Online Counseling and Coaching

Online counseling and coaching is effective because you don't have to leave your home or office. You get the support you need, when you need it, and I use Skype, so if you want us to see each other, we can do that too -- others prefer talking to me on the phone.

Online counseling is very similar to counseling in my Montreal office, but you don't have to be in Montreal to talk to me. Technology makes it simple.

Coaching is not for everyone. Find out if it’s right for you.

Online Counseling & Coaching

Online counseling addresses many issues and gives you techniques to handle them. Coaching addresses a particular goal. ex. If your goal is to lose weight, and you've followed every diet in the book, a coach can get you where you want to be.

The first thing that you should know is that life coaching is not therapy. Coaching is similar to sports.

The coach helps you, motivates you, gives you direction, but you’re the one who has to take the ball and run with it. You’re the one who has to take the lead and know what you want to accomplish.

It’s up to you to share your problems and challenges with your coach. You set the goals, but you don’t have to worry. If you don’t know what you want out of a particular session, a good coach will be able to guide you to succeed

In recovery coaching, you get help to regain confidence and overcome the challenges in your new life without substances. You also work on relapse prevention.

Recovery Coaching, does not conflict with the 12 step program. If you’re in the program it’s not a problem. It compliments the program.

Coaching can take you beyond the 12 steps.

It’s also an ideal support for aftercare after rehab. You explore and test new options, all the while focusing on relapse prevention and creating a positive future.

It is very effective if you’ve had a slip and want to get back on track.

Why Coaching Works

An experienced coach should be a specialist in their field and should be able to identify patterns that you may not see. The coach is your partner, guiding you to implement solutions.

A good coach not only gets you to see improvement, but you become the empowered person that you want to be.

This is one of the fastest way to tackle challenging problems as well as develop personal growth

When Is Good Time To Get Coaching?

When you know what you want: lose weight, stop gambling etc. …

If you’ve been trying and trying and keep falling back or you’re overwhelmed with challenges and stuck in a rut, that’s a perfect time for coaching.

How Do I Get Good Coaching?

Anyone can call themselves a coach. There are even simple courses and certificates to get on the internet, so ask many questions. Your coach should have credentials as well as being knowledgeable, experienced, and have legitimate credentials.

But credentials don’t say everything. I don’t believe that anyone should hire coach who doesn’t give you a free session. You should have rapport with the coach. You should like and respect the person you’ve chosen and you can only do that if you speak to them, before you making a commitment.

"Every time I put the phone down after speaking to you, I am grateful for the decision I made, selecting you as my coach.” Melanie G

The Cost

A good coach isn’t cheap, but coaching is not a long-term process. An experienced coach will get you there faster and you’ll improve quickly and learn new techniques and ideas in each session.

If you're worried about cost, take a moment to look at coaching in a different way.

Keep in mind that although you book coaching by the hour, (or half hour) you’re paying for the session. The benefit of the coaching you’ll receive should last for the rest of your life. My Price Page

You can put a price on the call, but how can you put a price on changing your life?

Will Coaching Work For You?

That depends. Unless you have deep emotional problems, hiring an experienced coach for Life Coaching or Addiction Recovery works for most people but there are exceptions.

You need to be motivated. You need to have the drive and initiative to work with a coach. You have to want to change and be open to making those changes.

Some people choose to have sessions one time per week, others choose 2 times a week or one or two times a month.

We’ll see what works best when we talk in the free 30 minute session. We’ll also discuss the payment arrangements if you prefer not to pay on the internet.

Once again, I repeat. I don't want you to throw your money out for nothing.

"I am so confident that you’ll benefit from your session, that if you don’t, just tell me, and the session will be refunded – no hassle. You have nothing to lose. That’s my personal guarantee."

Don’t hire a coach unless you seriously want to change.

If you do, make an appointment for a free 30 minute session and decide for yourself if coaching is for you. Make the commitment to finally change your life!

For life coaching, recovery coaching or online counseling here’s what to do

I've been working with PayPal, because its very safe and you can use any card you like. But if you prefer to a different mode of payment, just let me know

My personal guarantee: "I am so confident that you’ll benefit from your session, that if you don’t, just tell me, and your session will be refunded – no hassle. You have nothing to lose."
