Grief Unchained, LLC
Sandi Derby, Life Coach & Advanced Certified Grief Recovery Specialist
I have positive expectations for a coaching relationship that helps you to create the life YOU want to live. To partner together professionally, I want you to be familiar with the following guidelines.
Terms of Coaching:
I invite you to think of coaching as a process. Many people create change for themselves in a short time. However, to refine and sustain the change takes several months. Although not binding, I would ask that you expect our Coaching relationship to last at least 3 months.
Fees:
The fee is $250 per session (8 sessions for $2,000 or 12 sessions for $3,000), and is payable to Grief Unchained. You cay pay by cash, check or credit card. There is no commitment beyond week to week; however, it is recommended that you give the process adequate time (usually at least three months).
Procedure:
Our meetings will be either in-person or via Zoom (online meeting). If you wish to connect with me in between sessions with a challenge, a success or an inquiry, I will make every attempt to respond to your text, call or e-mail within 24 hours, with an email or short phone call at your discretion. I'm happy to provide this extra level of service at no additional charge.
Changes:
If you need to reschedule our appointment, please give me 24 hours notice or there will be a charge for the session. If you have an emergency or illness, you can reschedule with less than 24 hours notice. If I need to reschedule, I will give you at least 24 hours notice as well, barring an emergency or illness.
Between Calls:
Email me at time at [email protected] or text me at 323.698.5570 to reach me with ideas, problems, questions etc, or to have a quick laser call.
Problems:
If I ever say or do anything that upsets you or doesn't feel right, please bring it to my attention so that we can resolve it as soon as possible. My objective is to have a coaching relationship that is fully open, honest, real and trusting in our communication styles. We should both realize that communication via telephone or email entails extra challenges since we can not see body language, facial expressions, etc. Therefore we give each other plenty of latitude, and promptly ask for clarification if there is a mis-connection.
