HOW IS COACHING DONE?
Most coaching is done over the phone. This gives the greatest flexibility and also lets you choose an environment where you feel comfortable. Zoom sessions are also an option. Coaching can be done weekly, bi-weekly depending on your needs. To create profound transformation in your life I recommend a three month commitment. After the three months we can continue on a monthly basis until you feel ready to stop.
WHAT HAPPENS in a typical session?
Coaching sessions are a dynamic and creative exchange between coach and client. The hallmark of coaching is self-responsibility. The client sets the agenda and the coach follows that agenda. You can expect powerful and clarifying questions, fine-tuned planning tools and accountability. Through intentional, conscious, conversation we’ll explore, get curious, engage in fun and challenging activities and support you to step out of your comfort zone and see new perspectives. We’ll set goals and design accountability towards achieving your vision and address the obstacles standing in your way. As your coach, I will support you thoroughly. We’ll accomplish a lot during a coaching session, but most of the work happens between sessions when you are deepening new awareness and taking steps to accomplish your goals.
How Much does it cost?
I’m happy to give you a fee quote in the introductory session, after we’ve discussed your needs and how we’ll structure our partnership. I find that clients who are committed to seeing change in their lives see the time and financial commitments to coaching as an investment in their future.
Is Coaching Therapy
No, coaching is not therapy. Coaching focuses on personal growth and strategic planning and does not attempt to heal emotional trauma. Coaches regularly refer clients to other professionals for issues that are better suited to a therapeutic relationship. Coaching is often a great complement to therapy.
