Coaching Agreement
This agreement is between - coach
and client
COACHING PRACTICE & RELATIONSHIP:Coaching is a relationship between the Coach and the Client to facilitate the process of personal, professional and/or spiritual growth and development. The Client and Coach agree that the coaching relationship will be designed together. Coaching is for individuals who are emotionally and psychologically well and who want to make changes and move forward in their lives. Coaching is not mentoring, advice, therapy or counseling. By entering into this relationship, the Coach and Client acknowledge that the client wants to make significant progress and/or change in his/her life and that progress and change happen at rates that are unique to each individual.
COACHING SESSION PROCEDURES: Coaching sessions are conducted in-person, by telephone, telepresence (ex: Skype) or email. For clients local to Seattle, WA, it is the Client’s responsibility to initiate the coaching session by either arriving in-person at the scheduled time. For non-local clients, the Coach will contact the client at the scheduled time. If the Client is more than 15 minutes late for the coaching session, the Coach will assume the session is cancelled and the Client will forfeit the session fee. Cancelling and/or rescheduling a coaching session is easily done with appropriate notice. Please allow at least 24-hour notice to appointment changes. The Coach has the right to terminate the coaching relationship at her discretion at any time and for any reason. If this occurs, the Coach will refund the Client any pre-payment of coaching sessions that did not occur.
CONFIDENTIALITY: The coaching relationship is built on trust. The Coach agrees to keep all information about and conversations with the Client private and confidential. No personal ideas, information, thoughts or experiences expressed by the Client will be shared with anyone without the permission of the Client. Confidentiality is the Client’s right, regardless of who is paying the coaching fees.
Payment Details: All fees are expressed in USD and are to be paid in advance of each coaching session, per the agreed upon rates and dates. Payments may be made by check, credit card or PayPal. All packages must be completed within six months unless other arrangements are made. If Client has chosen the payment plan option, the payment terms do not change if Client decides to postpone sessions. If the unlikely event that the Coach postpones sessions, the payment terms will adjust accordingly to accommodate Client.
