Session Agreement

Thank you for expressing an interest in working with me. I am excited about the opportunity to support your personal growth and well-being. This document serves as a formal agreement outlining the terms and conditions of our Initial Session.

Objective: 

The purpose of this Session is for us to connect, discuss your goals, assess your needs, and explore how we can work together to achieve positive outcomes. During this session, we will also evaluate your readiness for coaching and establish whether we are a good fit for an ongoing coaching relationship.

Location: 

Virtual via Zoom

Fees and Payment: 

This Session is provided free of charge as a courtesy to potential clients.

Confidentiality: 

I maintain strict confidentiality concerning all information shared during our sessions, by professional coaching ethics. Any personal information shared by you will be kept confidential, except in situations where disclosure is required by law or if you provide explicit written consent for me to share certain information.

Client Responsibility: 

As the client, you are responsible for attending the Session at the agreed-upon date, time, and location. If you need to reschedule or cancel the session, please provide at least 12- hour notice. 

Cancellation and Rescheduling Policy:

We understand that unexpected commitments can arise. If you need to reschedule or cancel your Session, we kindly request you provide at least 12 hours notice. This allows us to accommodate your needs and offer your session to someone else if necessary. Repeated scheduling and rescheduling might result in forfeiture of this Session Option. 

We value your commitment to personal growth and want to ensure your coaching experience is as flexible and supportive as possible.

Scope of Working Together: 

Please note that coaching is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, or legal advice. I am not a licensed therapist, counselor, or working in the capacity of a healthcare provider with you. As the owner of the Early Career Physicians Institute and Amna Shabbir Wellness Coaching LLC, and a physician (MD), I bring a unique perspective to coaching. However, it is important to understand that our discussions are not to be misconstrued as therapy, counseling, or any clinical service. Furthermore, I am not your physician, and the content of our discussion does not constitute medical advice. If during our Session or at any point thereafter, it becomes apparent that you require specialized assistance, I may refer you to an appropriate professional.

Agreement Termination: 

This Session agreement does not bind either party to enter into a long-term coaching or consulting relationship. Following the session, we will mutually evaluate the outcomes and determine if continuing to work together is the right choice. 

By scheduling your Session via Calendly you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the terms and conditions outlined in this Session agreement.

Thank you for choosing to spend your precious time with me. I look forward to our upcoming session and the possibility of working together!

Amna Shabbir, MD, NBC-HWC, CPC
