About me

I am a Chartered Psychologist and a Certified Coach. I have been coached myself and I found the process so powerful that I decided to train as a coach.

I strongly believe that every individual has the right and ability to reach their full potential and that is why I dedicated my life to making sure this happens for each and every one of my clients.

I have been trained to skillfully weave psychological approaches to the coaching process, always explaining the evidence base behind each intervention .

My transformational coaching approach not only challenges your limiting beliefs and assumptions in a non-judgmental and compassionate way, it is results driven and it helps you build a sustainable plan to maintain the changes achieved during the coaching process.

Finally, I have been trained in group approaches and I regularly run team away days and team interventions to suit your team's needs. I use the coaching for capability approach, which is evidenced to allow for time to reflect on existing strengths , explore learning needs/areas for development and set powerful actions to move your team forward to its ideal productivity levels.

Training, qualifications & experience

I work as a business and personal coach, as my transformational approach is highly effective in all areas of life and business. I coach NHS managers, NHS teams and individuals from all walks of life who want to set and achieve goals in their personal and/or professional life.
