How does Coaching work?
One of the first things I will ask you is:
'What are you hoping to achieve by getting a coach?'
'How would your life be different, what would you see, hear how would you feel?’
Then we find out what is stopping you going after your 'goal'. I will help you through exercises, listening and asking the right questions to overcome any of those obstacles. Through weekly one hour long telephone sessions I'll help you unlock your true potential, go after your goal and overcome any hurdles along the way. I am there for you via e-mail in between sessions, to celebrate your successes and help you in the event of any unforeseen complications. We'll use stepping stones, in each session getting a little closer to your ultimate dream. As your coach I am 100% committed to your success. My coaching sessions are results oriented and I will always keep an eye on what you are trying to achieve and help you focus. I am supportive and utterly curious about your beliefs, values and what makes you tick.I'll help you challenge and overcome some of the beliefs that you are currently holding about yourself and life if they are limiting you in your choices.

The history of Coaching
The concept of the professionally trained coach is running his or her own practice originated in the USA. Many professional development and self help techniques can be traced back to a few individuals who took an idea and packaged it to make it accessible to all.
Coaching is the result of a gentle evolution which owes much to these other techniques and, like all the best ideas, has grown in response to a need.
Until economical transport was readily available and long before modern communications were developed, there was probably no need for a coach. In those days’ large families who usually lived all their lives in the same neighborhood, there were plenty of relatives and older siblings to call on for help and advice.
The first popular self-help books were published in the 1930s. The post-war years saw a boom not only in these but also in the growth of various forms of analysis and therapies. Some of these worked well but were usually limited to addressing a single medical or mental condition. A few were less effective because they created a dependency on the analyst.
That was more or less the situation until the 1980s when therapists realized there were many life situations that embraced more than one issue and needed a wider view. The smaller and fragmented family, the rise in divorce rates and an awareness of the importance of a holistic approach to matters that were often presented as ‘stress-related symptoms’ led to some of these therapists to review their way of working.
The therapists became coaches, their patients became clients and the cocaching profession was born. It's growth has come almost totally from 'word of mouth' recommendations. In other words, the results have created the phenomena;world wide demand that now exists.
