What is Coaching
It starts with me holding hope and encouragement for you.
I provide the space for you to talk about yourself.
My approach is inclusive, accepting, working with you, being gently interested, accepting where you are while envisaging your forward progress.
I help elicit your own history in a clear way even if you might have had some difficulty communicating that.
I apply the premise that ‘the distance between you & others is the distance between me & myself’.
