'Embracing Imperfection: the coach as client' 
BACP Coaching Today Article, July 2026

I wrote this article to capture learning from nearly ten years as a client of therapy. And how this learning has shaped my work as a coach over the past 5 years. All condensed in a 6 month writing process that involved coaching colleagues', clients' and therapist's feedback. Thanks go to them and the numerous others who made this effort possible.

Take a peek at the questions I used
to help my client reflect on his experience of our coaching work together. 

​

The questions fall under three categories: how challenge is experienced in the coaching space, how the client experiences the non-verbal elements of the coaching session; and, what we are doing to support him to healthily manage the changes he is making in his life.
