Clients’ testimonials

Just some of the feedback that I have received from other professional coaches after (or during) providing coach supervision.

“I hire Claire to support me to take my coaching to a higher level of mastery, to challenge me and get me to think more about how I interact with clients. Supervision also makes me think about how I might get in the way of the client’s success. Claire challenges me with firm gentleness and tenacity that makes me really think more deeply. My coaching is becoming cleaner and more effective because of that. I would highly commend Claire services as a coach and supervisor.” — HO, November 2008

“Claire has lovely energy – very enthusiastic and positive. She is naturally empathetic and warm. One of her strengths is the ability to focus right in which I liked very much. She has very confident presence. I also really appreciated Claire’s willingness to share her own experience and resources – and the fact she did that in an appropriate way.” — MC, MCC (ICF coach), 2008

“You have an effective way of asking the ‘so what’ question… when I am rambling on, you insert a question that gets to why the issue or topic matters to me and my client… or what I would like to be different. It really moves my thinking on, and is a helpful “interruption”…I think you work very well with people identities – those of the clients I am working with, which come up in supervision and my own as a coach – and how these are in constant interaction with their system (the company, the process). It does not surprise me that you are working with people at a different and deeper level. That seems to be a strong point for you.” — CB, executive coach, 2008

“I find you full of energy and very uplifting, you create a wonderful safe space to explore whatever is on my mind. You are pragmatic and focused in your approach and come across really well on the phone, that’s not to say that you don’t face to face, but you are even better on the phone. You are warm and caring and always offer a different perspective. You are action and results-orientated, professional with a varied approach with lots of experience and skills to draw on.” — ED, UK executive coach, 2007

“Thanks so much Claire, for yesterday. I think you’re a fantastic supervisor, I really like the way you challenge to deepen my thinking and get me to question my assumptions.” — KB, executive coach & supervisor, 2007

“Your style is lightness, simplicity and clarity.” — PB, Executive Coach & Trainer (Switzerland) 2006

“Claire has helped me greatly to build my confidence gradually through non-directive and really supportive supervision/coaching. You show fun, understanding, humility, integrity, encouragement and energy.” — CB, personal coach (Sweden), 2006

“I personally appreciated direct communication style that you demonstrated in your feedback to me. It was no-nonsense, right to the point, objective and yet quite emotional. This was exactly what I needed. However, I observed you giving feedback to other people in the group and each time it was very different. So, in my opinion your coaching style is versatile indeed. For me it was also a good learning opportunity.” — executive coach (Russia) 2006

“Your empathy and careful listening and being a sparring partner are important to me really valuable: reminding me to put things in context and perspective, not to get too involved and to believe in the resourceful of the client; at the same time your appreciation of my skills.” — CB, UK executive coach, 2006

“I value your unquestioning high regard and reliability. You are straightforward and supportive and show genuine personal interest. Thanks.” — HW, executive coach/trainer (Belgium) 2006
