Disclaimer:

Please note that our services are not to be used as a substitute for professional mental health care or therapy. You are responsible for creating and implementing your own physical, mental and emotional wellbeing, decisions, choices, actions or inaction or for any direct or indirect result of any services provided by the coach.

Our coaching does not prevent, cure or treat any mental disorder or medical disease. It does not substitute professional advice made by legal, mental, medical or other qualified professionals and will seek independent professional guidance for such matters.

Although our programmes improve your mental health and your professional mindset, it is important to seek professional help, whether it be based on any traumas you have experienced or other conditions.

If you are currently under the care of a mental health professional, we would recommend that you inform your mental health care provider and may have to provide a referral letter on their behalf.

The coach agrees to maintain the code of ethics and standards of behaviour when conducting these coaching sessions. We will ensure that the client is comfortable and safe. 

The client agrees to communicate honestly, be open to the feedback and guidance provided and dedicate their time and energy to participate fully into the course or coaching session.

Coaching/Classes

You are required to pay for the specified number of classes/workshops/sessions you are agreeing to attend, regardless of the number of classes that you end up attending.

Please note that the intention of the sessions is educational and should not be considered as a job interview/audition. Attendance is not a way to obtain employment as an actor. It is a learning/educational experience. If there is a presence of an industry professional, this is neither a guarantee nor a promise of employment.

Fees are non-refundable, non-transferable and non-exchangeable, except in exceptional circumstances as agreed with Michaela McCormick, Empower Coaching and Performance LTD.
