About me
Insightful, personable, empathic and a complete optimist. Was on dialysis and then had a kidney transplant over 30 years ago. Still have the same transplant today. A few years after the transplant I was diagnosed as bi-polar.
Have done a lot of work on myself, learnt a lot along the way and now enjoy a rewarding and good life I am proud of.
Have a good degree and relevant qualifications which I am adding to all the time.
Specialise in helping individuals who are struggling get to a more rewarding & enjoyable life as I have done. We can discuss any specific goal/s you may have in our Chemistry Call or you may just want general support and the goal/s become apparent as we go along.

Experience:
I am starting out as a Coach & Mentor. I have confidence in my ability ..I worked with a life coach for 5 years and by the end of that period she said if she was stuck she would come to me. You can assess me in our chemistry call.
I worked for Together for Mental Wellbeing in a residence in Winchester catering for mental health sufferers with the goal they go to less supported living.
I volunteered for Mind, speaking to dementia sufferers & their carers to see if they need more acute support and to reassure them. One call I would speak to an individual who was so happy and 10 minutes later I would speak to someone who had just lost his wife & best friend. I coped fine so I think this demonstrates I will be able to cope with your issues no matter how severe they are. .

Further information
I have professional qualifications but above all I have really lived it. I have come through it all to live a good life, achieved through self-belief, tenacity and luck in meeting key individuals along the way. I will make my best effort to bring all this to you, my client.
Also worth mentioning is I have experienced several styles of coaching and therapy along the way and currently have a wonderful coach. I have learnt a lot from these people.
