​

1. Nature of Coaching Services

The services provided by [Your Business Name], including coaching, therapeutic-informed coaching, guidance, educational content, and personal development support, are intended to support self-awareness, personal growth, and wellbeing.

Coaching is a non-clinical, non-medical service and is not a substitute for professional mental health care, psychotherapy, counselling, psychiatric treatment, or medical advice.

2. No Medical or Psychological Diagnosis

We do not:

  • Diagnose mental health conditions

  • Treat mental illness

  • Prescribe medication

  • Provide emergency or crisis intervention

Nothing on this website or within coaching sessions should be interpreted as medical, psychological, or psychiatric advice.

3. Client Responsibility

By engaging in coaching services, you acknowledge that:

  • You are responsible for your own decisions, actions, and outcomes

  • Coaching does not guarantee specific results

  • Any changes you make in your life are made by your own choice

  • Coaching is a collaborative process, not a directive one

You agree to take full responsibility for your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing during and after coaching sessions.

4. Scope of Support

Coaching may include:

  • Reflective conversations

  • Goal clarification

  • Emotional awareness and insight

  • Personal development tools and strategies

While coaching can feel therapeutic in nature, it does not replace therapy or clinical treatment.

5. When Additional Support Is Needed

If at any time you are experiencing:

  • Severe psychological distress

  • Suicidal thoughts

  • Self-harm behaviours

  • Symptoms of serious mental illness

You are strongly encouraged to seek immediate support from:

  • A qualified mental health professional

  • Your GP

  • Emergency services

  • Crisis helplines (e.g. NHS 111, Samaritans)

We reserve the right to pause or discontinue coaching services if we believe additional professional support is required.

6. Confidentiality and Safeguarding

All information shared during coaching sessions is treated as confidential, in line with our Privacy Policy, except where disclosure is required by law or where there is a risk of serious harm to yourself or others.

7. Educational Content Disclaimer

Any content provided on this website, social media platforms, emails, or downloadable materials is for educational and informational purposes only.

Engaging with this content does not create a coaching or therapeutic relationship unless explicitly agreed in writing.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, [Your Business Name] is not liable for:

  • Decisions made by clients based on coaching sessions

  • Direct or indirect consequences of applying coaching insights

  • Emotional responses or life changes arising from coaching work

By engaging in coaching, you accept these terms willingly and consciously.
