Frequently Asked Questions

What happens in a coaching session?

In the first coaching session, I focus on understanding the client and encourage them to identify and set a goal they would like to achieve. For the remainder of the journey, I collaborate with them to achieve that goal; this is done through asking powerful questions, prompting reflection, and instilling accountability.

Is coaching the same as psychotherapy?

No. Psychotherapy focuses on addressing mental and emotional issues and often involves exploring past experiences to understand the present. In contrast, coaching is more action and future-oriented, focusing on removing obstacles to growth, enhancing performance, and achieving goals.

How long does coaching last?

Individual sessions last between 60 to 90 minutes. Depending on the client’s commitment, the number of sessions and frequency will be determined at the beginning of the journey.

Do I need coaching?

Coaching can benefit you if you feel there is something you want to achieve and do not know how or where to start. Wanting to make effective decisions, managing stress effectively, setting healthy boundaries, boosting performance, and redefining yourself are just some of the things coaching can help you with.

There are different types of coaches, so which one should I choose?
