Coaching helps you to stop, think, reflect, and explore.
It provides a safe space that is open, honest and free from judgement, with constructive challenge and support.
It helps you get out of your own head.
A Coach might use coaching tools and techniques.
But most of all a Coach will listen and ask questions.
I will ask what brings you to coaching to get an idea of what you’re looking for help with. We find out a bit about each other. It’s important that you get the right Coach for you so you get to ask me questions too. After the call you decide whether you want to continue to work with me. There’s no obligation.
No, not unless you want to. Just be ready to talk to me about what’s important to you.
We can discuss the best number of sessions for you.
I might suggest a coaching package of 3 or 6 sessions, or if you prefer you can pay by session.
Payment is by bank transfer or credit card in advance of sessions.
In return for your investment you get my full and undivided attention in our sessions; additional support in between sessions by email; my supportive challenge and objectivity; someone in your corner who isn’t your partner or your friend; the space to say what’s really on your mind without being judged; and the time to reflect and say how you really feel.
Yes, sometimes a single session can do the job. It depends on what you want to achieve. That’s something we can discuss in the introductory call.
Each session lasts for an hour.
We meet online or on the phone*. You tell me how you want to use the session and we agree on the outcome and we take it from there. There isn’t a set structure for a session.
*As of January 2021 I am coaching online or on the phone. I’m hoping to reintroduce face to face sessions later in the year.
I usually Coach online (Skype or Zoom) or on the phone.
Sessions can be weekly, fortnightly, once every three weeks or over a longer period. It depends what it is you want to work on and what your goal is.
Yes, you can get in touch between sessions by email or text. I’ll always try and get back to you within 24 hours – or on Monday if you get in touch over the weekend.
I give you a direct link to my calendar to book your sessions.
I offer coaching weekdays including some evening sessions. We can talk about when sessions would be best for you in our introductory call.
Sometimes. If we both agree that there’s something that you could work on or think about between sessions.
I’m calm and patient. I listen and ask lots of questions. Sometimes I will ask challenging questions. I use coaching models and techniques – these vary for every client depending what we are working on. Read more about what it’s like to work with me.
I offer a free Discovery Call. If that’s too big a step for you just now then drop me an email and we can start an email conversation to get to know each other a bit better.
I’m happy to explore what’s important for you. If I feel something isn’t appropriate, if I’m not able to help you or I feel you need more specialist help or advice then I will tell you.
I maintain 100% confidentiality to the fullest extent of the law, and so long as I don’t fear for you or another’s safety.
People like you and me. If you feel you need to make a change in any aspect of your life or work, and you are committed to making a change, then coaching is for you.
Only you know that. But if you’ve carried on reading until now I would ask if you can afford not to. It’s an investment in yourself.
