FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How is coaching different from therapy or tutoring?
Coaching is forward focused and practical. We build self-awareness and everyday strategies in real-life contexts. It’s not therapy, assessment, diagnosis, or crisis support.
Q2. How involved are parents?
Light‑touch. We align on goals and progress at a high level while protecting the teen’s psychological safety and privacy.
Q3. How often are sessions and how long do they run?
Weekly or fortnightly, 50 minutes. We set a rhythm that supports energy and steady progress.
Q4. Do you work with young adults not in school?
Yes. Coaching is tailored to each person’s context — study, work, job seeking, or life transitions.
Q5. What if my teen is unsure about coaching?
Autonomy matters. A clarity call helps them understand coaching and decide if it feels safe and useful.
Q6. Do you assign homework?
We co‑create small, optional experiments between sessions — no pressure, just learning what works.
Q7. When will we see change?
Many notice early shifts within the first three sessions. Sustainable change typically builds across 10–12 sessions.
Q8. How do payments work?
You can pay per session or in a package (shared during the clarity call). We’ll choose a simple method that suits you.
Q9. What about cancellations/rescheduling?
Clear, kind policies are shared during onboarding to protect everyone’s time and energy.
Q10. Is online coaching effective?
Yes — for many young people it works very well because it removes travel time, reduces social pressure, and can feel easier than meeting face-to-face. But it’s not the best fit for everyone. Some teens prefer being in the same room, and I respect that fully. We’ll talk about what feels most comfortable and supportive for your teen as we begin.
