Coaching is a word that many people associate with trainers or instructors. There is
also coaching for improvement of skills in particular area. The personal developing coaching
is a relatively new profession, run by certified coaches helping people who are on a
crossroad in their personal or professional life. The personal developing coaching is focused
on increasing the client’s self-awareness, assessing strengths and weakness and developing
a personalized plan for achieving well established goals. E.g. I am a professional member of
the ACP (the association of professional coaching) having over 30 years of experience in
psychology, clinical social work and nursing holding the relevant qualifications in all of the
above mention fields.

This session consists of 30 min where you will decide if I am the right coach for you and I will
decide if I am the coach for your goals. Once we agree to continue our work you have to
book your sessions via Calendly. I will email you our contract, that you have to read
carefully, sign and return to me before our 1st coaching session occur.

One session lasts 60 min.
• In this 1 hour we have ‘warm up’ few minutes where we will discuss what you have
done since our last session or not have done and explore the reasons for it.
• I will ask many questions but the 1st one will be ‘what you want to work on in today’s
session’. Please have your thinking done before our session to safe time. No worry if
you can’t formulate your goal before the session. Some people come with what they
believe is their goal and later reframe their objectives. Others don’t have clear goal
in their mind but move quickly during the session.
• The actual work consists of me asking questions and using different coaching
techniques aiming to encourage your deep thinking and challenge any inconsistency
from your side. I will support you to make your own personalized plan and explore
different strategies to accomplish the goal.
• The ‘closure’ takes few minutes by the end of the session where we will make an
accountability plan and give each other constructive feedback.
• Your confidentiality is paramount.

What makes me unique is my proven professional record. Not many
coaches can say they hold degrees in psychology, clinical social work and nursing and have
worked in those 3 fields successfully. What I do now is to combine the knowledge and
experience I have and use them for a good cause- You.
If you have any other questions, please let me know. I will do my best to answer as soon as
possible.
