COACHING AGREEMENT
RESPONSIBILITY FOR CHANGE
Gillian works from the core belief that we are all fully responsible for our own lives and decisions.
• The responsibility for change rests entirely with each of us
• Gillian will do everything possible to support you in achieving your own results and desired outcomes but we cannot make any changes for you
• You are responsible for the cause of all change in your life
• Gillian will work with you to identify solutions and offer suggestions, options and coaching based on their own personal experience, training and the information you give them
• All decisions and courses of action are entirely yours and you accept full responsibility for such decisions and actions
• You should always carefully evaluate the consequences of various options and act accordingly including seeking professional advice prior to taking actions where appropriate
CURRENT AND PAST TREATMENTS
You warrant that you do not have a history or current diagnosis of mental illness. Further, you warrant that you are not currently undergoing therapy or treatment of any kind by a medical doctor or licensed therapist, or that if you are you have gained the express written permission (by way of signed referral letter) of your therapist or medical doctor to receive coaching services. If you cannot make these warrants, you have an obligation (for the sake of your own wellbeing) to inform Gillian of any such history or current diagnosis so we can discuss if this is the most appropriate avenue for you. If at any time Gillian believes that therapy (other than coaching) is more appropriate for your situation we reserve the right to cancel your coaching sessions and refer you to an appropriate licensed therapist. All pre-paid and unused payment for coaching sessions will be refunded in this circumstance.
CONFIDENTIALITY
Gillian will not divulge that you are in a coaching relationship without your express consent. You, of course, are free to discuss the coaching relationship with anyone at any time. This confidentiality statement is valid only insomuch as the appropriate state or federal laws allow. In the case of an Employer sponsored coaching arrangement, the confidentiality statement will be subject to the Employer’s own company policy. The coaching relationship is not privileged insomuch as all records regarding the coaching sessions can be subpoenaed in rare circumstances by certain authorities.
SCHEDULING
All coaching sessions are scheduled in advance by direct agreement between you and Gillian. Your success and personal breakthroughs are our priority; please make them yours as well. If for any reason you cannot attend a scheduled coaching session you are fully responsible for informing Gillian and arranging alternate times. A minimum of 48 hours’ notice is required otherwise the session will be deemed to be forfeit. To avoid confusion it is necessary that you either speak to Gillian in person directly or via phone , alternatively contact (and receive reply) to an email.
REFERRAL AND REWARD PROGRAM
We know you will receive value from your coaching. There will be times when you want to share that value and the value of coaching with an associate, colleague, employee, family member, or other loved one. We love referrals and being able to help people associated with our existing clients to achieve the same kind of results and help them live better lives day to day. We also like to reward our existing clients for sharing the benefits of coaching and referring our business. Full details of the program are available from Gillian.
