About me
As a coach and mentor, I provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore potential pathways to overcome issues or concerns which are holding you back.
Being empathetic I will actively listen to you, and might gently challenge you to consider new ideas for discovery and self-improvement.
I have extensive experience of working with children and adults with ADHD and Autism.
We are a team: I want you to arrive at your desired outcome as much as you do!
I have an informal and relaxed approach and draw upon my experience from 30 years in education from an educational, leadership and personal perspective.
I am a skilled listener who creates a relaxed yet supportive environment where you will have the opportunity to consider your options, develop knowledge about how you work best and create strategies to make any change to your current situation that will take you forward..
I am passionate about creating resilience, developing wellbeing, and enhancing performance, particularly when establishing a comfortable balance between the demands of work and home. I firmly believe you can adopt a ‘can do’ attitude by taking small steps to achieve your desired outcome.
If you are looking for interview practice I can coach and guide you on how to best present yourself.
Training, qualifications & experience
- EMCC Accredited Coach Practitioner

Originally gaining a B.Ed (Hons) Primary degree, and having taught in Primary schools for 18 years, I moved to secondary ASN (additional support needs) in 2005. From 2009 - 2020 I held promoted posts supporting young people in secondary environments with Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, and other conditions which created a block to their learning.
I successfully completed Columba 1400 HTLA in 2019, achieving GTCS professional recognition for my reflective essay.
Since joining EMCC in March 2021, I achieved accreditation as Practitioner Coach, and Practitioner Team Coach.

Further information
While much of my work is online, I am available for face to face sessions, which can be done in my home, a local café, or while walking.
I enjoy working with a wide range of clients, including those with neurodiverse conditions, including ADHD and Autism. Practised in Trauma Informed approaches, I will support as best I can or refer clients to therapeutic services, if I believe this is more appropriate.
Continuous professional development is a key driver for me and I continue to learn and develop through reading, training, online webinars, network events and supervision.
