HOW MUCH DOES COACHING COST? 

If you're thinking about coaching, you may be wondering how much such support costs and what you can expect. The good news is: Coaching is as individual as your goals and your life situation – and this is reflected in the costs as well.

However, one thing is clear: Good guidance has its value. A coach helps you overcome obstacles, gain clarity about your goals, and take your next steps with confidence. This support can help you make faster and more targeted progress – both professionally and personally.

The Range of Hourly Rates
 

Prices for a coaching session in Germany vary widely. They can range from 80 Euros to over 250 Euros per hour. The difference is influenced by factors such as:

​

• Coach's qualifications & experience: A coach with years of experience and extensive training can charge higher fees.

• Area of focus: Personal coaching (e.g., life goals, self-discovery) is often cheaper than business coaching.

• Regional differences: Prices tend to be higher in big cities like Berlin, Hamburg, or Munich compared to smaller towns.

• Duration & scope of coaching: Package deals or longer-term coaching may offer discounts or flat rates.

 

According to the RAUEN Coaching Market Analysis 2024, the average fee is approximately 175.98 Euros net per hour.

Coaching as the Key to More Success and Satisfaction
 

While you may initially think about the costs, you should also consider the value that coaching brings to you:

• New perspectives: A coach helps you expand your view and develop solutions that you may not have discovered on your own.

• Faster results: With a clear strategy, you save time and energy on your way to your goals.

• Sustainable changes: Coaching aims to not only achieve short-term success but also to strengthen you in the long run – both professionally and personally.

Coaching as an Investment in Yourself
 

Coaching is not an expense, but an investment – in your personal development, well-being, and future. Many clients report that after just a few sessions, they have clearer insights, make better decisions, and pursue their goals with more inner confidence.

How Do I Find the Right Coach for My Budget?

​​

• Transparency: Many coaches list their rates on their websites or clarify them during a free initial consultation.

• Check for funding options: In some cases, there are funding programs like the Activation and Placement Voucher (AVGS), which allow coaching with certified coaches at no cost. [More about this here.]

• Use trial sessions: Many coaches offer a free or discounted introductory session. This allows you to see if the coach is the right fit for you.

What is Your Future Worth?
 

The question isn’t how much coaching costs, but how much your personal and professional development is worth to you. Consider: What could you achieve if you were given the right impulses and tools? Your future starts with a decision.
