How we will work together
From my experience, I recommend a minimum of 8 sessions because it allows enough time to address your challenges, build on your strengths, and create lasting change.
How we will work together
I will work with you for 8 weeks through a weekly phone or video call, scheduled at your convenience.
The format of the eight sessions is as follows:
- Session 1: We discuss, in depth, your family context and the challenges you face.
- Session 2: We consider all of your strengths and what is currently working in your situation.
- Session 3: Based on your core values, we develop your vision for your preferred future.
- Sessions 4 – 7: Using your strengths and those of your family, we co-construct one or two practical action steps per week. These steps are designed to move you towards realising your vision.
- Session 8: We review the coaching process and discuss how to sustain the progress made.
If desired, a follow-up email after each coaching session is included. This will summarise the key points we discussed and remind you of the action steps you intend to implement before the next coaching call
One parent may take advantage of parent coaching or couples can participate together.
Why 8 sessions?
The 8-session coaching package is designed to provide you with a balanced approach—enough time to make real progress while ensuring that you can integrate changes into your everyday life.
This timeframe allows us to work together in a structured yet flexible way, so you can see tangible results and continue to build on them long after our work together ends.
Here’s why 8 sessions is ideal:
- Thorough Exploration: The first session sets the foundation by exploring your family’s context and the challenges you’re facing.
- Strengths-Based Approach: We spend time recognizing and building on what’s already working well in your family.
- Vision Development: Together, we’ll create a clear vision of your preferred future based on your core values.
- Practical Action: Over the next four sessions (4-7), we’ll co-create small, actionable steps each week that align with your vision.
- Sustained Progress: With regular check-ins and adjustments, we ensure steady momentum towards your goals.
- Final Reflection: The 8th session will focus on reviewing your journey, reflecting on progress made, and discussing how to continue the positive changes independently.
- Ongoing Support: After each session, you’ll receive a follow-up email summarising key points and reminding you of your next steps, helping to keep you on track.
