Q: What is Life Coaching?
A: Life Coaching is a profession that is profoundly different from consulting, mentoring, advice, therapy, or counseling. The coaching process addresses specific personal projects, business successes, general conditions and transitions in the client's personal life, relationships or profession by examining what is going on right now, discovering what your obstacles or challenges might be, and choosing a course of action to make your life be what you want it to be.
Q: Who needs a Life Coach?
A: Anyone who feels they need help in achieving there goals.
Q: Is there an age limit?
A: No, not really, but I would recommend no one younger than 13 years of age. Everyone can benefit from a Life Coach
Q: How are sessions conducted?
A: Typically sessions are conducted via phone, although for some clients a face to face session may be a better match. Each client has individual needs and a Life Coach's job is to find the best solution for that client.
Q: How long do I need to see a Life Coach?
A: That question has 2 answers, first off a typical session last 45 minutes, with 3 sessions per month. The length of time you spend with your Life Coach is totally up to you. But typically once you have achieved your goal you are free to stop, but you may choose to care on and define new goals for yourself.
Q: How much is each session?
A:The Coaching fee is discussed on an individual basis, but the typical 45 minute session ranges from $60.00 to $100.00 per session. Payments are due in advance of the session, and typically paid monthly.
Q: Why is the fee pre-paid and monthly?
A: The fee is prepaid for several reasons, 1) You are apt to not miss the session if you have already paid for it 2) You are motivated to do your "homework" to make best use of your time 3) My time is valuable to me
Q: How can I pay?
A: At this time I accept Checks, Money Orders and Cash only. In the future I will accept credit cards.
Q: What kind of commitment do I need to make per week?
A: Besides your 45 minute weekly phone call (3 times per month) you should plan on a minute of 15 to 20 minutes per day for reflection and any "homework" assigned to you. Ultimately it is your session and you can decide for yourself how much effort you wish to put into it.
