About Coaching
By providing tailored guidance, constructive feedback, and a supportive environment, coaching empowers individuals to unlock their potential, enhance their skills, and achieve their goals with greater confidence and effectiveness.
Why have a Coach?
Research has shown that coaching can have many positive impacts and potential benefits.
By hiring a Coach, you get access to someone with experience to help you see what is holding you back. They can help you establish boundaries, achieve personal and business life goals, and plan new courses of action to follow. Having someone by your side, guiding and supporting you through new levels of self-development, can make all the difference.
What Is a Coach?
A Coach acts as a sounding board, cheerleader, and accountability partner. Using questions to provoke thought rather than give advice and asking rather than telling, they encourage clients to reflect on their experiences and behaviours. During the coaching sessions, the Coach helps identify strengths and development needs and equips you with tools, knowledge, and new ways of thinking, feeling, and acting to develop yourself.
What is Coaching?
Coaching is a process that facilitates change. It is a partnership where you and the Coach focus on the topic you have brought to the relationship. The primary goal is to develop an individual or team to become the “best version of themselves” and improve self-awareness, resilience, and effectiveness.
The coaching relationship is one that is strictly confidential and professional. It is based on mutual respect, trust, with the freedom to express thoughts and opinions freely. It is a conscious, self-led, and evolving process mainly focusingon the present and the future.
What Coaching is not?
​
Coaching is not teaching, telling, advising, or instructing. The objective of coaching is to help a person achieve their goal, whereas the objective of therapy is to help a person address and resolve problems.
-
Coaching is not therapy, psychoanalysis, or counselling. It is about creativity, motivation, performance, and action.
-
Coaching is not mentoring, advisory, or consulting. It develops a client’s motivations, best practices, and resources.
-
Coaching is not teaching or training. Information discovery supports the client in developing their insights, skills, and knowledge.
What are the responsibilities of a client?
Coaching is helpful and life-changing for most people, but only if the person is willing to do their part. A client needs not only the desire to engage in the coaching journey but also a commitment to the process, to show up to do the work that needs to happen both during and outside the sessions. Success can’t happen without you.
My Coaching
​
A passion for well-being and development drives my coaching work. I aim to inspire and motivate clients to embrace new sustainable behaviours and practices that enable higher performance levels in their personal and professional lives.
Using the integral approach allows me to work with the whole person and tailor a workable personalised coaching program for lasting change. It is a developmental approach that facilitates deeper self-awareness, enabling capacity building and providing lasting long-term growth. Through thought-provoking conversations within a supportive relationship, a client can start to understand their behaviour patterns and contribution better.
An Enneagram questionnaire
​
As each client is unique and requires a different coaching approach, determining your Enneagram type is ideal for anyone starting a coaching journey with me. Knowing your type helps me to understand the motivation behind your choices that impact your overall well-being. It allows me to choose specific development approaches and paths to optimise the process for reflective and lasting results.
