Client Agreement

As a client, I understand that Co-Active® Coaching is a comprehensive process that may involve all areas of my life, including work, finances, health, relationships, education and recreation. I acknowledge that deciding how to handle these issues and implement my choices is exclusively my responsibility. I understand that Co-Active® Coaching does not treat mental disorders as defined by the American Psychiatric Association. I understand that Co-Active® Coaching is not a substitute for counseling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health care or substance abuse treatment and I will not use it in place of any form of therapy. I promise that if I am currently in therapy or otherwise under the care of a mental health professional, that I have consulted with this person regarding the advisability of working with a Co-Active® Coach and that this person is aware of my decision to proceed with the Co-Active® Coaching relationship. I understand that feelings are a normal and healthy part of being human and that through a CoActive® Coaching relationship, awareness and curiosity will be brought to my feelings so that I can make more informed choices and move into my desired action. I understand that coaching does not deal with the psychological antecedent to emotions — that is the realm of therapy.

As a client, I am committed to creating a coaching alliance with Jennifer Coffey that will support me as I clarify and realize my goals and move steadily toward living the life I want to live. Jennifer agrees to hold all content of our sessions completely confidential.

Either myself or my coach, Jennifer Coffey, may terminate this Agreement at any time with 48 hours written notice. I agree to compensate Jennifer Coffey for all coaching services rendered through and including the effective date of termination of the coaching relationship.

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Jennifer Coffey makes no guarantees, representations or warranties of any kind or nature, express or implied with respect to the coaching services negotiated, agreed upon and rendered. In no event shall Jennifer Coffey be liable to me, the client, for any indirect, consequential or special damages. Notwithstanding any damages that I, the client, may incur, Jennifer Coffey’s entire liability under this Agreement, and my exclusive remedy, shall be limited to the amount actually paid by me, the client to Jennifer Coffey under this Agreement for all coaching services rendered through and including the termination date.
