What do previous participants have to say about our personalised one-to-one sessions?

“Thank you for the opportunity to brainstorm with you some of my difficult clients and some potential communication tips moving forward.”

“It reinforced for me the importance of being flexible and trying different tactics if the current approach isn’t working. It’s okay to just plant the seed at that time and to revist what the client is struggling with at a later time…”

“Liked the tailored approach; very useful and practical.”

“Thank you for reminding me that I am already doing this in practice, and that all is needed is some occasional tweaking when I get stuck…”😊

“I’m an online/in-person health and fitness coach who wants the best for their clients. I realized communication was where most coaches were falling down; their approach wasn’t client-centered. I attended one of Stav’s motivational interviewing courses and found it very helpful. She was really professional, kind, and encouraging. After the course, I reached out to Stav to help me further improve my skills. She role-played ambivalent clients and challenged me in the right ways, which has helped me massively. The best health professionals are normally great communicators, and I’m confident Stav can help you get the best out of your clients and excel in your job. I can’t recommend her enough.” Diarmuid O’Donoghue from O’Donoghue Fitness Workouts
