These are questions posed by prospective clients:
What is coaching?
Coaching is a co-creative experience between you and your Coach. It is an opportunity to be unconditionally supported by a professionally trained, objective partner whose job is to facilitate your clarity and support your greatest visions of your Self and your life.
What is the difference between Coaching and therapy?
Coaching focuses on the present and therapy focuses on issues from the past.
How is Internal Design Coaching different?
Often times, coaching objectives are very goal oriented and focus on active planning. Internal Design Coaching directs your focus inwards on a state of Being as opposed to a state of Doing.We will focus on:
- Paying attention with acceptance
- Exploring silent knowledge, Conscious direction and inner Truth
- Listening and turning inwards and then acting from this place of awareness
What are some of the benefits of Internal Design Coaching?
- Use of your mind instead of your mind using you
- Improved quality of inner loyalty and integrity
- Increased capacity to express externally the values and ideals which matter most to you
- Restored sense of self worth
- Creative purpose
- Authentic direction
- Clarity
- True Security
How much does Coaching cost?
One on one Coaching fees range anywhere from $175 for a single session to $175-$550 for monthly packages, depending on your specific goals and needs. Listed on the services page you will find additional offerings and prices. During your initial consultation we can discuss what is best for you.
What is expected of me as a client?
You are expected to maximize the return on your investment! This means that as a client you are expected to:
Prepare for our Coaching Sessions:
- Use the Internal Design Prep Form. Provide as much insight as possible so we can spend our time looking inward and forward, not reviewing what has already happened.
- Mind Prep: Spend a few minutes prior to our sessions to get yourself centered and focused.
- During our session have your mind awake, yet open and receptive to new information.
Dedicate Your Attention to our Session:
- Choose a comfortable time and place so that you can focus without interruptions.
- Disable call waiting. Don’t try to be in our session while you are watering plants, preparing dinner or feeding the pet, etc.
Continue your “practice” between calls:
- Continue to pay attention and be mindful of thoughts and words. Being aware is the greatest facilitator for change, whether you are in a session or out of a session.
- Follow through with whatever you have agreed to focus on. These are your commitments to yourself.
- Take note of the places you feel “lighter” and more at ease in your life. Reflect on all that you have “called” into your life because of your commitment to yourself and to Coaching. Have an attitude of gratitude for all that you have created, knowing it is all part of the Divine plan.
Communicate:
- If something does not feel right.
- When something feels great.
- If you need more or less.
What to expect from Coaching with Laura?
- An ongoing partnership focused in awareness, mutual commitment, enthusiasm and unconditional support.
- Focused conversations (usually by phone) facilitating your clarity, highlighting your truth and empowering right action.
- Compassion and acceptance for exactly where you are in your process.
- Intuitive feedback and guidance
How long will we work together?
This is of course entirely up to you. I always recommend starting with a three month commitment, because it takes this amount of time for noticeable changes to occur with this type of deep work. At the end of the first three months, we can assess where you are and what is appropriate at that time. Some clients prefer to have a Coach, an ally, consistently helping them to stay grounded and focused, not just during times of specific challenges.
