"Professional coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that helps clients produce extraordinary results in their lives, careers, businesses or organizations. Through the process of coaching, clients deepen their learning, improve their performance, and enhance their quality of life." –International Coach Federation, ICF

Coaching will assist you to:

• Develop a vision about which you feel excited
• Clarify your measurable goals
• Maintain a commitment to your success
• Focus on your designed goals
• Gain effective skills and strategies
• Remove road blocks to your success

Many things come from coaching, but most important, you:

• Take commitment to yourself and your goals more seriously
• Take more effective and focused actions immediately
• Stop putting up with what is dragging you down
• Create momentum so it’s easier to get results
• Set better goals than you would have without the coach
• Develop new skills, which translate into more success

A coach will:

• Objectively listen with only you in mind
• Support and follow up with you, engaging your power to follow through on agreements to yourself
• Hold your values, your life purpose, your vision up as a gauge for decisions
• Compassionately listen without judgment and evaluation providing you with the caring truth
• Champion your efforts and successes so you stay on track

Coaching is convenient and easily accessible. Sessions with your coach are conducted by telephone. Whether you are at home, in your office, or on vacation, you have access to your coach. Wherever you are, your coach is there with you.

Sessions have a structure and process customized to the client’s needs and preference, designed with the intent on maximizing results. The initial contact typically begins with a personal interview to assess your current opportunities and challenges, define the scope of the relationship, identify priorities for action, and establish specific desired outcomes.

The schedule is set in advance with each session lasting a previously established length of time. Between coaching sessions, you may be asked to complete specific actions that support the achievement of your personally prioritized goals. The coach may provide additional resources in the form of relevant articles, checklists, assessments, or models to support your thinking and actions. The duration of the coaching relationship varies depending on the individual’s personal needs ands preferences.

Coaching is not therapy. Lisa integrates her action and goal-oriented skills developed as a psychotherapist without providing therapy within the coaching relationship. Coaching is about taking action, making choices and changes and moving forward with the awareness of the individual’s strengths, barriers to overcome, and new skills to develop.
