Coaching Service Disclaimer

Please read this disclaimer carefully. It explains the nature of the coaching services provided by Elissa Dobson Coaching and the important distinction between coaching and other professional services such as therapy, counselling or medical care.

1. Coaching Is Not Therapy or Medical Care

The coaching services provided by Elissa Dobson Coaching are not a form of therapy, psychotherapy, counselling, psychiatry or medical treatment. Coaching is a forward-focused, action-oriented process that supports personal development, self-leadership and wellbeing.

Elissa Dobson Coaching does not diagnose, treat or prescribe for any medical, psychological or psychiatric condition. If you are experiencing symptoms that may require medical attention, including those related to perimenopause or menopause, you are strongly encouraged to consult your GP or relevant healthcare professional.

2. Coaching Works Alongside Professional Support

Coaching can be a valuable complement to medical or therapeutic support. If you are currently working with a GP, specialist, therapist or any other healthcare professional, we encourage you to continue doing so. Please inform Elissa Dobson Coaching if this is the case so that sessions can be appropriately tailored.

3. Mental Health and Crisis Support

If at any point you are experiencing a mental health crisis, thoughts of self-harm, or feel at risk of harming yourself or others, please contact your GP, call 999 (in the UK) in an emergency, or reach out to the Samaritans on 116 123 (free, 24 hours a day) (in the UK).

Elissa Dobson Coaching will always signpost appropriately where a need arises that falls outside the scope of coaching. Our coaching sessions are not a substitute for crisis support.

4. Results Are Not Guaranteed

The results of coaching vary between individuals and depend on a range of factors including personal engagement, circumstances and the nature of the goals being pursued. Elissa Dobson Coaching does not guarantee specific outcomes from coaching programmes or sessions.

Client testimonials shared on this website reflect individual experiences and are not a guarantee of similar results.

5. Your Responsibilities

By engaging with coaching services from Elissa Dobson Coaching, you acknowledge that you are responsible for your own decisions, actions and wellbeing. You agree to seek appropriate professional support for any medical, mental health or other concerns that fall outside the scope of coaching.

6. Contact

If you have any questions about the scope of our coaching services before booking, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
