As described on their site, coaching is not part of the allied health field or the fields of counseling, therapy, or clinical psychology.

Excerpt from a recent note…… From the desk of Dr. John Spencer
Ellis, CEO of the Spencer Institute Hello and thanks for a moment
of your time. I’m writing you because your recent interest in the
Food Psychology Coaching program. I know many of you have already
enrolled in this comprehensive and fun professional training
program. I have to say that I have never received so much positive
feedback about a new course like I have about this one. I think the
incredible positive feedback is because “this is it”….. and “this
is what has been needed”…. as “THE” tool for coaches, trainers
and counselors working with clients who struggle with food and
eating in general. I’m here to help you? What questions do you have
about Food Psychology Coaching? What would you like to know about
the certification program? If you haven’t yet, you should enroll in
the certification program. It’s incredible! Thank you John
