Coaching Structure and Fees

Coaching engagements through the Support Center usually consist of at least 8 coaching sessions at a fee of $150-$200 per session. In your initial coaching session, you and your coach will spend time getting to know each other, clarifying the coaching agreements for the engagement and outlining the goals and objectives on which you want to focus. The first session is almost always a face-to-face, in-person session and can range from 1-1 ½ hours. Subsequent coaching sessions are typically held by phone and can range from 30 minutes to an hour.

We are committed to making sure your coaching needs and expectations are fully met. If during the first session you feel that you and your coach are not a good match for each other for any reason, you will be promptly matched with another coach. Coaching is a very personal journey on which you are about to embark. The Support Center is here to make or 212.924.6744 x313.
