About me
You only live once, so why not make it a life that truly works for you? One where you feel empowered, in control and free to be yourself. Moving towards what truly matters.
Life changes, along with breaking unhelpful habits, developing new ones that fit into daily life and building confidence can feel daunting. But sometimes one small idea, one small step is all it takes to start a ripple effect that leads to something bigger. In our coaching sessions we will work together in a safe, supportive space to explore what’s working, what’s not and figure out changes that actually work for you, at your own pace.
I enjoy working with people who are neurodivergent (with or without a diagnosis) who have spent their lives masking to fit in, helping them to rediscover their authentic selves and create a life where they feel truly accepted and understood.
Life is for living, not just for getting by.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a certified level 5 life coach with over 25 years of experience working with autistic and ADHD individuals. Supporting people to navigate life in a way that works for them. As someone with personal lived experience of neurodivergence, I understand these challenges firsthand, but more importantly I know that everyone is different and how essential it is to find a way of working that suits you.
In my professional roles I have worked alongside education, mental health services and social care, empowering autistic people to question the systems and get the support that keeps them truly at the centre. I believe that communication is the key to developing awareness and understanding.
I am a qualified (post 16) teacher as well as a qualified gym instructor. Health and fitness is an important part of my life, (but it hasn’t always been the case).
Over the years I have taken part in many challenges that I wasn’t 100% sure that I could complete. I am a firm believer in creating a life that is worth living. Sure, it is great to achieve a goal, but the real pleasure is in the scenery along the way…
I have a varied career background that includes experience of running and owning my own business for 8 years (pottery painting studio) which I grew organically.
I know that life transitions can cause overwhelm or periods of feeling unsettled and out of control. My goal is to help you unpick the challenge, identify practical solutions that work for you. This may include a career change, family dynamics or life stage such as menopause.

Further information
The fact that you are looking into coaching means that you have made the first step, now it is just a case of finding the coach that suits you.
My coaching is person-centred and trauma informed, ensuring that each session is totally unique to you, there is not a ‘one size fits all’ approach. This means that together we will break things down into manageable steps at a pace that truly works for you.
I have a friendly, down to earth approach - no pressure, just support.
You don’t have to be neurodivergent to work with me, but here are some ways that my coaching can help if you are unsure
- Struggling with overwhelm? We can break things down into manageable steps, so that life feels less chaotic.
- Exhausted from masking? We can work on building confidence, self-esteem and self-awareness in order to be YOU.
- Wondering if you should tell people about a diagnosis (self diagnosis is very valid)? We can discuss what it means to you and work out your values whilst working on your own identity and what adjustments would be useful for you in daily life.
- Finding it hard to create or stick to habits? We will develop strategies that actually work for you.
- Navigating a life change? I can help you to find clarity and feel more in control in the changes ahead.
