical exercises are not legal, tax, accounting, investment, employment, immigration or financial advice. Decisions with material legal, health or financial consequences should be checked with a suitably qualified professional in the relevant jurisdiction.
AI and ChatGPT guidance
Coach Meltzer shares practical experience with ChatGPT and OpenAI products. AI systems can produce incorrect, incomplete, biased or outdated output. Features, prices, terms and capabilities also change. You remain responsible for checking output, protecting confidential information, following workplace policies and deciding whether a tool is appropriate for your situation.
Unless explicitly stated, Coach Meltzer and Meltzer Media are not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by OpenAI. ChatGPT and OpenAI are trademarks of their respective owner.
Results and responsibility
Testimonials, examples and ideas describe possibilities, not guarantees. Career, business, side-hustle and personal results depend on many factors outside the coach’s control, including your choices, effort, market conditions, employer decisions and personal circumstances.
You retain responsibility for your decisions and actions. Coaching may challenge assumptions and create accountability, but it does not transfer decision-making responsibility to the coach.
Articles, sources and external links
Blog posts summarise and respond to third-party reporting for education and discussion. A summary is not a substitute for reading the source. External articles can change, move behind a paywall or contain views that Coach Meltzer does not share.
Links are provided for context and convenience. They do not create responsibility for the destination website’s content, security, accuracy or privacy practices.
Questions about fit
The free first conversation is a good place to discuss whether coaching is appropriate. If another form of support appears better suited to the situation, I may recommend that you seek a qualified professional instead. Use the contact form to start that conversation.
