Individual Coaching
What is Coaching?
Coaching is a powerful process that can enable significant and lasting change in life or work. It provides a non-judgemental, open, and confidential space that focuses on the client’s own thoughts, challenges and desired outcomes and goals.
It is focused on the future, rather than the past.
Working with a coach can help you overcome the feeling of being ‘stuck’ or simply help you take your life or work to the next level. Different coaching models can be used to help you explore personal beliefs and values and how these may affect behaviour and your ability to move forwards. The solutions are often inside you, but coaching can help bring them to the fore.
​
Coaching differs from mentoring in that a mentor is someone who has deep knowledge of a certain topic / career area, who actively provides advice in that subject. Both have their value, and I can offer mentoring for specific individuals where I have the right skills set. However, when change happens through coaching it is often more deep-rooted and long lasting - it is the person being coached who has ultimately found their own pathway, they just needed to be guided to find it.
​
Trauma Informed Coaching
As well as the standard coaching qualifications I am also a certified Trauma Informed Coach (acreditied with the ICF), having completed 15 weeks of training. I have also completed a Trauma Informed Coaching Masterclass. I understand the neuroscience behind trauma and safely work with the client to create a space where they can start to focus on the future. Trauma Informed Coaching is certainly not a replacement for therapy. It is about being able to adequately support those if and when any trauma arises in the coaching space and knowing how and when to refer. It also is about supporting those who have already received, or are receiving therapy, in order to additionally support them in recovery and next steps.
Is coaching right for you?
Coaching is right for anyone who wants, and is ready to make a change. It can be related to your career, reaching your potential or achieving that work / life balance you always dreamed of. It may be related to self confidence or a change in your personal life. It could be intangible – you know you need change but are not sure exactly what that might be.
​
You may be so stressed that you can’t see how to change, but you know you need to, for your own wellbeing and health.
For some it may be straightforward, for others it may be a journey.
​
For coaching to make a difference, you need to be ready to make the change.
Practicalities and Pricing
Method
Method
I work remotely via phone or online sessions. I occasionally offer face to face sesssions depending on client and location.
​
As many of my clients are spread all over the world, most of my current practice is online and I can be flexible on timing to allow for different time-zones.
​
Fees
I offer reduced rates for those on lower incomes. Contact me and we will discuss your needs and circumstances
I generally recommended 6 sessions - though packages can be tailored accordingly, depending on you.
Practicalities
The first step is to have a FREE exploratory call, lasting up to half an hour. During this initial discussion, we will talk about your situation, the appropriateness of coaching for your needs. I will also answer any questions you may have.
After that, and on mutual agreement to pursue coaching together, we will agree a suitable package of sessions and confirm frequency and method/ location. I usually recommend 6 sessions of an hour in length, though this is flexible and dependent on your situation.
​
You will be asked to fill out a ‘coaching agreement’ form, clarifying confidentiality and commitment of both parties.
​
All conversations are confidential, and your data will always be protected.
