Q: I already tried psychologists and it did not really worked out... why this would be different this time ?

A : It can absolutely work, because we use another approach...

Maybe you have tried many times, and you feel live you keep failing. You have vivid dreams, but you don't know yet how to change them into something real.

While psychologists focus on clinical interventions and mental health treatment, and dig in the past and the origins of trauma, life coach specialized in neurodiversity, I emphasize empowerment, accountability, and action-oriented strategies to help clients reach their full potential and thrive in life, in the “here and now”

Now, whether it's your professional or personal life you seek to improve, I'm here to support you on this empowering journey.

 

Q: I am not sure I want to commit over 6 months... How long does it really take ?

A: Time constraints can be overwhelming....

But if it is one of your current challenge then you are at the right place to address this issue ! 

We can discuss your fears during a 30 min complementary meeting, and we will agree together on what you need. 

We can meet once a week, each 2 weeks or fix you next appointment at the end of the one you are having : this is totally your choice. So you can go your own path.

Keep in mind, you have the flexibility to choose your appointment days for added convenience.

Q: Will I benefit from coaching ?

A : Definetly, and on different levels. 

Research consistently demonstrates the profound impact of coaching on performance and well-being. 
By investing your time, money, and energy into a coaching program, you'll enhance your self-awareness, develop effective strategies, and optimize your productivity, communication skills, time management, and mindset.
 

Q : I don't think I am neurodivergent, but I have difficult interactions with neurodivergent people ... Can I still be coached ?

A: I can coach neurotypic as well... 

The very interesting perspective here is that you may be confronted to situations, attitudes and consequences that can affect your daily life at home or at work. 

Having the opportunity to be coached by a specialist of ADHD and ASD can bring a whole new light and perspective, and help you to find solutions to your issuesm from a new whole point of view.  

 

Q: Is ADHD Coaching for Adults With ADHD is efficient ?

This is perhaps the first outcome study on the efficacy of ADHD coaching for adults with ADHD and its long-term effect

ADHD coaching had a positive impact on the lives of people with ADHD. Therapy, relaxation techniques and medication can also support the ADHD-ers. 

 

 

Q: Is executive and leadership coaching efficient for women ?

A : The Impact of executive and leadership coaching is mesurable ...

This study concludes that coaching can be deployed to help female leaders combat feelings of a lack of legitimacy and thus even out power imbalances. Further research could assess how far these findings might be generalisable and therefore serve to inform the gender pay gap debate.

 

These suggest a male-dominated workplace culture, gender bias and the participants’ lack of confidence and entitlement (or ‘psychological glass ceiling’) resulted in the women feeling that they lacked legitimacy. The findings indicate that leadership coaching increases feelings of legitimacy for women in senior leadership roles, through enabling them to form their leadership identity, build confidence and be seen as leaders.

Q: Is online coaching really efficient ?

A: The potential of online coaching to develop female entrepreneurial self-efficacy is real

The findings from this Study  showed that coaching relationships had a positive impact on coachees’ entrepreneurial self-efficacy, compared to the control group in terms of enactive mastery, vicarious experience, social persuasion and psychological arousal. This suggests that coaching is a development intervention which can be used to enhance self-efficacy beliefs of female entrepreneurs, thereby increasing their chances of engaging in successful business creation and operation. 

Q: Will you agree to have me as your coachee even if I am not a woman ?

A : Yes, your gender, and even religion, ethnicity are not an obstacle to be coached. 

I address mainly to women because their empowerment is a cause I want to support.

Nevertheless I also believe in equity, and that all individual reaching the legal age to be coached is entitled to receive a quality coaching.

The only element that would not allow us to contract is if I am not the right person based on your needs, My schedule does not allow me to have new clients or if your request is not a coaching subject. 

In both cases, our discovery call will allow us to determine how we can work together. And in the eventuality I will do my best to reorient you towards the right person. 

Can I stop after 3 or 4 sessions ? Do I have to take 6 sessions ?

A: We work together for an agreed period of time based on your needs. Still we adapt to your goals and progress!


For some clients, just one session may be enough, especially if they've had coaching before and have a clear focus.

Others might need fewer than six sessions due to their quick grasp and adaptability, which is perfectly fine.

If progress is swift and you reach your goal ahead of schedule, that's great! You can wrap up whenever you're ready. Just book your final session and let me know if you're ready to conclude then.

Or if you want to explore new topics, I'm here for you!

My aim is to empower you to be self-sufficient throughout this journey.
