Questions and answers

Here is a list of frequently asked questions with answers to help you understand what I can do for you in terms of building your confidence and coaching you to reach your potential.

What is NLP?

NLP is the practice of understanding how people organise their thinking, feeling, language and behaviour to produce the results they do.  It is regarded in the coaching industry as non-intrusive and leaves you feeling uplifted,  not open and raw as some counselling can do.

What sort of things do people need coaching for?

Good question. People have all sorts of different issues that need addressing. It could be that you are looking for an answer to a career path, you want to build your self-confidence, you live with parental issues and don't know how to deal with them. Whatever challenge you are currently facing, once you have made the decision to move forward with your life, we  discuss it and we make a plan about the next positive stage of your life!

Can I have coaching sessions on the weekend or during the evenings?

I will always do my best to fit in with your lifestyle. Remember, to make the most of your sessions, you will need a little privacy and be free from distractions.

How long are the coaching sessions?

Sessions are normally between 40 minutes and 1 hours. Sometimes, when we have our first meeting this can take a little longer. We need time to get to know each other, talk about what you would like to gain from the coaching sessions.

What happens if you can't help me?

The idea of an informal consultation to begin with means that we can sit together, discuss what you expect from your coaching and discover how we can work together. If I beleive that there is something that is too complex or outside of my realms of expertise, I have peers with different types of experience that I would be happy to refer you to. It may be that during our first "get together" we find that we don't click. That's ok. Not everyone can gel instantly and you are welcome to say so. All I want is for you to find a way forward. After all, this is all about you and you have been brave enough to take the first step. 

How much are the sessions?

Your first consultation is free of charge! It gives us time to get to know each other a little, establsih some rapport and see if we will suit each other. After that, each session is around 50 minutes long and they start at £65 per session. Whilst there is still a pandemic, this will be over Zoom.
