Coaching questions for you!

In case you wonder, what type of questions I will ask in a coaching session with me, it all depends on what you seek help with. But, a common string of questions with a simple example, might sound like:

What is the problem you would like to solve?

I am tired.

Which kind of solution would you like to see?

I’d like to be rested to be able to do more and be a nicer person.

What do you need to solve this problem?

I need to sleep better.

What is stopping you from solving this problem?

I don’t have a good bed.

What is then the actual problem?

That I don’t have a good bed.

What can you do to take a step towards lessening the obstacle that is stopping you from solving the problem?

Save up money to buy another bed.

Is there any information you can look up? Any person to contact and ask? When will you do that?

I can look at IKEA and in vintage stores for different types, as well as read up on the different kind of mattresses to match my needs, next week.

How will you feel after reaching your goal? What more can you do to make you feel that?

I will feel more rested! I can also take naps.

Coaching dialogues, and sessions, are based on being present for our clients, so that we pose questions and pull out insights and solutions, directly deriving from what you are saying in the moment, as well as summarize it to allow you to become more clear. The only way to see if it works, is to try! Contact me for a complimentary session on Zoom, or in person, to find out for yourself. (I recommend at least three sessions (once every other week) to notice a difference, and usually three months to have reached a goal, or a milestone towards one. If I find that you might need another type of counselling, such as getting help from a therapist, attorney or accountant, I will also say that.) I look forward to hear from you!
