Coaching Agreement

I am here as a thinking partner, sounding board, and champion for you to focus on what you want and need from the process of the dissolution of marriage (divorce), to help you to move forward through the business of divorce, setting goals and taking actions to move forward, and doing the internal work necessary to go through the process of transition as productively as possible.  Here is what it will take for this coaching relationship to work for both of us...

 

I (as coach) promise to:

✓ Show up for you ready to work on your agenda without judgment.
✓ Send you reminder notices about your calls
✓ Respect your boundaries and ask for permission to talk about sensitive areas.
✓ Be flexible to the extent that my schedule allows in accommodating unforeseen events.
✓ Hold your reserved call times to the exclusion of everything else.  
✓ Ask you to stretch yourself and try on the negotiated coaching request.
✓ Make myself available to you for brief calls, review materials or answer emails between sessions.
✓ Be direct in my communication when appropriate – always with your permission.
✓ Commit to having the coaching process be an experience that really works for you!
✓ Be your champion!

 

As a client, you promise to:

  • Come to the call expecting to have a productive coaching session
  • Call my coach at the scheduled time.
  • Focus each session on the most important areas for my moving through and beyond the divorce process.
  • Give my coach at least 48 hours' notice if I need to reschedule our coaching sessions.
  • Accept responsibility that if I miss an appointment it will not be made up.
  • Take on my coaching commitments and do what I said I would do.
  • If a high conflict situation comes up notify your coach.
  • I will tell the truth to myself and to my coach.
  • Give my coach feedback on our coaching sessions including what is working and not working.
  • Be responsible for choosing my attitude no matter what the circumstances!
