About Your Next Exciting Opportunity!

Facilitated coaching is a one-to-one service that is carer led and directed. The coaching service aims to support carers to increase their individual agency, empowering them to find practical, small steps towards self-identified goals. It involves the carer engaging with a coach to assist them to acquire skills and resilience to help them sustain their caring role.

The service duration of facilitated coaching is between one (1) and six (6) sessions and can be conducted face to face, over the phone or over online channels. Over the course of the coaching sessions, the trained Carer Gateway coach will work with the carer to identify their personal goal(s) and to create, implement and maintain an action plan for working towards these goal(s).
