F.A.Q.s
Five Frequently Asked Questions from Clients
1. What is coaching and how can it help me?
Coaching is a professional partnership that helps you grow as a leader, gain clarity, and take confident steps forward in your career. We focus on real-time challenges, your leadership goals, and building skills that support lasting growth. It’s a space to think, plan, and move forward—on your terms.
2. How is coaching different from psychotherapy?
Coaching and psychotherapy are not the same. Most executive coaches, including myself, are not trained in psychotherapy. Coaching is future-focused and goal-oriented—we look at where you are now, where you want to be, and how to get there. Psychotherapy, by contrast, often focuses on healing from past emotional experiences. Coaching is about action, clarity, and sustainable progress.
3. What kinds of goals can coaching help me with?
Coaching helps with both personal and professional goals. Common topics include:
Becoming a more confident leader
Improving communication and influence
Managing conflict with more ease
Navigating career transitions
Clarifying your leadership style
4. How long do I need to commit to coaching?
That depends on your goals. Some clients work with a coach for a few months to solve a specific challenge. Others stay longer to support ongoing development. We’ll work together to design the right cadence for you—there are no long-term commitments unless that’s what works best for your growth.
5. What can I expect in a coaching session?
Each session is a focused, one-on-one conversation tailored to your needs. We’ll explore current challenges, uncover patterns, and set clear next steps. Expect direct feedback, honest questions, and practical tools you can use right away. Most clients leave each session feeling clearer, stronger, and more motivated.
