The Socratic Coaching Method Certification

The Socratic Coaching Method Certification is the only coaching certification created (and taught live!) by Master Certified Coach Kara Loewentheil — Yale and Harvard Law School graduate, author of the New York Times-bestseller, Take Back Your Brain, and host of the chart-topping podcast UnF*ck Your Brain.

I feel so relaxed when I’m coaching because after this training I know I have everything I need to be an incredible coach and that I can coach on anything.  I have so much knowledge about why my clients’ brains offer the thoughts they do and so many tools for how to approach those thoughts.** 
Jenn, Certified Life Coach

Coaching or thought work has changed your life.

It’s why you became a coach. And you love what you do. ​

But you don’t always feel confident you’re able to deliver the caliber of coaching you want — and you see that showing up in your sessions.

Coaching or thought work has changed your life.

It’s why you became a coach. And you love what you do. ​

But you don’t always feel confident you’re able to deliver the caliber of coaching you want — and you see that showing up in your sessions.

Sometimes it feels like conversations are going in circles …

… With your client jumping from one thought to another like a frog on a pond full of lily pads, and you can’t catch them long enough to get anywhere.

Other clients seem really resistant to the work … 

… And you end up stressed out by the end of the session and already dreading the next one.

Even your favorite clients will say “Yes, wow, oh my god, I never thought of it that way, it’s all going to be different now!” … 

… And then they come back the next week with the exact same problem and it’s like Groundhog Day all over again. 🫠

These are all absolutely NORMAL parts of coaching.

They do not mean you are not a good coach, not cut out for this, or can’t hack it. 

What they DO mean is there’s more you need to learn. 

These “symptoms” are just indications you have specific gaps.

And even the best coaches have them. (Because all humans have gaps.)

These could be gaps in your coaching theory and/or practice. 

But either way: They’re gaps that need filling in order to be able to deliver consistently world-class coaching and get your clients consistently world-class results. 

Please check all that apply:

1) I am a fan of Kara's work.
2) I want to be a really skilled coach.
3) My clients talk to me about situations I wish I understood better.
4) I want to be in a supportive community of bad-ass women coaches who are changing the world.

If you checked any item, please sign up. You are not going to regret this choice!
I have so much knowledge about why my clients’ brains offer the thoughts they do and so many tools for how to approach those thoughts.**

Your coach certification taught you some tools for coaching clients.

And … that may have been it.

You were supposed to figure out what to do with them, how to use them well, and how to handle any challenges that come up on your own.  

No matter how good the tools were, it’s like being a baby bird kicked out of the nest without having been taught to fly. 

Or being given a tricycle with training wheels and being sent out to compete in the Tour de France.

But that's not how we roll. (Pun intended.)

 We teach you how to coach at an advanced level.

AND how to get better and better over time.

Socratic Coaching is the only form of coaching that not only teaches you how to coach your clients effectively, but teaches you how to coach and improve yourself as a coach effectively too. 

Socratic Coaching is best for you
AND your clients because it is:

(Click each element for the full deep dive!)

 Socratic coaching is not about woo, manifestation, or vibrations. It combines philosophical principles dating back to the Ancient Greeks with modern cognitive psychology frameworks to help your clients decide who they want to be, what lives they want to live, and how to make it all happen. 

And our work is evidence-based — it was part of a peer-reviewed double-blind study (aka the gold standard of scientific papers) published in JAMA Network Open ***, a leading online medical journal, by two doctors who proved that these coaching interventions worked. 

This work builds on the thoughts-feelings-actions cycle you may have learned in your initial certification, but goes far beyond it. It takes into account the impact of socialization on people’s thought patterns and nervous system responses — and it gives you a set of meta-skills to allow you to evaluate what is not landing with a client and why, so you can refine your skills and their experience. 

If you have ever tried to teach a client how to change their thoughts without success — or if you have thought patterns you’ve been unable to shift — this training will fix that. 

Most coaching programs pretend coaching happens in a vacuum. That all you need to do is know what your client is thinking, or apply a simple model to everyone, no matter what their circumstances. 

But life is lived in reality. People have different resources, different constraints, different values, and different priorities. Political, social, legal and financial systems constrain and shape all of our lives in different ways, and different identities and communities face different challenges. 

Socratic coaching teaches you how to meet a client in their reality, honoring their identity and acknowledging the real-world circumstances that impact their lives — while also holding the vision for change and success that they cannot see when they first come to you. It means you can be confident you can help ANYONE who comes to you, regardless of how similar or different your lives are. 

If you’ve ever felt panicked when a client brings up something really “serious,” or shied away from hard conversations in session, or not known how to handle privilege and oppression and how they impact what coaching can offer — then this certification is for you. 

Traditional life coaching, especially when aimed at women or other marginalized identities, can unintentionally push clients towards conforming to social norms. Lose weight, get married, keep a perfect home — all goals patriarchy has for women. 

Because traditional coaching frameworks operate inside social norms, they often simply adopt these goals and try to teach clients how to achieve them, sometimes with spotty success (partly because clients and coaches are often subconsciously conflicted about them, for good reason!).

Socratic coaching is different. It’s a collaborative process in which the coach and client don’t just set a goal — they interrogate the why behind the goal and make sure it aligns with the client’s values, priorities, and authentic self. This process makes goal-setting a pathway to liberation and empowerment, instead of just another way to play out perfectionism and fear of failure. Socratic coaching recognizes a client’s agency and authority and empowers them more deeply than traditional life coaching with its guru/expert model. 

This means you do a better job empowering your clients to own their own evolution, because you respect and help build their agency as an equal. Clients don’t people-please you, pretend to understand things they don’t, or end up using thought work against themselves. 

 The biggest reason clients (and coaches!) don’t achieve their goals is that they are not connected to their emotions. This means even when they are doing cognitive change work, they are not choosing and practicing new thoughts correctly because they are ignoring the brain-body connection that controls the process of creating new beliefs. 

At the same time, coach certifications that focus too much on somatics or intuition can end up leaving clients following unreflective impulses and acting out of flight or fight nervous system activation without realizing it, which means they never get any closer to regulation or achieving their goals.

Socratic coaching connects the brain and the body, allowing the coach to accurately diagnose what is going wrong when a client is unable to change a thought, process an emotion, or take a new action — and can tell them how to fix it. A coach trained in the Socratic Coaching Method never has to worry about what to do when a client says “it’s not working” because they know exactly how to diagnose and fix the error that is happening in the process. 

And as a Socratic Method Coach you will never have to worry about thinking your coaching isn’t working either — because we’ll teach you how to coach yourself whenever you feel insecure, lose your footing, or doubt yourself as a coach. You’ll be able to get back to confidence quickly, not just intellectually but emotionally — so you can show up with confidence and create the kinds of experience clients rave about.

The Socratic Coaching Method Certification runs from January–June 2026.

Here’s how it works. 

The certification is broken down into three phases:

Foundation & Core Method

Real-World Application

Practicum and Certification

In Phase 3 it’s all about application and practice. 

You’ll be meeting in small groups virtually with expert coaches to practice coaching and get personal feedback on your coaching. 

At the end of Phase 3, you’ll submit five recorded coaching calls for review in order to earn your certification.

Want more details?

Click to expand for a week-by-week overview of what you will learn in each phase.

  • Socratic Method Step 1: Learn the foundational Socratic Coaching Method radical inquiry tool, and how to use it on your clients and yourself.

     

  • Socratic Method Step 2: Learn the TEB cycle of cognitive psychology and learn the ARCA model for coaching a client through their reaction to the TEB cycle so they don’t get stuck in shame or resistance.

     

  • Socratic Method Step 3: Learn collaborative goal-setting and how to help clients tap into their life values and make aligned decisions.

     

  • Socratic Method Step 4: Learn how to help clients develop and implement new beliefs, and how to calibrate the thought-change process to make sure it truly creates neural rewiring.

     

  • Deep Dive on Trauma, the Nervous System, and Abuse: Learn how trauma impacts coaching, how to spot and handle nervous system activation in your clients, and how to screen for clients using coaching to tolerate abuse or who need additional mental health care, and how to handle those scenarios.

     

  • Deep Dive on Neurodiversity & Coaching: Many coaching clients are neurodiverse (as are many coaches), likely because they grow up in a society that tells them they should be different and they seek out self-help to try to cope with expectations about how they should be able to function that don’t match their lived experience. In this deep dive, you’ll learn how neurodiversity can impact the coaching experience and how to best support neurodiverse clients.

     

  • Deep Dive on Coaching with Confidence: We will be focusing on confidence in your coaching throughout this certification but in this deep dive we’ll work on specific tools you can use to coach yourself when you second-guess yourself and feel insecure about your coaching, as well as our proprietary continual improvement self-assessment. 

At the end of Phase 1 you will complete an open-book test on what you have learned in order to advance to Phases 2 and 3.

  • Impact of social messages on thought systems and beliefs

  • Dating, romantic relationships & sex

  • Family, parenting, & household labor/management

  • Eating, movement, & relationship with the body

  • Time management & organization

  • Career confidence & performance 

  • Money (earning, spending, saving, investing, & debt) 

  • Confidence & self-worth

  • Coaching on experiences of discrimination

  • Numbing & buffering (eating, drinking, shopping, social media, Netflix, etc).

  • Habit breaking & formation 
  • Coaching practicum calls
     
  • Live coaching feedback

  • Coaching Q&A sessions

  • Practice a self-assessment model for continually improving your coaching
     
  • Review of a recorded session by one of our coaches to achieve certification

Meet Your Teacher

I’m Kara Loewentheil, Master Certified Coach and creator of the Socratic Coaching Method. I’m a graduate of Yale College and Harvard Law School, and in my former life I was a women’s rights attorney and academic.

These days I teach women how to live a confident life, and train coaches in how to use the Socratic Teaching Method to blow their clients’ minds — and their own. I’m the host of the top-ranked UnF*ck Your Brain Podcast (50 million downloads and counting!) and the author of the New York Times-bestseller Take Back Your Brain.

As a coach I’ve coached thousands of women from all over the world and been featured in publications like The New York TimesGlamour, and Forbes. My company, The School of New Feminist Thought, has created over $26,000,000 in revenue 

I drink iced coffee year-round and when I’m not working you’ll find me reading novels in a hammock by the creek next to my 200-year-old farmhouse upstate, or corralling my family of excitable raccoons (by which I mean husband and step-kids) in a brownstone in Brooklyn. I enjoy cheap pizza, expensive travel, and asking people inappropriately deep questions in social situations.

FAQs

You've got questions? We've got answers!

Nope! In fact, this certification does not teach the LCS model at all. The Socratic Coaching Method is a proprietary coaching method I’ve developed, honed, and tested over the last decade — it’s not taught anywhere else. 

Whatever coach training you have already completed, including LCS, this will expand your knowledge base, sharpen your skills, and give you access to and license to use an entire new set of tools and techniques that are not otherwise available for you to use with clients. 

Learning to improve your confidence as a coach and learning how to self-assess and improve will also up your coaching game long-term and help you show up more powerfully as a coach. 

Here’s what one of the LCS coaches who went through a previous iteration of this program said: 

Don’t hesitate. It will uplevel all that you learned in LCS and take you to such an empowering place. – Julie Squires

And here’s what a coach who had been certified by another school had to say about it: 

I now understand coaching in a way that I was unable to before this program. I can recognize patterns in my clients with their thinking, what they fear and where they’re holding back and now I know why. Before, it felt like I was coaching on the surface and now I can recognize the deeper cause of their issues. This deeper understanding has made me one thousand times more effective as a coach. – Sandy 

No, you won’t be bored. Of course, as a coach, you have some foundational coaching tools — and you may recognize some of the cognitive psychology-based tools we cover especially in Week 1. But the rest of the curriculum is based on the concepts, theory, tools, and practices I have developed myself through coaching thousands of women over a decade at the highest level.  

What makes this certification so powerful for anyone, and perfect for existing coaches as well, is that I focus a lot on what other certifications don’t teach you — how to trouble-shoot when something isn’t working, how to solve the common obstacles that come up in mindset coaching, and how to continually coach and improve yourself and your own skills. 

Depending on the makeup of those who enroll, we may sort the small groups by coaching stage and experience. But either way, you’ll learn to coach more efficiently and effectively no matter what your previous training. 

No space is entirely privilege-blindness-free, but The Socratic Coaching Method builds on my international leadership in bringing an intersectional feminist lens to the coaching world. 

We call our coaching method reality-based because it takes into account social, political, legal, and financial systems of power and oppression and teaches coaches how to make space for those realities in their coaching while also empowering clients to see new possibilities for their lives. 

Here’s what a student in an earlier version of this program said about participating in it as a woman of color: 

Right from the beginning of this course I felt seen and heard as a Black woman. I honestly did not expect it. As a woman that belongs to a number of marginalized groups it was amazing to see myself reflected back in this curriculum and have acknowledgement of my experience in the world!

If you’re thinking about doing the program then the answer should be HELL yes! It has truly upleveled my coaching!” – Dr. Sonia Wright, MD, Master Certified Life Coach and Sex Coach 

Absolutely. I’ve trained many therapists in using my tools and concepts in their practices. So I’ll just let a couple of them tell you directly how it helps:

After I started implementing this perspective a client said to me: Where did you learn how to be a therapist? Because I’ve been in and out of therapy and I’ve never done it like this. – Katy Delagardelle, LISW

The lens Kara brings is not taught in any of the places I gained education from, and I’m very skilled with CBT and DBT, those were my core curriculum. This brought an entirely new layer to my practice. I specialize in addictions and trauma and this work transformed my relationship with myself and empowered me to facilitate deeper transformation with my patients. – Sasia Lile, MSW

Nope. Neither was my coach certification or master coach certification when I got trained. 

And in a decade of coaching thousands of women, writing a NYT bestseller, speaking on corporate stages, and hosting a top-ranking podcast, not a single client or booker or agent has ever asked me if it was. 

No one is going to ask you either. They just want help. 

This certification is open to anyone of any gender identity who coaches any kind of human!

The first phase of this certification focuses exclusively on foundational coaching tools and processes that applies to anyone with a human brain. And honestly, that phase on its own is worth the cost of admission.

Phase two of the certification focuses on how social messages impact people’s brains, and how to apply that theory to various areas of clients’ lives. This phase does focus more on gender socialization than other factors, but also covers socialization along identities like race and ethnicity, neurodiversity, body size, age, gender identity and sexuality, etc. 

If you do coach people socialized as women in whole or in part, it’s invaluable as-is. If you coach exclusively people socialized as men, the concepts will be very useful as a framework for developing your own understanding of how men are socialized and how that impacts their thought patterns. (In fact, if this is you, please let us know post-certification because I’m always looking to connect with folks who coach men around their gender socialization!)

Bottom line: If you coach people with brains, this certification will make you better at doing it.  

Short answer: No, that’s not a good idea. 

Longer answer: No, that’s not a good idea for a few reasons. 

In my coaching programs I use a mix of my own tools and tools I learned in the coach certification I attended. I have a legal license to use the latter set of tools with my clients, but not to use them to certify other coaches. That’s why the Socratic Coaching Method Certification is a unique certification in my proprietary tools. If you haven’t been certified by a coaching program, you don’t technically have a license to use their intellectual property in your business. When you achieve SCMT certification though, you get a license to use all of our tools with your clients! 

Coaches think feeling confident comes from tons of experience, making huge amounts of money, or having a lot of clients.

And they're all wrong.

Confidence as a coach comes from confidence in your skills, your tools, and the ability to self-assess and self-improve on both of those things.

A confident coach:

Knows exactly how to handle ANY issue that comes up in coaching, no matter how complex, difficult, or challenging. 

Can rely on a set of evidence-backed tools that have been validated with thousands of clients over years of practice to get clients clear and obvious results.

Has a process for continually improving their own coaching by reflecting on and assessing their performance and recalibrating their skills — building confidence in their excellence more and more over time.   

Supports themselves with professional-level self-coaching tools to show up as their most confident self in session every time. 

That is what the Socratic Coaching Method Certification teaches you to do. 

I'll never look at my coaching or the world the same way again. This certification is a "YES" for anyone who wants to move forward in coaching in a sustainable, and next level, way. Everyone who graduates will surely make the world a better place.
