Life Coaching for Clarity, Confidence & Growth – UK-Based, Military-Informed Support

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the difference between a life coach and a therapist?
A: Therapists often focus on healing past experiences, emotional issues, or mental health challenges. Life coaches focus on the present and future—helping you set goals, build confidence, and take steps forward in your personal or professional life.
Q: Do you offer a life coaching discount for veterans, military, or public servants?
A: Yes. We offer a 20% discount as a thank you for your service. Just email us at [contact@acsis.co.uk](mailto:contact@acsis.co.uk) with your name and the sector you serve or served in, and we’ll send you a personalised code.
Q: What is life coaching, and how can it help me?
A: Life coaching helps you get clear on what matters, identify what’s in the way, and take meaningful action. It’s a collaborative process that supports personal and professional growth. You’ll gain direction, motivation, and tools to move forward with purpose.
Q: How does the coaching process work?
A: We start with a free consultation to learn more about your goals. From there, we agree on a plan that fits your pace and needs. Sessions are usually held online, and we’re developing AI tools to offer even more tailored support as we grow.
Q: What kinds of coaching services do you offer?
A: We offer coaching for individuals and teams across areas like personal development, career planning, wellbeing, leadership, and relationships. We also facilitate team building, leadership development, and group coaching. Reach out to explore how we can support you or your organisation.
Q: How long does coaching take?
A: Coaching is flexible. Some people benefit from a short burst of sessions, while others prefer ongoing support. We suggest starting with 10 sessions so we can set meaningful goals and review progress together. You’re always in control of the pace.
Q: How much does coaching cost?
A: Pricing depends on the type of coaching and number of sessions. We aim to be accessible, with flexible options and discounts for veterans, serving personnel, and Blue Light card holders. Let’s talk and find what works for you.
Q: Is coaching confidential?
A: Yes. Confidentiality is central to our work. We follow professional standards to ensure your privacy, trust, and safety throughout the coaching relationship.
Q: What if I’m not sure coaching is for me?
A: No pressure. We offer a no-strings consultation so you can explore what coaching involves and see if it’s the right fit for you.
Q: How do I get started?
A: Just get in touch. You can book a free consultation to talk through your goals, ask questions, and decide if coaching with ACSIS feels like the right next step.

A: Sam & Lloyd now have some availability, please keep an eye on the site, or subscribe as we'll keep you updated as to when sessions become available. Why not try one of our monthly silent coaching sessions? Please do reach out at contact@acsis.co.uk if you'd like more information.
Q: What happens during a life coaching session?
A: Each session is tailored to your individual needs. We'll discuss your goals, explore obstacles, and develop strategies to move forward. Sessions are collaborative and designed to provide clarity and actionable steps.
Q: How is coaching different from consulting or mentoring?
A: While consultants and mentors often provide specific advice and solutions based on their expertise, coaching focuses on facilitating your personal growth by helping you discover your own solutions and strategies through guided questioning and reflection.
Q: Can coaching help with career transitions?
A: Absolutely. Coaching can assist you in clarifying your career goals, identifying transferable skills, exploring new opportunities, and developing a plan to navigate the transition smoothly.
Q: How do I choose between one-on-one, silent, or group coaching?
A: Choosing the right coaching format depends on your personal preferences and goals:
-
One-on-One Coaching: Ideal if you prefer personalised attention and a tailored approach to your specific challenges and objectives.
-
Silent Coaching: Suited for those who value self-reflection and introspection, providing space to explore thoughts and feelings independently with guided prompts.
-
Group Coaching: Great for individuals who enjoy collaborative learning and gaining diverse perspectives, offering support and shared experiences from peers.
