Naila Ahmed

I am Naila Ahmed, an EMCC-accredited coach and founder of Reset Coaching.  I bring over 15 years of coaching experience, including a background of education, universities, charities, and community services. I have supported people from different cultural backgrounds through uncertainty, pressure, and significant life changes, including working in Jordan on various wellbeing projects.

I became a coach because I wanted to help people understand themselves better: what matters to them, which strengths they already have and what gives their life meaning and purpose what shapes their happiness and wellbeing. That understanding can make a real difference when you’re deciding what to do next.

I draw on applied positive psychology and coaching psychology in my work. One of the things I enjoy most is helping someone recognise a strength they’ve taken for granted. You might think you’re simply doing what needs to be done, but looking at how you’ve handled a difficult situation can show you something about yourself that you can use now.

Perhaps you’ve been going back and forth over whether to stay in a job, or you keep saying yes to things you don’t have time for. A change in your work, relationship or family life might have left you wondering what you want now. In our sessions, we can look at what matters to you, what’s making the choice difficult and what a realistic next step might be.

I’m interested in the whole picture. Family expectations, cultural values and the roles you play at work or at home can all influence what feels possible. Understanding those circumstances helps us work out what makes sense for you in the life you actually live. I understand that choices are rarely made in isolation. Family, culture, relationships and responsibilities can all influence what feels possible and what a fulfilling life means to you.

You do not need to have everything worked out before we begin. We can start with whatever’s on your mind.

In coaching, we can look at what’s keeping you in that position, what matters to you now and what you could do differently. That might mean making a decision you’ve been putting off, finding the words for a difficult conversation, or making time for something you’ve missed. You do not need to have everything worked out before we begin.

What we can work on

• Rebuilding confidence and trusting your own judgement.
• Understanding your needs alongside the responsibilities you carry.
• Setting boundaries and expressing what matters to you.
• Finding direction when a role, relationship or stage of life changes.
• Recognising your strengths and using them in everyday situations.
• Making more room for enjoyment, connection and a sense of purpose.

How our sessions work

We begin with what you would like to be different. Together, we explore what is happening now, what you want to move towards and what would make a meaningful difference in your everyday life.

My approach combines conversation with practical activities, visual tools and exercises informed by positive psychology and coaching psychology. Depending on what is useful for you, we might map out the areas of your life, explore your values and strengths, consider a decision from another perspective or practise a different response to a familiar situation.

You will have opportunities to try things between sessions, then discuss what helped, what felt difficult, and what needs adjusting. The work is shaped around you, with a clear purpose for our time together.
