Coaching is not counseling.
- I don’t provide therapy to overcome disruptive painful influences from the past.
- I will help you build vision and move toward the future.
- We will not be reactively looking back.
- We will be proactively looking ahead.
- My primary focus with you is not about healing, it’s about growing.
- I focuses less on overcoming weakness, and more on building skills and strengths.
- Our relationship is less formal than the therapist-patient relationship.
- I see you as an equal to partner with.
- As a sage, I have experiences, perspectives, and knowledge that can be useful to you.
Confidential Coaching creates a special kind of relationship:
- We are starting a partnership with a purpose, marked by honesty, respect, and mutual goals.
- Like a servant, I seek to understand and assist you.
- You have dissatisfactions with your current state of life and you are uncertain about how to move forward into the future.
- I meet your desires by being a knowledgeable, vision-sensitive person who comes alongside you to provide a consistent guiding relationship.
As a Christian Coach:
- God—not human ingenuity—is at the core of our being.
- God is the guide for all coaching work.
- God will help you make changes and move forward without continued assistance from me.
As your Confidential Coach I will:
- Empower you to change without telling you what to do.
- Empower you to change internally by taking personal responsibility to act.
- Empower you to discover the gaps between where you are and where you want to be.
- Empower you to discover and fulfill your destiny by setting goals and taking action.
- Empower you by drawing out of you what God has put in you.
