FAQ's about Coaching
Development Coaching
/dɪˈvel.əp.mənt ˈkoʊtʃɪŋ/
def. Development coaching is a collaborative process that helps individuals and organizations clarify goals, overcome obstacles, and create meaningful personal and professional growth. A skilled coach provides guidance, support, and accountability to help clients make real, lasting change.
What is the difference between coaching and therapy?
While both coaching and therapy provide support, their focuses differ. Therapy typically addresses and heals past emotional or psychological issues. Coaching, on the other hand, is focused on helping you achieve specific goals and improve your current situation.
What makes your coaching unique?
I have always possessed a distinctive ability to help people "see the forest for the trees". Many clients come to me having only considered a few pieces of the big picture. I specialize in uncovering hidden opportunities and helping you capitalize on them by expanding your perspective.
What else sets your coaching apart?
Accountability. Which is not necessarily holding your feet to the fire for failing to hit achievable benchmarks. It can include identifying where you might be getting in your own way, or bogging yourself down with counterproductive thought patterns or fixed false beliefs. I am not afraid to have the tough, constructive conversations if they become necessary.
Why do you believe in me?
Because I've been where you are, many times. I've faced life situations that seemed utterly hopeless. And I've met clients who felt permanently stuck, paralyzed by confusion, and unable to take action. What I've learned is that most people in these cases just need a "thought partner" (that's me!) to help guide them to the solutions or create the spark that will push them forward.
How do we begin?
It's simple. Click the "Contact" tab above to schedule a call or video chat. We'll take some time to get to know each other - ask me questions, share your story, and see if coaching feels like a good fit. If we're aligned, we'll scheduled your first session. And here's the best part - the first session is my gift to you. No sign-up, no contracts, no gimmicks. Coaching is best experienced, not just described. Let's get started!
What's the cost if we work together?
It depends. I realize that sounds vague, but it really does. Think of it like a kitchen remodel - are we just changing out the hardware on the cabinets, or are we redoing the entire kitchen? The cost varies depending on the complexity of what you want to achieve and how long we'll be working together.
Before we commit, we'll have a real conversation about your goals and agree on a plan that make sense. Coaching isn't one-size-fits-all...this will be tailored specifically to you.
