About me
Coaching can help you notice the patterns and stories that keep you stuck, and gradually free yourself from them.
I have extensive experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds and understand how important it is to feel seen and safe when exploring themes such as relationships, identity and belonging.
My approach is also informed by many years of secular meditation practice. As a classical musician, I gained first-hand insight into how performance anxiety affects the body – which led me to train and work in stress management from 2007–08 onwards.

Areas of coaching I deal with
Fees
Additional information
Fees vary depending on length (60 or 90 minutes) and whether you book a single appointment or a block of sessions. Reduced-fee options are available for students and others on lower incomes.
Sessions are held online and frequency is flexible, ranging from weekly to monthly, depending on your needs.
Initial conversation
At the heart of effective coaching or therapy is a sense of ease and trust that allows the work to develop naturally. For this reason, I offer a free initial conversation to explore whether we're a good fit.
