Services Agreement & Consent

The following Agreement will lay the foundation for our work together, and includes the terms and conditions that will apply to my services. Please read the following information carefully and confirm that you accept. If you have any questions whatsoever, please let me know.

SERVICES

I will provide you with the coaching services that we have agreed on, which are confirmed in the invoice or online payment platform.

The International Coaching Federation (“ICF”) defines coaching as “partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential”.

My services consist of private sessions during which I will ask you strategic questions to help you gain clarity about a particular problem or objective, encourage self-discovery, hold you accountable, and elicit client-generated solutions.

You acknowledge that:

- My services do not constitute legal, financial or medical advice, and are not a replacement for these or other professional services;

- Coaching is not equivalent to counseling;

– I am not a health professional and do not diagnose or provide advice or treatment for social, personal, psychological or mental health issues;

- My services are not covered by extended health insurance plans;

- Coaching is not prescriptive. You alone are responsible for evaluating your choices and deciding on the appropriate action; and

- There are many variables that contribute to success and happiness in your career. I cannot guarantee that my services will lead to your success or desired outcome.

FEES

If you proceed with hiring me for the outlined services, you agree to pay the fees set out in this proposal. An invoice will be sent to you to be paid, and payment terms will be outlined.

SCHEDULING CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS

If you need to reschedule your coaching session, you must provide me with at least 24-hours advance notice. If you do not provide me with 24-hours notice of cancellation, you may be charged for the coaching session at my sole discretion. If I need to reschedule a coaching session, I will provide you with at least 24-hours advance notice. If you or I cancel a coaching session in accordance with this section, I will make reasonable efforts to reschedule your session within the current month. If you are on vacation, we will spend more time before you leave or after you return to ensure that we meet our commitment.

TERMINATION

Either of us may terminate this agreement, including the services, on 24-hours written notice. If this agreement is terminated, you must pay me for any services I provide up until the effective date of termination. If necessary, I will provide you with a separate invoice for the final amount due within 10 days of the effective date of termination.

ETHICS AND CONFIDENTIALITY

I am bound by the ethical code of conduct and standards of behaviour established by the ICF, which includes strict rules of confidentiality. As such, our coaching relationship and the content of every conversation is confidential unless you consent to the release of specific information or I am required to disclose information about our relationship pursuant to a valid court order or subpoena. If I believe that you are involved in illegal activities or there is a likely or imminent risk to yourself or others, I may be required to inform appropriate authorities. However, please be aware that the Coach-Client relationship is not subject to any legally recognized privilege, which means that I could be compelled to disclose the content of our sessions to a court. I am required to provide ICF with the names and contact information for my clients for the purposes of continuing education and credentialing. By agreeing to these terms, you consent to the disclosure of your name and contact information to ICF for this purpose. The content of our sessions will remain strictly confidential.

LIMITED LIABILITY

You acknowledge and agree that no guarantees or warranties of any kind or nature, whether express or implied, will apply to my services, and you accept sole responsibility for creating and implementing the decisions, choices, actions and results that arise from or relate to my services. In no event will I be liable for any damage or loss that arises from or is related to my services.

ACCEPTANCE

By paying the amount on the invoice or online payment software, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions above in respect of my services.
