What Is Coaching?
Coaching is a newer profession synthesized from the best of psychology, business, philosophy, spirituality and finance to benefit individuals who want to grow. Utilizing a coach is about change. Coaches focus on the present and what to do next. People in recovery utilize specially trained coaches to help identify and achieve goals while they are developing a lifestyle free from mood altering behaviors.
Why Does Coaching Work?
Synergy - Client and coach become a team,
focused on the client's goals and needs.
Structure - Client's take more action, think
bigger and get the job done because the plan is well-thought out
and the coach provides accountability.
Expertise - Coaches know how to assist clients in
making better decisions and setting goals that are attainable and
aligned with their values.
Who Works with a Coach?
Anyone seeking self-knowledge/improvement, change and/or fulfillment.
What to Look for in a Coach
The right coach consistently brings out the best in you. Just as one would hire a basketball coach to improve their basketball game, one should seek a coach that has demonstrable success in the area in which the individual would like to grow. The right coach will:
- Have a track record of helping individuals like you accomplish the goals you want
- Help you think positively and be motivated to act
- Keep up with and go ahead of you when it's time to grow
How Does Coaching Work?
Coaching at ECRS is delivered by agreement through weekly sessions in person, by video conferencing, or by phone. Clients bring an agenda to the session. The coach helps to solve problems and make the most of opportunities. When dealing with large goals, the coach helps design the project and provides the support and structure needed to make sure it gets done. Coaches bring out the client's best by offering advice, expecting a lot, helping strategize and celebrating wins.
How Do I Get Started?
If you think this type of relationship could work for you, call 610-621-5223 and talk with an ECRS coach. The next step would be to schedule a meeting where you get to know one another. You will receive a Welcome Packet by mail with a checklist and assessment materials. To make the most of your first meeting, you will want to complete the packet and bring it with you. During the initial meeting, the coach will want to hear about your needs, problems and goals. You will want to know what the coach has to offer. At the end of this meeting, both you and the coach decide if it's a match.
