FAQ:
WHAT IS LIFE COACHING?
Life Coaching is a professional partnering with clients through an inspirational and creative process that encourages and empowers them to define, implement, and maximize the positive changes they want to make in their personal and professional lives.
In the collaborative process of coaching, clients deepen their learning and awareness about themselves. They enhance their enjoyment of life through self-discovery. They improve the quality of their day to day lives and relationships, and feel empowered to make the changes they want to see happen.
Through observation, active listening, and powerful questioning a coach is able to help clients:
· Discover, clarify, and align with what they want to accomplish
· Encourage and deepen their self-discovery
· Create greater focus and awareness of their choices
· Build on their strengths, creativity, and confidence
· Elicit solutions and strategies that are obtainable
· Move into action steps
· Devise a plan for how they will proceed when faced with setbacks or self-doubt
· Challenge themselves to reach further
· Be responsible and accountable for the changes they want to make

WOULD LIFE COACHING OR COUNSELLING BE BETTER FOR ME?
We all encounter various difficulties in our lives and/or relationships. Sometimes a life coach is better suited, and other times a counsellor/therapist is necessary.
I encourage clients to reach out to both professions so they can make an informed decision as to which one might be more in alignment with the challenges they are facing and what they are wanting to implement. I also recommend talking to more than one coach/counsellor to get a feel for who might work best with you and what you are experiencing.

IS LIFE COACHING COVERED UNDER PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE PLANS?
Life coaching is not covered under insurance plans at this time. Coaching is a growing profession, and hopefully will be considered in the near future. I would check with your insurance provider to see what your plan includes.
WHAT IS A COMPLIMENTARY COACHING SESSION?
Your Complimentary Introduction Session is a 30 minute conversation to get to know each other and what you would like to achieve during our sessions. We will talk about what your goals are, how the process works, what’s expected from our sessions, and any concerns or questions you may have.
This is not the start of your coaching expedition just yet. It’s simply a time to get enthusiastic about the next chapter in your life. A place to begin. To turn to a new page and map out the best path and strategy based on what you want to achieve. We will also discuss payment, session times, and fill out any necessary paperwork to move forward.
The complimentary session helps you decide if coaching is right for you, and whether I’m a well-matched coach for your needs.

Kim is my go-to person when I need perspective and want to make changes! Her sense of humour and caring personality helps me to not only see situations in a different light, but empowers me to take the next steps forward; as well as she keeps me accountable to what I say I want to change, which isn’t an easy task for me. I have become a wiser, more caring, and committed person because of her. A.C. – Mississauga
