How is coaching structured? (i.e. Over the phone? Sessions?)

The coaching relationship begins with the “Foundational Session” This session is done in person whenever possible and lasts 1 1/2- 2 hours. This session provides the basis for the coaching relationship. We’ll take a thorough look together at where you are now and begin to explore where you want to be. 

The ongoing sessions occur 3 times a month and last 40 minutes each. These sessions take place over the phone, but can occur in person upon request.

A three month commitment for the coaching relationship is required.

Is there a written agreement, or a contract?

Yes, a coaching agreement, with an accompanying information packet, is provided and will be discussed in the foundational session.
