OUR APPROACH

Coaching is a practical form of learning, where I support you in encouraging your personal growth and development. It normally takes the form of a series of structured conversations with the aim of helping you to get from where you are now to where you want to be. I also offer one-off intensive breakthrough sessions, using advanced NLP techniques to bring about accelerated change.

What it is about my coaching that will bring out the best in you:

  • I create a relationship with you (the client) that is based on truth, openness and trust.
  • I maintain a supportive attitude and commitment to you
  • I listen without judgement – it’s not my role to approve or disapprove of the way you live your life or run your business 
  • With me, you can show the full extent of your emotions
  • I am totally focussed on you – what you think and your experiences
  • I believe that you are capable of better results, and that you can find the best solutions
  • I hold a ‘mirror’ to you, objectively showing you the truth about yourself, your strengths, where you sell yourself short and the impact you have on those around you

What it involves

You may be surprised to learn that more than 90% of coaching is done over the phone or by e-mail. Time is often a huge constraining factor in our lives and may even be one of the main reasons why you are seeking the help of a coach! Consequently you may be unable to attend regular face-to-face meetings. An initial face to face meeting, lasting 1-1.5 hours, followed by a series of regular telephone calls (of up to an hour) is a common model. Many clients are surprised and delighted to find just how powerful telephone coaching can be. However at Tea & Empathy I can be flexible to suit your needs, preferences and budget. Call me on 01347 810035 to discuss which approach is best for you.

**New for February 2010 Tea & Empathy will be also offering an online coaching package called the ALIVE programme. Available as a Bronze self guided package, Silver interactive package with coach input or as a premium Gold package, online coaching is a flexible and affordable alternative. Call me on 01347 810035 for more details.

Why choose Tea & Empathy

Personal recommendation and referral is always a good basis on which to choose someone to work with. Check out what my clients say about me on the ‘client testimonial’ page.  I take a fresh and practical approach and care deeply about seeing my clients succeed - your success is my success. I will listen to your needs, not just sell you my products. I have a strong commitment to:

  • Walk the talk – I'm not asking you to go through anything I've not been through myself. I work with my own personal coach, I challenge my own beliefs and assumptions and reach for my dreams. I know this stuff works!
  • Conduct myself in a professional manner, respecting confidentiality, acting with integrity and honouring commitments. I am punctual and continually seek to improve and update my professional knowledge and skills.
