Consultation/Coaching Agreement

This Agreement is entered into by and between The Divorce Coach For Men, LLC. Hayley Lisa (Coach) and (Client) whereby Coach agrees to provide a 1-hour consultation for Client.

Description of Coaching: Coaching is a partnership (defined as an alliance, not a legal business partnership) between the Coach and the Client in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the client to maximize personal and professional potential.

The service to be provided is coaching, which is not advice, therapy, or counseling. Coaching is a designed alliance that helps bring out the best in the client and helps the client create and live the life they want to live.

Client acknowledges that the one-hour consultation offered is a non-refundable regardless of attendance.

Client acknowledges that coaching is a comprehensive process that may involve different areas of his or her life, including work, finances, health, relationships, education, and recreation. The Client agrees that deciding how to handle these issues, incorporate coaching principles into those areas and implementing choices is exclusively the Client’s responsibility.

Client acknowledges that coaching does not involve the diagnosis or treatment of mental disorders as defined by the American Psychiatric Association and that coaching is not to be used as a substitute for counseling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health care, substance abuse treatment, or other professional advice by legal, medical, or other qualified professionals and that it is the Client’s exclusive responsibility to seek such independent professional guidance as needed.

If Client is currently under the care of a mental health professional, it is recommended that the Client promptly inform the mental health care provider of the nature and extent of the coaching relationship agreed upon by the Client and the Coach.

The Client understands that to enhance the consultation, the Client agrees to communicate honestly, be open to feedback and assistance and create the time and energy to participate fully in the program.
