COACHING
Coaching is partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.
Professional coaches provide an ongoing partnership designed to help clients produce fulfilling results in their personal and professional lives. Coaches help people improve their performances and enhance the quality of their lives.
Coaches are trained to listen, to observe and to customize their approach to individual client needs. They seek to elicit solutions and strategies from the client; they believe the client is naturally creative and resourceful. The coach's job is to provide support to enhance the skills, resources, and creativity that the client already has.

Coaching sessions can be conducted in person or by telephone, with e-mail offered as an added means of contact and accountability. Most often the process begins with an initial two-hour intake. During the intake, the coach asks background questions to get to know the client and powerful, open-ended questions to get to the heart of the client’s values, goals and desires.
