Terms & Conditions

In the spirit of good practise, when you are purchasing advisory services from me I ask you to confirm that you have read and agreed to each statement below and that you wish to proceed.

 

All advisory services and communication, email or otherwise, delivered by myself, Camille Le Boulba, as well as information on this website are meant to help you identify the areas in your life and in your thinking that may be preventing you from experiencing greater well-being and moving forward. Advisory is not a substitute for professional mental health care. 

 

The term ‘advisory’ as here used covers life coaching and personal coaching or clients.

 

Camille is continually striving to ensure the standard of service she provides to its clients remains excellent. At the end of the advisory process, or series of advisory sessions, the client will be asked to complete a feedback form

 

ADVISORY DISCLAIMER

 

I understand that the advisory services I will be receiving from my Advisor are not offered as a substitute for professional mental health care and are not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any mental health or medical conditions. I also understand that my Advisor is not acting as a mental health counsellor or a medical professional.

 

For legal purposes, I understand that coaching is currently an unregulated industry and that my Advisory is not “licensed “ by any UK body even though the sessions may take place in the UK.

 

I understand and agree that I am fully responsible for my well-being during my coaching sessions, and subsequently, including my choices and decisions.

 

I understand that coaching is not a substitute for counselling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health care or substance abuse treatment, and I will not use it in place of any form of therapy.

 

I understand that all comments and ideas offered by my Advisor are solely for the purpose of aiding me in achieving the defined goals I create with my Advisor. I have the ability to give my informed consent, and hereby give such consent to my advisor to assist me in achieving such goals and understand that results are not guaranteed.

 

I understand that my Advisor will protect my information as confidential unless I state otherwise in writing. If I report child, elder abuse or neglect or threaten to harm myself or someone else, I understand that necessary actions will be taken and my confidentiality agreement limited in this capacity. Furthermore, if my Advisor is ordered by a court to provide information or to testify, she will do so to the extent the law requires.

 

I understand that the use of technology is not always secure and I accept the risks of confidentiality in the use of email, text, phone, Zoom and other technology.

 

I hereby release, waive, acquit and forever discharge my Coach, any agents, successors, assigns, personal representatives, executors, heirs and employees from every claim, suit action, demand or right to compensation for damages I may claim to have or that I may have arising out of acts or omissions by myself or by my Advisor as a result of the advice given by my Advisor or otherwise resulting from the advisory relationship contemplated by this agreement.

 

I further declare and represent that no promise, inducement or agreement not expressed in this agreement has been made to me to sign this agreement. This agreement shall bind my heirs, executors, personal representatives, successors, assigns, and agents.

 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

The advisory schedule will be arranged between Camille and the client and can be booked up to 3 months in advance. Camille will recommend the frequency of the advisory sessions based on a professional assessment of the client’s requirements. This recommendation, or plan, is not binding and may be altered and adjusted throughout the coaching journey by mutual agreement, in accordance with the terms set out in this agreement.

 

The number and frequency of coaching session will be agreed at the start of coaching between Camille and the client. Where no specific number is agreed sessions will be provided on a session by session basis.

 

In return for the fees payable by the client (or by a third party on their behalf), Camille agrees to provide the service as described below and in accordance with the terms and conditions set out below. The client agrees to pay fees for the service on the terms and conditions set out below (in situations where a third party pays the fees, the third party counts as an agent acting on behalf of the client).

 

The date that the first advisory session takes place shall be deemed to be the start date for the service. Where any client is unhappy with any of the terms and conditions they can contact Camille to discuss any concerns and see if they can be resolved before the first coaching session. Participation by any individual in the first coaching session constitutes acceptance of these terms and conditions.

 

FORMAT OF SESSIONS

 

Face to face (venue by mutual agreement), via Zoom (client calls coach); telephone coaching sessions (client calls coach); or other format where such is agreed. Unless otherwise agreed, for Zoom and telephone sessions the client is responsible for telephoning Camille at agreed times. Camille is responsible for ensuring that she is available for consultation at agreed times.
The length of each session is as agreed between Camille and the client before coaching sessions commence.

 

SESSION FEES

 

In accordance with Camille’s current per session fee or fee for a programme of sessions, or any other such fee as shall be agreed and notified to the client.  The number of sessions for which payment is required in advance will be agreed before coaching sessions commence.

 

ADDITIONAL SESSIONS

 

Camille may agree to provide additional coaching sessions after completion of the initial agreed session(s). These terms and conditions will apply to any additional sessions so provided and the Per Session Fee will remain the same as originally agreed except where Camille notifies the client in writing by letter or e-mail of a change to the Fee or to any other term or condition in accordance with the section in these terms and conditions headed “Variation of Terms and Conditions”.

 

DATES AND TIMES OF SESSIONS

​

Sessions can only be rearranged in accordance with the section in these terms and conditions headed “Rearranging Sessions”.

 

PAYMENT TERMS

 

Fees can only be paid online by debit or credit card using the booking system. 

 

BETWEEN SESSIONS

 

Camille may assign the client tasks or exercises to complete between Advisory sessions. There is no obligation on the client to complete these items of ‘homework’, but not doing so may slow the client’s progress in gaining improved quality of life or achieving desired personal outcomes.

 

The client may contact Camille by phone or e-mail between sessions to seek clarification regarding anything arising from a coaching session or for administrative purposes (e.g. where a client needs to rearrange a coaching session or make a payment). Additional coaching can also be provided between sessions but there will be an additional charge for this. Camille will always advise a client in advance if the nature of a client’s contact is likely to incur an additional charge and no such charges will be imposed without the client’s agreement.

 

REARRANGING SESSIONS

 

If a client needs to rearrange a coaching session, they should provide at least 48 hours notice by email. No refunds will be given to clients for unused advisory sessions unless 48 hours notice has been given. In exceptional circumstances Camille may need to rearrange a coaching session. In those instances she will also give the client 48 hours notice where practical.

 

Where a client pays for a session or sessions in advance they must have the Advisory session(s) that they have paid for within 6 months of the payment or their fee is forfeited.

 

CONFIDENTIALITY

 

Personal information or business information supplied by clients in coaching sessions will be treated as confidential. It will not be disclosed to a third party without the client’s prior permission, save where required by law or where action might be necessary to prevent harm to the client or someone else.

 

EARLY TERMINATION

 

In exceptional circumstances, such as illness or unavailability due to bereavement or other commitments, inappropriate behaviour by the client, actual or potential conflict of interest, or other reasons, Camille can decide to terminate the service to the client early or refuse or be unable to provide further coaching sessions to the client. In such a circumstance the client will be given reasonable notice of termination by Camille where practicable and will be refunded any advance payments made for coaching sessions not yet provided.

 

RESPONSIBILITIES

 

Camille will seek to enable the client to improve their quality of life and to achieve their desired outcomes. Remarkable results can be achieved where clients follow a clear plan in a committed way. However, the client has sole responsibility for taking important decisions in their life. Camille has no liability for any loss incurred by any client, whether financial or otherwise, following commencement of coaching sessions, or for any perceived failure by the client, whether justified or otherwise, to achieve a material improvement in quality of life or to achieve their desired outcomes or goals.

 

VARIATION OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

Where an Initial Number of Sessions is agreed, any changes to these terms and conditions intended to take effect prior to the conclusion of those Initial Number of Sessions will only have effect if agreed by both Camille and the client and confirmed by Camille in writing by email or letter. In other cases, Camille may change any of these terms or conditions including the Per Session Fee by giving the client one week’s notice in writing by letter or e-mail of the change(s). If following receipt of such notification of change, the client no longer wishes to proceed with further coaching sessions, they may withdraw from the service immediately by giving notice in writing by email or letter and they will then be entitled to a full refund of any fees paid in advance for coaching sessions not yet provided. Such notice will be effective on receipt by Camille.

 

GOVERNING LAW

 

This contract is governed by the law of England whose courts have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any dispute, disagreement, proceedings or legal claim of any nature relating to the service provided or the contract.

 

FEEDBACK

 

Feedback about the service is welcomed and can be given during a coaching session or by email.
