Coaching
What is Coaching?
I think of coaching as a professional relationship in which the Coach is hired to aid the Client find easier, better, more effective ways of solving the same old problems. Using the Client's strengths in a framework of support and structure, the Coach helps propel the Client to play a bigger game on the field called "Life".
Although I have training in psychotherapy, coaching is not psychotherapy. I think of the differences in this way: where psychotherapy focuses on the past and present coaching focuses on the present and future.
Psychotherapy asks, "How did you get here?", while coaching asks, "Where do you want to go?".
The coaching paradigm is not for you if you are currently experiencing significant emotional distress or mental problems. It might be for you if you would like some structure, support, and accountability in making your important dreams a reality.
In the coaching relationship, the power and responsibility for success is held within the framework of the relationship. The Client takes responsibility for attending sessions as scheduled, completing agreed upon coaching fieldwork, and speaking up if s/he would like to be coached differently. The Coach takes responsibility for asking questions that move the Client into action, and for treating the Client in a respectful, professional manner. The Coach also takes responsibility for seeing the Client's potential, and helping the Client reach further than s/he thought possible.
Coaching proceeds on a monthly basis and the coaching structure includes the following:
An initial (60 minute) consultation for $250 (applied to first month's coaching fees if a monthly agreement is signed).
Three weekly 30-40 minute coaching sessions by phone.
Unlimited brief email "check ins" between scheduled sessions.
Monthly Individual Coaching Fees range between $300-$600 per month, based on length & frequency of meetings. Payments accepted by check, Visa/Mastercard, or Paypal.
I do offer a group coaching option to finish your dissertation. Email coach6-22144@autocontactor.com for details.
All coaching sessions are held by phone at a mutually convenient day/time.
I work with no more than 15 individual clients at any time, so I have adequate time, energy, and resources to direct towards my clients' success.
I limit my groups to no more than 5-6 people each so every participant has an opportunity for individualized attention within the group context.
While many of my clients have made incredible progress in the first three months of coaching, many continue coaching with me for 6-9 months, sometimes more. After several months, clients may choose to meet less frequently, which I am glad to honor with prior notice.
Coaching is not covered by health insurance though it might be eligible as a tax deductible expense. Check with your tax preparer or other professional.
