Words of Wisdom
×´It's not in the stars to hold our destiny, but in ourselves."
William Shakespeare
Your time to thrive
I'm Karen, a qualified coach who can help you clarify what's important to you. Together, we will look at your values, beliefs and attitudes, examine what obstacles you might face and how you can move forward to achieve your goals. As human beings, we are all works in progress. We all want to thrive. Coaching is a process to support you to discover the powers within you to create your best life.
Services
Face-to-face coaching - in cafes
Our coaching conversations take place in quiet indoor spaces, such as cafes or hotels. I use locations with a relaxed atmosphere that offer privacy. I am based in Farnham, Surrey, and am happy to travel up to 30 minutes by car.
Online coaching via Zoom
Grab your own choice of hot or cold drink and settle down into a comfortable place for an online Zoom coaching session. Set aside a convenient time to focus on just you and your future goals. Sessions are 45 minutes long.
Face-to-face coaching - in nature
As an alternative to meeting indoors, we can meet outside in natural surroundings, such as a park or woodland, for a walk or just to sit and hold the coaching conversation in a green space.
My Approach
Confidentiality
Confidentiality is at the core of my coaching practice. I prioritise privacy and trust, ensuring that your personal information and sessions remain completely confidential.
Collaboration
My approach to coaching is non-directive. This means that I seek not to give you advice but to work in a collaborative way to help you unlock the solutions you need to achieve your goals. By using enquiry and reflection, I will support you to increase your own awareness of what you want in life and to reach greater clarity.
Cost-effective
The first session - often called a chemistry session - to see if coaching is for you and if you feel I would suit you as a coach - is free. Sessions are 45 minutes long. From session 2, the cost is £60 for a 45-minute session. Sessions must be paid 7 days in advance and can be re-arranged with 24 hours' notice. Payment is to be made by bank transfer.
