FAQ's

What is the difference between counselling, mentoring and coaching?

Counselling and therapy focus on dealing with past hurts and trauma, bringing them to the surface and working together to heal them. A counsellor or therapist brings specialised techniques to enable you to safely explore areas of your life where you are not coping.

In mentoring, you arrive expecting the mentor to be an expert on your topic. You will be gaining from the wisdom and experience of the mentor in order to progress forwards in your chosen area.

Coaching is an equally safe space to counselling, but a fundamental difference is that you are not coming to coaching needing to be 'fixed'. If a coach recognises that you are needing counselling, they will refer you to a trained counsellor. In coaching, you form a partnership of equals with your coach. This is where it differs from mentoring.

A coach is not there to give you advice or suggestions, but to work with you, enabling you to be curious and to find the answers for yourself. A good coach will be able to work well with anyone, whether it be a new Mum, a chief executive or a drama teacher. If you are ready to explore your options and you are ready to work hard on your present and future goals, you are ready for coaching!

I'm not a woman in a male-dominated field, can I work with you?

Certainly! My clients have ranged from customer service personnel to managing directors. What is important is that you are open-minded, ready and wanting to make a change and would like support to do it.

Do I need career or executive coaching?

Career and executive coaching may cover many of the same topics. The main difference is the level of responsibility you have in your company, so the relative financial benefit to the company of you undertaking the work we do.

Where can I have coaching?

Your sessions can take place in any quiet space where you feel comfortable to talk openly. For example, in a coffee shop away from your usual area, remotely via Zoom or Teams, face to face at your work or at another agreed location.

I'm based in York, North Yorkshire if you wish to meet face to face, but the majority of my clients since lockdown have chosen to be coached remotely.

What is your most popular programme?

My most successful clients initially book in for a 6 session immersion where there is time to see and reflect on progress towards your goals.

The most popular starting point with clients is to sign up for a 3 session dive in. We will review progress at the end of the 3rd session against your goals. About 50% of my clients continue with at least another 3 session block, but you are also able to book for a subsequent 6 session immersion.

What happens if I realise I want more than 1 type of coaching?
You might sign up for a block of career coaching sessions but you are able to work on any other topic if you wish to in each session. We may craft a plan together at the start of the block, but if something changes then don't be afraid to change your goals at any point.
How much does working with you cost?
Head over to the 1:1 coaching page to find out more. My fees start from £149 for a single session.
How does your payment plan work?
If you have agreed to a 6 session dive in, you are able to pay 50% upfront and then 50% before the start of the 4th conversation.
What notice do I need to give if I am unable to attend a session?
Unless you are unwell, 24 hours notice is required for session cancellation. Late cancellation will be subject to a minimum of 50% session fee.
I have another question, where do I go?
