What can we work on?
Coaching can help you attain a goal or make any other change in your life. For example, gain purpose in your life, access what resources and success you already have, look at situations differently to gain new insights, understand your own motivations better or get to the core of what stops you moving ahead in your life.
Is coaching like counselling or mentoring?
Coaching is about discovery through talking and reflecting, but it is quite different from therapy or counselling – it doesn’t seek to explain or fix the past. Coaching is also different from mentoring or consultancy as it isn’t about providing answers – instead you are facilitated to discover your own solutions.
What about confidentiality?
Before the coaching begins, we will sign an agreement which outlines the expectations on both of us with regards to confidentiality and how we will work together. The agreement outlines an ethical framework and is in line with industry standards as set out by the International Coaching Federation.
Where will the coaching happen?
Most of my clients are coached over video call on Zoom. We can also hold our sessions over the telephone. If you would like to receive coaching face to face, please contact me for a bespoke quote.
I'd like to try before I buy, is this possible?
It can be difficult to get your head around what coaching is and how it can help you. For this reason, I offer a free introductory coaching session. We’ll spend up to two hours to explore your coaching goal and create some powerful insights that will help you move forward.
