So what is a professional coach?
A professional coach is someone who is qualified to support, challenge, and motivate you to
achieve your personal or professional goals.
A coach will help you take action, strategize how to overcome obstacles, identify your strengths and weaknesses, and enable you to move forward much quicker than you would on your own.
How does one-to-one coaching work?
A co-created process that focuses on goals that you identify and prioritize.
A a positive, holistic learning process that focuses on your behaviours, beliefs, and ways of being and explores how those things propel you toward success or creates unnecessary barriers in your personal or your professional life.
Involves self-examination and openness. It involves thinking about and doing things differently.
Helps clarify and bring to light what we want, how to get there, and how we want to be on the journey.
There is a component of accountability present in coaching that can be helpful in staying focused while dealing with day-to-day distractions.
How does coaching differ from therapy?
Coaching and therapy serve different purposes. Unlike therapy, which focuses on healing past trauma, life coaching is typically future-focused and action-oriented. Coaching is aimed at helping you achieve personal or professional goals, build skills, and improve performance. Coaches do not diagnose or treat mental health conditions - and coaching is not a substitute for therapy.
The coach-client relationship differs from therapy. In coaching, you set the agenda, take risks, and try new approaches. Coaches offer honest, direct feedback and use powerful questions to help you grow.
The initial consultation
I start with a 30-minute complimentary initial consultation to discuss your reasons for seeking coaching and mutually determine if working together is a good fit.
If yes, then we’ll co-create the structure around goals, intentions, duration, and frequency of sessions.
Length & Commitment
Each individual coaching session, after the initial consult, typically lasts for 55 minutes thereafter. The length of coaching engagements will depend on your needs, goals, and investment budget.
Some clients need 1 - 3 sessions to gain clarity, develop a plan, and activate. Others commit to a longer coaching agreement based on navigating transitions, starting a new role, or wanting to go further to develop your leadership or communication skills.
What happens during
a session?
Through the use of focused, strategic, and learning questions, reflection, and values clarification; we will explore what has worked and any obstacles you have come across.
Specific strategies and action steps between meetings will be used to create options that you might not have thought of before, leverage strengths in new ways, and grow skills. This may include reading, journaling, interviewing, and activities designed to build new competencies.
Frequency
How often we meet is up to you and is unique to each individual. Action steps are generated from each session and between sessions while taking into consideration what frequency will allow you continued momentum.
