FAQs
Do you have a coaching qualification?
Yes, I hold the Accredited Diploma in Transformative Coaching from the Animas Centre for Coaching. I am also credentialed by the International Coaching Federation at ACC level and am currently working towards my PCC qualification.
Do you only offer leadership coaching?
Yes. This is an area I feel passionately about, having taken great pride in my own career and professional identity and worked alongside senior executives for so many years.
What is 'Transformative Coaching'?
Different types of coaching elicit different types of change. For instance, 'Performance Coaching' drives change at a basic level within our immediate environment and our behaviour - it is outcome-driven and nothing more. 'Developmental Coaching' takes the experience a step further, unlocking change and growth within our skills and competencies, but leaving our identities unchanged. 'Transformative Coaching' elicits the most profound change of all, positively shifting who we are, our values and sometimes even our perceived purpose in life.
What is the difference between coaching and counselling?
Broadly speaking, coaching focuses on positive change whilst therapy looks at emotional difficulty. Or put another way, coaching defines goals and moves forward, whereas counselling tends to focus on processing and healing in the present.
Will I have to fill out paperwork if we decide to work together?
Yes, I have a contract which I'll ask you to sign digitally so we start off on the same page about how we'll work together. Corporate contracts are also co-signed by the sponsor.
