Touching Distance Coaching

It’s important to understand the difference between therapy, coaching, and mentoring, so you can decide what kind of support best suits your needs.

✔ Therapy focuses on healing past wounds, mental health, and emotional well-being. Therapists work with issues like trauma, anxiety, and depression, helping clients understand their past and develop coping strategies. Coaching is not a substitute for therapy and does not provide mental health treatment.

✔ Mentoring is based on experience-sharing and advice-giving. A mentor is usually someone who has walked a similar path and can offer guidance, suggestions, and lessons learned from their own journey.

✔ Coaching, however, is not about giving advice or telling you what to do. It’s about helping you explore your own answers through reflection, deep questioning, and self-awareness. As your coach, I won’t tell you the “right” way forward—instead, I will support you in uncovering what is right for you.

This coaching space was created with humanitarians in mind—for people whose work is more than just a job, but a commitment, a calling, and a way of life.

Having worked across different cultures and crises, I understand the unique challenges of aid work, including the emotional toll of sudden endings, uncertainty, and transition.

✔ This is a space for you to reflect, process change, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
✔ I won’t give you answers, but I’ll help you ask the right questions to find your own.
✔ You’ll receive both support and challenge—holding space for where you are while helping you take steps forward.

Coaching is future-focused and action-oriented—it’s about moving through transition in a way that aligns with who you are and what matters most to you.

If you’re feeling stuck, uncertain, or in transition, coaching can help. It’s a dedicated space to think, process, and gain clarity—something many humanitarians don’t often get in their fast-paced work.

You don’t need to have everything figured out to start. Coaching is for you if you’re:
✔ Navigating career uncertainty, especially after aid budget cuts.
✔ Reevaluating your next steps after leaving a humanitarian role.
✔ Looking for structured support to help you move forward with confidence.
✔ Feeling lost or disconnected from your purpose and wanting to reset.

Still unsure? Schedule your no pressure free 30 minute Discovery Call and see how it feels.

✔ 1:1 Coaching – Best if you want personalised attention and a private space to explore your unique challenges. Sessions are fully tailored to you, helping you gain clarity and move forward at your own pace.

✔ Group Coaching – Ideal if you find value in shared experiences and want community support. You’ll learn alongside others in a structured, interactive space, gaining fresh perspectives while moving forward together.

If you’re unsure which to choose, take your first step with a Discovery Call.

I know these are difficult times, and my priority is to make coaching accessible while keeping it sustainable. That’s why I offer a sliding scale payment model—so you can contribute what feels manageable for you.

Here’s what sessions typically cost in EUROS:
✔ 1:1 coaching – €135 per session
✔ Group coaching program – €190 per person for a 3-session program (normally ~€60 per session).

You can pay the full amount or a reduced rate, with a minimum contribution of €35 for 3 sessions to help cover basic costs. 

No matter what you pay, you will receive the same level of care, commitment, and support.

This model is built on trust, fairness, and the belief that no one should have to navigate change alone.
