David Cotterill MAC Professional Life Coach and Personal Development Consultant
Email meAbout me
I help people to achieve stability and change in their careers or business ventures, relationships and personal lives as quickly and efficiently as possible.
These are some of the issues I have been helping clients with this year:
- Clarity of career direction for a senior NHS consultant
- Career transition for a recruitment executive to a financial trader
- Confidence and clarity to secure first job placement for a legal graduate
- Transition from unexpected redundancy to a new executive role in London
- Transition from office worker to full time creative artist
- Overcoming worries about other people's opinions/social media for students
- Managing job uncertainty / new direction for both husband and wife!
- If you are looking for an understanding, non-judgmental and supportive Personal Coach, I would love to have a conversation with you.
How do I help my clients achieve stability and change?
I guide my clients to an understanding of how our individual experiences of life and the opinions of others shape how we view ourselves, keeping us from achieving the changes we want.
We explore how our thoughts and feelings influence and determine the decisions we make and the actions we take.
We achieve a shift from feeling like victims of a stressful 'outside in' model of the world to an enlightened and creative 'inside out' model which enables us to feel in control, releasing clarity of thought and fresh motivation to engage with life.
Together, we focus on the three primary areas of influence that must be addressed if real change is going to take place:
1. Our financial capability (beliefs about money),
2. Our relational stability (the influence of family and friends)
3. Our personal mindset (usually this can be the biggest obstacle to change!).
We put together a practical plan to turn your "I wish I could" into "I know I can!" and create the life you want, rather than the one you're putting up with.
We focus on these vital areas for change during our quick turnaround Discovery Day, which is the foundation of a short coaching programme that will take place over an agreed timescale, consisting of face to face sessions, on-line check-ins, emails and general support and collaboration.
If you would like to meet up, I can offer you an initial consultation either face to face or by phone/Skype.

Previous Client Case Studies & Client Comments:
Client AP "The sessions of coaching with David saw me through a difficult period of change in my personal and work life. It helped me move forward with a positive plan of action, which has made me feel stronger, happier and more confident in life. I would recommend David's life coaching to anyone going through difficult times or just seeking a change of directions in life".
Client C: "I wanted to let you know, David, that I am so happy compared to how I used to feel and that is all due to your help, support and therapy as I really am a different person now much stronger and more confident. I think the fact I have some clients now and I am also doing well in sales has been a massive step forward to me after the bullying and the mundane daily routine of the NHS. If it wasn't for you I really feel I would still be stuck there so thank you so much.”
Client, J "David provided a very relaxed but professional approach which made me feel at ease. His coaching helped me to think more clearly about critical decisions in my life and he taught me how to build my confidence and manage my emotions. He gave me the awareness and tools to think for myself. The balance was just right and he was able to adjust his methods to what was required at the time".
"SJ" a Skype client from London & Hong Kong:
"David taught me how to quickly relax and focus so I was able to deal with a recent break up and relocation. His techniques helped me to deal with acceptance and paved the way for a much clearer mindset - vital to ensure a successful relocation. His personal style of coaching helped me to realise my strengths and find a positive outcome that was right for me."
And finally, client SC sent me this message the day after his Discovery Day:"David, thank you for yesterday, it was awesome!
(Please note that these case studies/testimonies are from genuine clients which is why I've kept the identity of the individuals confidential. I would be happy to discuss the cases but will not divulge the client's identities as part of my professional duty of care to them).
Business Coaching Expansion Masterclass
The Masterclass was to encourage delegates to explore what holds them back from achieving their goals. This event, specifically for therapists, held over a half day, allowed me to work one-to-one with each delegate whilst the other attendees were able to observe and learn my techniques to help them in their own practices.
Here is some of the feedback from the delegates:
“The event made me focus on my goals for success and looking five years ahead clarified what I had already begun visioning. I was familiar with some of the techniques but it was good to be challenged around the area of success “
“Helped to overcome social networking phobia".
"Gained confidence to attend future events to promote service and generate referrals".
"Effective relaxation technique for self and timeline work could be useful for developing short-term work with referrals”.
“I feel an emotional blockage was released that allows me another step now towards standing more in my power to attract increasing business and wealth”.
“It was very interesting for me to be asked how I see myself in the future and to try to observe very honestly my own thought process to the asked questions, so it did help me to see what I really want out of life”.

Fees
I find the best results are achieved when we start our coaching relationship with a Discovery Day. This is usually 10am to 3pm during which time I will guide you to discover what present influences are affecting your ability to achieve the change you want and you will come away with a detailed psychological resume of your life experience to date, also specifically aimed to help you recognise patterns of thought and behaviour that can either help or hinder your transition. (Please see website for more details).
Following the Discovery Day, my standard coaching package fees are paid by monthly payment plans and discounted for pre-payment. We will calculate costs before we begin so you can plan your finances. As a guide, my fees are generally based on £60 per hour, that is also true for the Discovery Day.
The Discovery Day can either be at Billericay or one of several quality venues around Essex, such as Five Lakes Golf and Country Club or Orsett Hall.
I would also be able to discuss shorter sessional plans for specific issues, such as self-confidence, interview skills, big day nerves for driving tests or weddings.
I will be happy to meet with you for an initial consultation, either my at private consulting rooms at "The Change Agency" in Billericay, Essex or a neutral venue of your choice.

Three Principles coaching, training and mentoring also available.
Payment can be by bank transfer, credit/debit card or cash.
