“I particularly appreciate the way Alma allows me plenty of space while at the same time keeping me on track. She uses her intuition well and will often elicit new insights that help me to move forward. I do not find self-disclosure particularly easy so the fact that we get such good results is a tribute to her ability to create a sacred space where I feel safe, supported and valued”. Hazel, Writer/Trainer
Coaching with Alma
What is coaching and how does it work?
I describe coaching as an ongoing confidential conversation between two people who trust and respect each other. Coaching works on the understanding that we have the resources we need within us, but that we also need some outside support to help us access them, to facilitate our progress. I will support and challenge you. You can use me as your sounding board to discuss, ideas, options and possibilities. I will observe your current way of being and ask powerful and incisive questions to help you create new perspectives and access solutions.I will listen to your concerns, to what your soul is yearning for and the goals you want to achieve. Taking time out to explore issues, plan goals and think aloud with a coach is a very powerful process.
We will create some actions for you to practice between coaching sessions. Behaviour doesn’t change unless we develop new practices.
The International Coach Federation (ICF) has this definition of coaching:
’An ongoing partnership that helps clients produce fulfilling results in their personal and professional lives. Through the process of coaching, clients deepen their learning, improve their performance, and enhance their quality of life.’
