Consulting an integral life coach entails having honest, unbiased interactions with someone who has comprehensive training and knowledge about models of coaching based on adult learning, psychological approaches and philosophy. Coaching is future focused, and works on the assumption that you are whole and filled with potential. My role is to empower you to explore and release that potential.
Coaching does not encourage dependence, but a way for you to be self empowered. As a coach, I facilitate your learning, enabling you to develop skills which help you achieve success as you define it. Coaching is a collaborative process of facilitating your ability to self-direct learning and growth, and is visible by lasting changes in self-understanding, self-concept and behaviour (Stober & Parry, 2005).
In our careers, relationships and personal enterprises we all encounter difficulties we would like to surmount. These can be overcome by creating a coaching programme which is driven by your agenda and needs, focusing on what you want to achieve. In doing this together, you gain a thinking partner to help you identify what changes you want to bring into your current reality. Cooperatively we clarify your visions, explore options and plan the actions you can take to bring about your desired goals.
Your commitment to action is essential to your success. I am here to refine and energise your intentions until they emerge as your reality. Coaching helps move you from awareness to responsibility to action to results.
Most coaching is done by telephone, either weekly or fortnightly, after an initial face-to-face session.
Coaching topics may include:
- Improving personal or professional relationships, for individuals or couples
- Becoming clear about life purpose and direction
- Raising self awareness, self-worth and confidence
- Improving your diet, physical fitness and health
- Enhancing intimacy and communication
- Deepening your spiritual/religious understanding
- Undoing sources of strain, such as self-limiting habits
- Living with enthusiasm
