Elena Perri Coaching Agreement
Introduction
Hello! Welcome to your coaching engagement. I’m here to support you in moving to the next level of your growth and development. Before we get started, let me share a bit about the experience you will have working with me as your coach.
These sessions are for you and will focus on what’s most important to you for our entire engagement. All sessions are confidential, and I will never mention that you are my client or publicly respond about any information you share during your coaching sessions. It is entirely up to you if you want to disclose that you are seeking coaching services from me or talk publicly about any discussions that happen during our coaching sessions. My sole focus is providing support to you and accompanying you on your journey of living a meaningful and purpose-filled life.
About Coaching
Coaching is a positive practice that helps you move from where you are now to where you want to go. Unlike other helping professions, my focus as a coach isn’t to diagnose a problem (therapy), fix what’s broken or wrong (consulting), or tell you what I did in a similar situation (mentoring). I’m a collaborative partner working with you to strategize and explore a way forward that may include new experiences, new learnings, and meaningful outcomes. There may be times that my expertise may be helpful to you, and in those cases, I will ask your permission before sharing or suggesting.
About Me
First and foremost, I’m a “people person.” I consider myself to be an “extra extrovert,” and I love meeting new people and engaging in conversations with them. Talking with strangers is actually one of my guilty pleasures. As one of the oldest children in my family, I possess a strong sense of responsibility and a high level of conscientiousness, so please know that I take my role as your coach seriously, and I will always do my best to serve you.
My professional background is in communications which makes coaching a natural fit for me. Asking questions and listening attentively are skills I’ve honed throughout my career. While I’m new to the coaching profession, I’m confident in my ability to help you gain clarity, make positive changes, and live more purposefully.
Coaching may be a challenging experience for you, and in order to see progress, it’s important that you are committed to taking the necessary actions to achieve personal growth. I will support you in taking ownership and committing to your own growth, but the outcomes are your responsibility.
How We Work Together
Our pre-scheduled sessions are 45 minutes, and they will be held via Zoom or by phone. You are the leader in your own development, so you will call me at our start time on my cell phone: 610-324-4101 or log onto Zoom with the link I sent to you.
If something comes up and you need to reschedule, that's no problem, but please let me know at least 24 hours in advance. If you are running late for a call, I will wait 10 minutes, and if you are later than that, then we will reschedule. If you know you are going to be late, just send me a text (610-324-4101), and I will see if we can start a little later in the hour. Consistent late calls will result in lost sessions. If it works for you to schedule our next meeting at the end of the call, we can do that, so you can maintain your other appointments.
Payment
The engagement investment is $200 each month for two sessions and $300 for three sessions each month, to be paid in full before our first session. Once the first month is paid in full, we will confirm the first meeting.
Scheduling
Please use my Calendly app to find times and days that work best for you:
If you are unable to find a suitable time, we will work this out together. Please don’t hesitate to ask me for assistance.
Record Keeping
Because I am continuously learning and seeking new coaching credentials, I am required to submit your name and email address to an encrypted database at the International Coaching Federation, only accessed by a very small number of officers of the ICF specifically tasked with the certification process.
Important Note
Please note that all decisions made by you during our time together are up to you. I will be a partner, but the final decision to take action on your learning is always yours to make, based on what you believe is best for you.
Emergency Contact
Our sessions are always confidential; however, I do require that you list an emergency contact person, in case I need to reach out to someone regarding your safety or health concerns. Though I have never had to use this information, it is a standard requirement for all my clients. Please do not enter your own name and number.
It is an honor to partner with you and to help you flourish in the ways that matter most to you. Please let me know if you have questions before you sign and submit this form.
