About Coaching
Life Coaching is a powerful method for making decisions and taking action. When done in a committed and consistent manner, this work leads to learning, advancement and vitality. The wonderful optimism of coaching is rooted in the understanding that we all inherently strive for a meaningful life, rich with learning. We are all naturally creative, resourceful and whole.
A coach provides a safe space in which to take a deep look at the habitual beliefs, feelings and energies that can obstruct or nourish action. Mindful awareness breaks self-defeating habits and enables moment-to-moment choice.
The more aware we are of the choices we are making and the underlying beliefs driving these choices, the more capable we are of consciously aligning our body, speech and mind. Coaching integrates the inner work of choosing what you are becoming and the outer work of supporting that newness on a daily basis with action. It is a creative adventure.
Within the coaching relationship, your coach:
Listens not only to your words but the values and beliefs beneath them
Will champion those deeper values and beliefs to bring out the best of your potential
Makes sure each session ends with clear “home work” or an inquiry
Will be available to celebrate your success with you!

Getting started
In order to empower a client, the co-active coaching relationship is custom fit to serve the client during the intake session. Once I know what makes you tick, what your particular obstacles are, and what you are ready to achieve, I tailor my coaching to suit your needs. As my client, be prepared to meet me half way, show up fully and honestly, and articulate what you need so that our relationship will be successful. I suggest a three month commitment in the beginning.
Generally, coaching happens by phone Monday and Tuesday evenings. After the initial 2 hour intake, sessions are 45 minutes, once a week, for the first three weeks of the month. I’m also available by email and phone between sessions. Before you begin coaching, you will be asked to complete a questionnaire and sign an agreement of terms.
Pricing
2 hour intake- $150
Monthly rate- $300, 3x month
“Tune-up”, one session – $50

“I am very grateful for the support and guidance that I experienced in working with Erin Koch. Her coaching sessions are compassionate and supportive- but gets down to the brass tacks of clarifying goals and identifying the tasks necessary for going to the next step. She does a masterful job of mixing a serious, sincere attitude with an atmosphere of lightness and playfulness.” AR, writer
