Coaching at Spence’s True North is a structured, collaborative process. We are fully committed to providing the most effective coaching practices we can, and we work hard to grow as life long learners. I actively maintain multiple professional credentials and board certifications, and I remain in good standing by completing the annual continuing education hours and classes required by the organizations that grant those credentials. My aim is to honor those standards and to practice at the highest level of professionalism and integrity I can.

At the same time, coaching is not a passive service. Outcomes depend significantly on each client’s dedication, honesty, and day to day engagement in the work. Coaching is a partnership. You are not simply being treated. You are choosing to participate.

To make coaching effective, clients are expected to
• Arrive prepared to work during each session
• Be honest and transparent about thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns
• Complete assigned reading, journaling, and reflection exercises
• Practice new skills and tools between sessions
• Communicate when something is unclear or feels overwhelming
• Commit to the goals we set together and take consistent action toward them

We will set clear goals, create homework, reading, and practical activities, and I will encourage and motivate you to give your best effort. In most cases you will get out of this process what you are willing to put into it. When a client is not engaging with the work, skipping assignments, or remaining passive, the results will usually be limited.

There are also situations in which coaching alone is not enough. If your needs, risk level, or clinical complexity go beyond the scope of coaching, we may pause or conclude coaching and recommend a higher level of care, such as medical, psychological, or psychiatric services. By accessing and using this website and these services, you acknowledge and agree to these expectations, the shared responsibility for outcomes, and the terms of this disclaimer.

In situations where client needs go beyond the scope of our coaching practice, or services, we are dedicated to referring clients to the appropriate healthcare professionals or higher levels of care to ensure they receive the support that they require.
