FAQs

Coaching is a structured conversation between a coach and a coachee. Through questioning, active listening and appropriate challenge in a completely confidential environment, you are supported to identify goals and reach your own solutions.

Coaching is a future-focused, largely non-directive, structured process of support to facilitate positive personal and professional development and change through raising self-awareness.

Counselling is a past-focused, therapeutic intervention, helping someone resolve previous issues in order to function again effectively.

Mentoring is a present and future-focused activity that involves the transference of knowledge and guidance from a more experienced advisor.

Coaching fundamentally supports you in raising your own self-awareness:

• To help identify what is important to you.
• To gain clarity in thoughts, feelings, motivators and actions.
• To help identify the gap between where you are and where you would like to be.
• To develop a clear plan to enable positive change.

Sessions are 60 minutes and can be booked individually or as a package of 3. Typical coaching tends to range from 3 to 6 sessions depending on your specific goals and preferred time frame.

Coaching is currently offered via Zoom video calls.

I offer a free 30 minute consultation with all new coachees prior to any coaching. Full sessions can be booked after that. All sessions are paid in advance and confirmation of bookings will be sent via email with an electronic payment invoice receipt.

It would be useful to think about what you would like to achieve from our coaching time together. The following questions are aimed at helping you identify potential coaching topics and decide whether coaching is the most appropriate tool for you:

• What areas in my professional or personal life do I feel would benefit most from coaching?
• What is the biggest challenge I am facing right now?
• What are my objectives?
• How supportive or challenging do I need my Coach to be?
