How it works
From maybe to meeting.
Explore without an account. Read the profile, see the rate, and reach out when someone’s approach fits.
Walk through the detailsPick someone
Start with focus area or state, then follow your curiosity. Browsing is free and needs no account. Every profile shows the coach's chosen hourly rate and the date they last confirmed their details.
Say hello
When a profile feels promising, send a free session request with a little context and a few times that work. The coach replies by email, usually within 1-2 business days.
Meet online
Most coaches offer online sessions, so place does not have to decide the fit. If you want to meet in person, look for that option on the profile.
Trust

How do I know what a session costs?
Each coach sets their own hourly rate, and you see it on the profile before requesting a session. Rate ranges are based on typical living wages where each coach lives. There is no package, membership, or booking fee to add — the shown session rate is the whole bill.
Can I look around without signing up?
Yes. It is free to search, compare coaches, and request a session, and no account is required. You pay only the session rate chosen by the coach.
What has each coach been checked for?
Every coach applies, has the application reviewed, and verifies their identity through Persona before the listing is published. The profile shows when its rate, availability, and other details were last confirmed.
Are sessions online or in person?
Most coaches offer online sessions. When in-person sessions are available, that option is marked on the profile.
How does a coach join the directory?
The “Coach application” form takes about five minutes to complete. Listing is free. When you get paid, TalkDoc Coaching keeps 20% of each session as a platform fee — you keep 80% of the rate you set.
What does it cost to be listed?
There is no signup cost or monthly fee. Instead, TalkDoc Coaching keeps a 20% platform fee from each paid session, and you keep 80% of the hourly rate you set. For example, at $10/hour you would receive $8.00 per hour.
