Feedback from clients

  • GOAL SETTING I love how Cath made me feel confident and positive in achieving my goal. She has an incredible ability to help people see their own strengths! Thanks Cath

  • GOAL SETTING. When I first came in, I was really nervous about it (setting goals) because I’d never done them before. I thought that there would be this pressure to make sure I did exactly what we talked about. But it’s been a surprise - it didn’t feel so overwhelming. The way you broke it down into the little steps. It was just a good and easy process

  • COACHING. For the past two years I have been given the opportunity to work with Cath Grealy. Together we have explored who I am as an educator within the inclusive curriculum and education space. Cath is extremely supportive; she connects with you in way that encourages and challenges you. After going through this ‘guided self-reflection’ process I leave each coaching session feeling more confident and capable to co-contribute within a team to the learning of ‘all’ members of our school community.
