We know what you’re thinking – “I don’t like the sound of virtual…where’s that cancel button?”
Of course, it’s not quite the same as in-person and we love connecting in real life as much as anyone.
Yet, Sanctus Virtual allows us to connect with people wherever we are in the world and makes talking about your mental health with one of our Sanctus Coaches really easy.
Below is all you need to know about having a Virtual Sanctus Session.
Why should I have a virtual session?
The success and power of coaching lies in the connection between the coach and the coachee. Sure, the medium might be a little different, but it’s still the same two people having the same conversation.
The conversation that you’ll have, the support that you need, the things that you want to talk about…that won’t change just because you’re over a laptop.
The biggest hurdle is often the first session. It’s still the same Sanctus experience, and we’ve found that once people try it, they love it.
FAQs, misconceptions and fears
We’re Sanctus Users too and have been where you are.
Feeling a little nervous before a Sanctus Session is so normal and it is when it’s Sanctus Virtual too. As people opening up or sharing during Sanctus Virtual we might be concerned we won’t be met in the same way, or we won’t be able to share how we might normally.
These worries are universal and we’ve had them too, yet there’s a lot of unnecessary fear and misconceptions about connecting with a Sanctus Coach virtually that we know once you move past you can have incredibly powerful and impactful coaching online.
We’ve covered all of the questions and fears you might have here.
