Getting Started:

Each new coaching relationship begins with an in-depth in-take session to clarify the client's short- and long-term goals, and to gain a better understanding of their specific needs, values and challenges.

Initial Sessions:

The initial interview and following coaching sessions take place either face-to-face or via telephone, depending on geographic location and personal preference.

Frequency:

Most coaching calls are scheduled weekly or bi-weekly, for 60 minutes each. During these calls, Angela monitors the client's progress towards their goals, reviews their results and achievements from one call to the next, and aligns herself with the new focus and orientation the client brings to each call.

Contract Length:

The length of a coaching contract varies, but most commonly clients stay engaged for 6-12 months. Angela's shortest coaching contract is 3 months.
