About me

Are you fed up with being taken advantage of in your relationships? Are you avoiding conflict, feeling anxious and pretending everything is fine?

Hi, I’m Helen and I’ve been there. After 20 years in an unhealthy relationship I know how confusing and lonely it can feel. As an award-winning Confidence Coach I will help you develop rewarding relationships where your own needs and boundaries are respected and you feel at ease being yourself.

I specialise in helping women like you to:

  • Discover your unshakeable core of power and peace
  • Make YOU the centre of your life
  • Value and trust your feelings, instincts and needs
  • Develop effective communication and relationship skills
  • Set high standards for comfort and joy in your relationships

Together we’ll work to reset your compass so that you can leave behind dramas from the past and instead consciously create rewarding relationships and nourishing connections that enhance your life rather than draining it.

You will let go of any relationship patterns holding you back from genuine connection.

Let’s start a conversation. Reach out to me and let’s explore how you can transform your relationships. Your journey to rewarding relationships that feel good begins right here.

Throughout your coaching journey, either from the comfort of your own home with online sessions or in a beautiful setting in Guildford, Surrey, we will work together so you feel confident, strong, can communicate with clarity, develop rewarding relationships, navigate conflict and experience more joy in your life.

I studied Psychology at university and have continued to study connection, communication, conflict, relationships and identity ever since. I am able to go deep with clients to dark places to bring out transformation that lasts.

My background.

Do you feel like you can’t talk to anyone because they wouldn’t understand and you hate to ask for help? You keep giving in your relationships and not getting back. You keep attracting the bad guys. You are confused about who you are, keep getting ill or exhausted and wonder if there is any more to life than this.

I was at that point too - I used to work long and hard hours, saying ‘Yes’ to every request and demand. I got so tired but I didn’t even notice the aches and pains in my wrists and hands until one day I couldn’t sleep. I had developed repetitive strain injury (RSI) from always putting others first in my job and was exhausted.

In my relationships I would give and give and feel so empty and alone. I didn’t know what I wanted - I never thought about it. I was in a toxic relationship for a long time. I was never happy but thought I could help him be happy. It was the day I realised I had lost myself that I knew I needed to change.

There had to be more to life than this, I had to ask for help.

It has been a long road of reclaiming my power and now I help others just like you on their journey to confidence, power and an amazing life.

Testimonials

"I came to coaching to figure out what I wanted in a partner, how to handle conflict and how not to lose myself in a relationship. I couldn’t face another heart break. From coaching I have learnt NOT to settle in my relationships; to trust my instincts and that I need to speak up sooner when I am not happy about something. I would recommend Helen to anyone who needs some support with their relationships." Carrie J, Teacher, Surrey

"I was looking to everyone else for approval. My aim was to find my own voice and start directing my own life. Fear was (and is) probably my biggest challenge and although I still find this hard I have made progress. I have made positive steps and changes to the way I think and to the way I respond. Helen she has helped me untangle emotional knots and see clearly what I want for my future." Judy, Retired Graphic Designer, Surrey

"Helen’s ideas and ways of coaching are really simple concepts that, when tried out, feel like a breath of fresh air, compared to the crazy-making alternatives of worrying about others. I’m now able to check myself when my mind is taking me to old places of habit." Clara, Singer, Dorset
