Individual Coaching

Personal Development Coaching

I offer a “no charge” exploratory session. What do I mean? This session is all about getting to know each other for the purpose of

1) Exploring if coaching is really what you need at this time;
2) Providing us with a chance to meet each other to get a better sense of each other, to see if there is a fit for us to work together.
3) Providing you with information about the coaching process, what to expect in a coaching session, and what will be required of you as we continue the coaching program.

If we agree to work together, we set up a time to meet for the “intake or entry” meeting.

The purpose of the entry or initial coaching meeting:

1) To learn about your topic, what you wish to work on.
2) To find out more about “you” in your topic.

The purpose of the second meeting:

1) To propose a program which will outline your developmental objectives and practices to achieve those objectives. This will equally be the opportunity to discuss what could get in the way of attending to your practices; and answer questions about your program. The program will always provide you with a view of how you currently operate/orient yourself in your topic and will also provide you with a new way of being in your topic.
2) Each coaching program is unique, designed specifically for you. It stems from a rigorous assessment resulting from the entry meeting. I will design a comprehensive coaching strategy and practices tailored to integrate all dimensions of you: mind, body, interpersonal, and spiritual.

Between sessions, you will be mindfully using your day-to-day experiences to strengthen your competencies related to your topic. This may be done through various practices, given to you in manageable steps, such as, journaling; self-observation exercises, breathing exercises, body awareness training etc….

Subsequent developmental sessions: (usually within 2 /3 week interval)

1) Each subsequent meeting is intended to strengthen your competencies and working at building new ones that will help you reach your goal. At first the changes and progress might be very subtle but as you work on your practices, you will notice through the power of reflection and journaling, changes happening. As you change, the world around you changes.

On average, programs are designed for at least six months but there are a number of variables, which can influence the length of working together. This will be reviewed as we go along.
