This Coaching Agreement between $FIRSTNAME$ $LASTNAME$ and Mark Schall Coaching will begin on the date indicated above and will continue for one (1) year. The monthly fee is indicated above and is payable in advance. Session cancellations must be at least 24 hours in advance in order to avoid forfeiting the session.
The service to be provided is coaching, which is not advice, therapy, nor counseling and may address specific personal projects, business successes or general conditions in the client’s life or profession. 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. If at any time the client is dissatisfied with this coaching agreement, he or she can request to be matched with a new coach. Upon completion of the three months, coaching will convert to a month-to-month basis. In the event it is desired to cancel further services, the client and coach agree to provide one another with thirty days notice.
The coach promises the client that all information provided to the coach will be kept strictly confidential as allowed by law. From time to time, in order for Mark Schall to renew his coach accreditation credentials with the International Coach Federation (ICF), he may need to submit a confidential log of coaching hours. This log will include the name and contact info of clients seen so that if the ICF needs to, they can verify that said person was in fact a coaching client who received coaching services from Mark Schall. Please be assured that this contact information is shared only with the ICF Credentialing Department and they would only use for such credentialing verification purposes, and only if they decide to "spot check" the submitted log, which is quite rare. They will only make such contact one time, in relation to the credential application in question and they will not utilize that contact info for any other purpose.
Throughout the working relationship the coach will engage in direct and personal conversations. The client can count on the coach to be honest and straightforward in asking questions and making requests. The client understands that the power of the coaching relationship can only be granted by the client and the client agrees to do just that—have the coaching relationship be powerful. If the client believes that coaching is not working as desired, the client will immediately communicate that to the coach and both will take action to remedy the situation.
I hereby certify that I do not suffer from any physical or mental disability that might affect my participation in the coaching process, and, if I have any substance abuse problem or mental illness, I have consulted with my physician and/or other health care professional and been advised that I may participate in the coaching process without risk. I agree that if there is any change in this representation, I will promptly advise the coach.
I agree that, in the event if any claim or grievance by me against Mark Schall, my sole remedy will be the return of the fees paid. Mark Schall is not responsible for any direct, indirect, incidental or consequential damages beyond the total amount of fees paid by the client.
I understand that this document contains all of the information given to me by Mark Schall and all other representations or statements (prior or subsequent, whether oral or written) are superseded by this document.
By clicking on the "AGREE" button below, I indicate my full understanding of and agreement with the information outlined above.
Note: This agreement does not constitute a determination of or diagnosis of an illness or plan of treatment. The above-named coach is a professional coach not a medical professional. If you should need mental or physical treatment, you agree, with the help of your medical/health care professional, to seek out whatever medical treatment is necessary or required.
