How It Works
Intake with the client includes:
-
Family history – current and childhood history.
-
Career to date: success/failures, significant milestones.
-
Relationship history, if relevant.
-
Current stressors that may be impacting performance.
-
What the client wants to achieve, in order of importance.
The Plan
01
Together, my client and I make an outline for moving forward, looking at issues I can help them resolve more immediately, whether that’s something logistical or emotionally based. We then look at the issues that may take longer to resolve. We create a comprehensive and realistic action plan and work from there.
02
Follow-up: As a life therapist I’m available for in between sessions via phone or Facetime. But depending on how we set up the structure of service, I am also available for text and phone calls on a more informal basis if this is what my client needs. (For example, post-practice, match, meeting or event debriefs.)
03
Coordination with other clinicians, coaches, managers, bosses, doctors or significant people in my client’s life: with the written consent of the client, I can also communicate and coordinate with other supporting family members or clinicians when necessary. A coordinated approach is always the most successful way to support a client.
