How do I know you are a qualified Coach in all your modalities?

I understand how daunting it must be trying to find someone who is right for you. It does seem like there are many people calling themselves Life Coaches out there! Some have absolutely no business doing so at all, so please do your homework!

I have trained at an Accredited Life Coach Training School and I am approved by The Association For Coaching (one of the two accrediting bodies for qualified coaches - the other being the ICF). So, you can be assured that I am Certified and Accredited.

Can I call you for a chat to see if coaching is for me and to ask any questions?

I am working with clients at my practice all day so am confined by the pressure of time. If you have any questions, do contact me via the 'ContactMe' Form and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Your first session is your opportunity to guage if coaching is for you and there is no obligation for you at all, or pressure from me, to continue if you feel that counselling or other therapy would better suit you.

How many sessions will you need?

This depends on how much support you need. You will begin to feel better almost immediately; many of my clients feel so much better after just one or two sessions but most clients come for 3 - 6 sessions. It's entirely up to you.

Do I have to sign up to a long course of sessions?

No, you don't. I want you to feel completely comfortable and have flexibility with the sessions. So, I won't tie you into a course. You can choose to have as many or as few sessions as you need. I do encourage you to book in advance though, as I do tend to get booked up weeks in advance.

Do you offer a free initial consultation?

No, but I'm always happy to answer any questions you may have, just send them to me via the 'Contact Me' Form. 'Free' consultations are usually given by coaches offering lengthy and expensive 'package plans' which I don't tie you to.

I have every confidence that you will benefit greatly from our sessions and because they are so affordable and flexible, I know that you will love this approach.

What type of sessions do you offer?

Coaching can be provided by
Face to Face in my large and spacious Coaching Room, or virtually with Zoom, Skype or Facetime.
Fees: £70 per hour for 1 to 1 sessions.

What are the benefits of Zoom sessions?

With Zoom, we can see and hear each other as if we are in the same room. We can connect just as effectively as if we were together.
You may find you are more comfortable in your own surroundings.
Wherever you are, you can connect with me - another town, another county, another country!
You will save time and money as there is no travelling involved.
It's easier to schedule into your diary – sessions can be slotted more easily around your other commitments.

Where are your Face-to-Face sessions held?

I have a lovely spacious, airy and comfortable dedicated Coaching Room which has been purpose built to ensure your privacy, comfort and convenience in Broomfield, Chelmsford. There is easy parking and I have coffee making facilities, waiting room and toilet.

What should I expect in a session?

A warm welcome and a cappuccino to start with! No seriously, you will get support and encouragement. I will be there to motivate and guide you and listen intently, but I will also give you a kick up the bum if you need it! You will leave our sessions feeling in a much better place and with plenty to positive stuff to process.

How do I pay?

A 50% deposit is payable to secure your appointment booking. 24hrs notice is required to cancel/change your appointment or the full amount will be charged in full without exception, as this time has been allotted to you.

The balance of Face to Face sessions can be paid for by cash or card.

Zoom or virtual sessions must be paid for in full at the time of booking to secure your appointment. (For refund info - see refund policy)
