I wouldn't have thought that so much could happen in one hour.

A new life in 60 minutes - through coaching

Imagine that your life has changed: A nagging old knot has been untied. A blocking fear of dogs, exams or appearances has finally disappeared. You have found a clear perspective on what you want to do with yourself and your life. And you now have the courage to do what you dream of.

I often experience such "miracles" as a coach. I love supporting people in a competent, empathetic and encouraging way and helping them to break out of old patterns. 

If you treat yourself to professional support, an hour or two is often enough to make a big step forward.

I experience this regularly and find it wonderful...

I am simply amazed at how effective and fast this coaching method is: already in the 1st hour a huge blockage was solved, which had been worked on unsuccessfully for several years.

Typical questions with which people come to me for coaching

Every person is unique and has their own questions. The following topics are relatively common reasons for coaching:

  • I want to realise my potential.
  • A dream lives inside me, but I don't know how to realise it. 
  • I have so many ideas that I don't know how to make the right choice
  • I want to get rid of my fear of spiders / performances / conflicts / aeroplanes / dogs / men / women ...
  • I've tried to lose weight X times without success or ... and I can't do it on my own.
  • I want to be better organised and more relaxed

You often struggle in vain on your own. You may be familiar with this: you've already pondered a problem X number of times - but it's only cost you time and energy. And achieved nothing. You don't need to go on like this. 

As a knot untangler, a person who helps you see through and an encourager, I am happy to accompany you on your path to freedom and strength. Both with personal and professional issues, such as how to successfully build your business and win customers.

I coach live in Berlin, on the phone or online via Zoom.

Do you still have questions?

Are you interested in the processes and details? Here is a selection of answers:

We have created a separate page for this purpose: https://kerstinhack.de/coaching/coaching-bedingungen/

I am trained in systemic coaching and other short-term coaching methods.

As a systemic coach and supervisor, I am certified by the Systemic Society (SG). I have also trained as a trainer for non-violent communication (NVC), I am a Wingwave coach and consultant for bottleneck-focussed strategy (EKS), as well as a business coach for systemic short-term concepts.

The coaching guest chooses the form of address that he or she prefers. 

In my newsletter and on my website, I use the "you" form of address. The "you" seems too stiff to me. People also grasp content more quickly when they are addressed as "you".

During coaching, the coaching guest chooses the form of address they prefer. I feel comfortable with both the "you" and the "you".

Name and contact details are sufficient.

The coaching methods in which I am trained aim to help the person I am coaching to find their own solutions by asking specific questions. Self-developed solutions usually have far more power than ideas that are brought to you from outside.

That's why it's good for me if I don't know much about the question or the problem before the process, so that I'm not tempted to think up a solution for the other person, but can concentrate fully on my role as a supporter in the search for a solution.

Individual coaching hours:
Many issues can be resolved in a single hour or even just two or three hours. Here, and also if you want to retain financial and scheduling flexibility, it is advisable to book individual coaching hours, which are charged separately.

Coaching packages:
If you want to shed light on a more complex topic, or if you would like support over a longer period of time, or if you find it supportive to have committed to something, then it can make sense to book a coaching package. 
Coaching packages are individually tailored to the client's needs. As a rule, a package of 4, 6 or 12 hours of coaching is recommended. The hourly rate for coaching packages is slightly lower than for individual coaching, and the customer usually receives additional services tailored to their topic, e.g. books, webinars or courses. Once the coaching process has started, it is no longer possible to cancel. 

In the coaching rooms on my ship, on the phone or online via Zoom.
Unless otherwise agreed, coaching takes place by telephone, online via Zoom or on my coaching and seminar ship in Berlin-Schöneweide. Directions will be sent with the booking confirmation after booking an appointment.
On-site coaching at the customer's premises is possible by arrangement if half-day or full-day coaching sessions are booked.
In addition to reimbursement of travel expenses per hour of travelling time, additional costs of 50% of the coaching fee will be incurred. are to be used.

You can usually get an appointment two weeks in advance.

I usually coach on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 14:00 - 18:00. You can see which dates are available in the near future on the online booking form.

You tell me your topic and the desired goal. I will support you in finding the way there.
After getting to know each other briefly, you name the issue that is bothering you and the change you would like to see. We then talk about it together using specific coaching questions and tools to develop a solution. A coaching session can be a one-off - on a specific topic. However, it is also possible for me to accompany you through a personal or professional process over several weeks or months. You will receive an invoice for the coaching, which you then pay by bank transfer.

Yes, you can also cancel agreed appointments. Fees may be charged for cancellations at short notice.
It can happen that something important comes up or that the mere fact of tackling an issue with the help of coaching sets so much in motion that the coaching is no longer necessary. This has all happened to me. I understand that.
However, if you cancel an appointment less than 4 calendar days in advance, a cancellation fee of 20% of the coaching fee must be paid. If the cancellation is made by email or telephone on the day of the agreed appointment or if you fail to cancel the coaching session, the fee must be paid in full.

I recommend starting with two hours and extending if necessary.
There is no such thing as "normal" in coaching. Every coaching process is as different as the people who take advantage of it. The needs vary from person to person. Nevertheless, here are a few guidelines.

I am trained in short-term coaching methods. This gives me the experience and techniques to untangle knots relatively quickly and set positive processes in motion. Coaching clients often experience changes with me in one or a few hours that would take much longer with other forms of support.

And I want to empower people to become stronger and soon be able to manage without my support. The effect of coaching is often characterised by Quadro training booklets The programme is reinforced by a range of tools that customers can use to explore the topic in question in greater depth.

It can therefore be very quick to solve a problem. One hour of coaching per issue is often enough to solve something or initiate lasting change.
I always recommend booking at least two hours, because further changes and improvements are often identified during the evaluation in the second meeting - this then gives you even more strength.

If you want to work on several, perhaps interlinked topics, I recommend planning one hour per topic.

Yes, all coaching content will be treated confidentially.

Unlike other professional groups such as doctors or priests, coaches are not legally obliged to maintain confidentiality. But for me, it is a matter of honour that the content of the coaching is treated confidentially and not disclosed to the outside world.

Supervisions with colleagues to discuss work-related issues are an exception to confidentiality. Situations from coaching can be discussed - anonymised, of course, and with modified social details.

My coaching rates are in the middle range.

Yes, you can get coaching in Berlin for less money. As a coach, you pay VAT, income tax, room hire, membership fees, bookkeeping, tax consultant and much more.

With very low hourly rates, there is no budget left for further training. However, it is important to me that I can offer you the best possible quality.

That's why I have completed five solid coaching training programmes. Every year, I invest large sums in several in-depth training courses and specialised literature. I do this in order to be up to date and to be able to offer you extremely high-quality and helpful coaching.

In practical terms, this means that an hour with me costs more than with a coach who does not invest so heavily in further training. This can mean that it takes him or her longer to help you achieve the desired result.

I usually have two coaching places available for people with low or no income, which you can apply for if you need them.

My hourly rates are comparatively moderate in order to enable many people to receive coaching from me

"What, so cheap?" is a reaction I often hear from people who know what consultants and coaches - especially in the business world - charge in terms of coaching fees.

The reason: it was important to me to give as many people as possible access to coaching. That's why I chose an hourly rate that covers my costs, enables me to offer further training and is still affordable for most clients.

I have the tools and the will to help people solve problems quickly.

My three secrets

1. i like it fast. I was born in 30 minutes and haven't slowed down much since then. All my life I have been fascinated by approaches that are compact, efficient and sustainable. Why talk for 25 hours when you can untie the knot in an hour?

That is why I have trained in several powerful short-term coaching methods. As a result, I have the tools and of course years of experience to quickly get to the heart of an issue, untangle knots relatively quickly and set positive processes in motion. As a result, my coaching clients often experience changes in a short space of time that usually take longer with other forms of counselling.

2 I don't want to make people dependent on me. It is also one of my principles to enable people to manage without my support as soon as possible.

3. i use additional tools. As a supplement to coaching, I like to use the Quadro training booklets, to deepen the respective topic. This further enhances the effect.
