Etymology
The word consultancy comes from the verb consult, from the old Latin root consultare meaning 'to ask' or 'to talk about a problem'. You can see the same root in consultant, a person people ask for expert help. So a consultancy is a business where experts are asked to give advice, which is why it means professional advice.
