Each session will usually begin with us prioritizing and agreeing on a goal that we will work on in that session. Goals and areas can include your well-being, career, life transitions, leadership skills, relationships, or getting clarity about about yourself, your life, or your purpose.

 

Our sessions will include exploring ideas and options, gaining new perspectives, enhancing understanding, and progressing toward your goals. Everything is completely up to you - you decide what to focus on and what is of value to you.

 

Your responsibilities

• Take full responsibility for yourself and your actions - the more you put into the process, the more you'll get out of it.

• Be fully present, open-minded, and curious throughout the process.

• Allow me to explore, question, and respectfully challenge self-limiting attitudes, mindsets, thoughts, and behaviors.

• Be prepared for each session by having an idea of what you want to work on and providing an update of recent developments and completed tasks, or of obstacles that you have encountered since our last meeting.

• Set an intention to 'enjoy the ride' and stay positive. It is all about your growth journey!

 

My commitment to you

I will be ready to work with you at the agreed time, be open-minded, non-judgmental, focused, considerate, respectful, and prepared. I also commit to provide support through careful listening, questioning, and constructive challenge to assist you in your development. In addition, I will incorporate interventions from both positive psychology and coaching psychology when appropriate, and I may suggest relevant tasks that could support you in the achievement of your goals.

​

A little bit about my approach

I am an integrative strength-based coach. This means that I see people through the lens of their strengths, and in addition to empowering you and helping you work toward your goals, I strive to help you build a life of meaning and purpose, a network of supportive relationships, an emotional and mental resilience, and a routine of self-care.

​

Confidentiality and ethics

I comply with the professional and ethical guidelines of ICF (International Coaching Federation).

 

Whatever is discussed in our coaching sessions will remain confidential, within the usual parameters of client risk. The only three conditions under which confidentiality will not be maintained are illegal activity, danger to self, or danger to others. In these cases, I will always try my best to discuss the issue with you before disclosing any information.

​

The bottom line

Our sessions are meant to support you, your agenda, and your priorities at all times. Coaching sessions are based on a structured conversation with a skilled professional who is there to listen to you and to offer you a supportive, positive, and non-judgmental space to explore and to grow.
