About me

In the midst of continual change and uncertainty it is quite normal to get stuck or to loose direction or a clear vision of what is important to you.

Personal Development Coaching focusses on increasing your self awareness - looking at life goals, personal challenges and long standing aspirations.

As your Coach I will help you to recognise what changes you want to make in your life and how you can get there, as well as identifying the potential that already exists within you (and believe me when I say - there will be lots!) Through a series of questions designed to help you to recognise, accept and build upon your strengths and weaknesses I will help you to achieve this potential.

I won't necessarily offer direct advice and won't tell you exactly what to do. The Coaching process trusts that you already know most of the answers (or know where to go to get them) My role will be to ask you the right questions, challenge any limiting beliefs, and support you through a tailored personal development plan, in order for you to set realistic goals and continue to work on your aspirations outside of the coaching session.

You could think of coaching as a spring clean for your brain! As your Coach, I can help you to to re-organise your thoughts (and throw away any that are no longer helpful to you) goals, and aspirations.

I will start by helping you to evaluate where you are and what your life is like now. I will use different techniques- including open ended questioning - to help you to understand where you want to be and how you can get yourself there.

Through a series of sessions I can coach you on a range of topics including:-

Career / work goals
Career change
Redundancy
Fitness goals
Creative goals
Weight loss
Confidence
Business start up / development
Retirement Planning
Work / life balance
Time management

Wellbeing

Public speaking/ networking
All coaching sessions are currently taking place via Zoom or Skype.?

Testimonials
'Alison helped me to be open and find what is important to me as well as to set goals to help me complete. I am easily overwhelmed but I am now able to plan and even push myself  further because it is planned - even in new areas.

Alison listened and gave time for me to think and reply to her questions. She assisted me to work out personal barriers which held me back in my private and in business life.

I have learned how to set myself goals which are achievable, honest and really needed, that encourage me and do not over whelm me. Also to make sure these are tracked and rewarded.

Now I have goals  which are unique to me which has helped me to form an overall vision for the future'


"Coaching with Alison helped me enormously with coming to my own conclusions on how I can improve my life. She helped me to realise that, if you break things down into individual matters, you can achieve more than you think. I enjoyed my sessions immensely"

"I've had the pleasure of being coached by Alison for the last four months and the difference she has made to my thinking, the approach I have had to my business and the results I am now achieving has been outstanding. She has the ability to listen closely and ask the right questions to challenge my thinking at the right time. I would absolutely recommend Alison as a Coach and would want to ensure she works with me in the future".
