I'm looking forward to working with you to make positive changes in your life! Other than in very rare situations (see Policies section below), any information you provide here or in session will be kept completely confidential. If you have any questions regarding this form, I’m happy to answer them for you. Please review the policies at the bottom of the page. Let’s get started!
Consent for Service and Confidentiality Information
Please be aware that the Coach-Client relationship is not considered a legally confidential relationship (as is the case with medical and legal professions) and so communications are not subject to the protection of any legally recognized privilege. However, as your Coach/Facilitator, I promise not to disclose any of the information your share in coaching. I will also not disclose your name as a reference without your consent. There are situations in which it is not possible to maintain privacy. They include:
- If there is a determination that you pose a serious risk of harm to yourself or someone else;
- If there is reason to believe that a child or other dependent individual is being abused; or
- If the law requires the release of information in your file (e.g., due to a legal subpoena)
Guidelines for Effective Coaching
Collaboration + Feedback:
Constructive feedback is always helpful and is welcome. I encourage my clients to provide ongoing feedback to make sure we're on the same page and that the coaching process is as helpful as possible. A benefit of coaching is that you have someone in your corner who is working right along side you in helping you to make positive changes. With that said, it is up to you to take what we discuss in coaching and apply it to your life. I respect your autonomy and will support your choices and decisions, knowing that all action that you take as a result of coaching is ultimately your responsibility.
Processing and Exploring Between Sessions:
Following a session, I will suggest relevant online worksheets, which are located on my website. They are designed to help you explore on your own topics that are covered in-session. Processing new ideas, practicing skills, and applying them to your own life between sessions are key elements in successful coaching if you want to achieve the maximum benefit.
