Terms and Conditions

Client Terms & Conditions

Please read these terms and conditions which apply to the provision of my professional services. By making an appointment, you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions. If you are unable or unwilling to agree to these terms and conditions, then you should not book an appointment or continue with your course of coaching.

Initial Consultation

You may be offered a 15-minute online initial consultation. The purpose of this initial consultation is for me to understand the needs of the client and no coaching will be given. An estimate of the number of sessions required to deal with your presenting issue will be given based on the information presented at that time. Estimates are only rough guidelines and are subject to change.

Booking & Payments

Payment must be made in full 48 hours before the scheduled session start time. Where payment is not received 48 hours before your session, the session will be cancelled and may be offered to someone else. It is your responsibility to pay the session fees before each scheduled session and payment will confirm the appointment booking.

Cancellation & Rescheduling

In the case of a session having to be cancelled or re-scheduled, please provide as much notice as possible. Notification must be made by text message or phone call at least 48 hours prior to an in-person hour or online session.

Refunds

No refunds will be issued for cancellations within 48 hours of scheduled sessions. Session fees are for my time and professional expertise, therefore no refunds will be given for any sessions where you have attended and paid for the session. Where a discount package has been booked and paid for in advance, if you choose to discontinue your coaching process before attending all the sessions, a pro-rata refund will be issued after deduction of the full standard session fee for any sessions you have attended.
