Profile
About Me
Helping people to understand their strengths, build confidence and self belief and use these to achieve their goals, is my passion.
My coaching practice has evolved over the years, encompassing experience gained through roles as Sales Director, Senior L&D positions within large organisations, consultancy and my own business. The focus in all of these areas has been in helping people to enhance their performance and results in all areas of their life.
Along the way I trained as a psychotherapist and integrated those skills with business and life coaching so that I could work in a more integrated way with people.
Life is about many aspects and essentially it is about balance in all of them - career, health, wealth, relationship or family related. Raising awareness of what it is you do,what it is you want and acquiring some knowledge, skills and tools that provide you with choices and options, is what I do.
What is Life Coaching
The world is changing faster than ever before. Every aspect of our lives is changing, the way we shop, work, are educated, communicate, socialise. When there is so much change happening it is easy to lose our sense of direction and purpose.
Most of us are aware of what it is we don't want in our lives, but we are not always clear on what we do want, or what we need to do in order to make changes. My area of expertise is in working with individuals, helping them to gain clarity on what they want and what they need to do in order to succeed in achieving their goals.
My Coaching Style
Coaching is a confidential 121 relationship between two people. I will work with you to clarify your goals and help you to determine how to best achieve them.
It sounds simple and indeed it is, however in this increasingly busy world very few people have time to stop for long enough to reflect or “see the wood for the trees”. This can result in feeling stuck in a rut, repeating the same mistakes, having a poor work/life balance and feeling out of control.
Coaching is about many things, however, principally it is about behavioural change that benefits you at home, at work and the results that you achieve. In effect it addresses the whole person which tends to result in sustainable change rather than short term fixes.
Coaching is not therapy or counselling. I will have faith in you, listen to what you say and also what you don’t say. I will challenge your thinking with questions to encourage deeper self awareness. I will be flexible and am able to offer tools or models where appropriate to help you explore your personality, thinking or problems.
The agenda is always yours and you should always feel that you have been truly heard although you may have had to work hard along the way.
This sounds easy, but many people find this extremely challenging and if you don’t feel ready to take responsibility for your behaviours and results then coaching may not be suitable for you – yet. The good news is that this process is extremely empowering and if you do embrace the process with open arms the results are swift and powerful.
Your Programme
Once I receive your enquiry I will send you a Discovery Questionnaire so that I can learn a little about you before our first session. The questionnaire will also enable you to focus your thinking and increase your self awareness. We will then begin with an initial free session where we will explore your responses to the questionnaire and discuss your goals and how us working together will help you achieve them. We will then agree a contract that will enable us to stay focused and support you in moving towards your goals.
The coaching programmes are delivered in sessions of four 60 minute telephone sessions approximately 2 weeks apart. The real coaching happens between the sessions when you take the understanding and increased awareness gained through our conversations and you take actions that we will build on in each session.
