About me

Bespoke Coaching That Works For You
 
Are you ready for real, lasting change? Whether you're navigating a career shift, building confidence, or managing ADHD, I’m here to support you. My coaching is designed to fit your unique journey, helping you gain clarity, confidence, and strategies that really work. 
 
Why Choose Me?
I’m an accredited senior coach practitioner (EMCC) and accredited therapist (BACP) with over a decade of experience in psychotherapy, which means I bring a deep understanding of how people grow and thrive. My approach is Therapeutic Coaching - a blend of coaching and therapy that flexes with your needs. Since I have ADHD myself, I truly get what it’s like to balance challenges and strengths in both personal and professional life. 
 
Does any of this sound familiar? 
✔ You’re feeling stuck in your career and unsure of your next steps 
✔ You want to build your confidence and make decisions with ease 
✔ ADHD makes focus, time management, and productivity a challenge 
✔ You’re juggling personal and professional demands and feeling overwhelmed 
✔ You’re looking to grow, develop, and take control of your future 
 
Through our coaching sessions, we’ll work together to: 
✔ Get clear on what’s holding you back and we'll co-create what’s possible 
✔ Build strategies that help you work with your ADHD, not against it 
✔ Make confident decisions and trust yourself more 
✔ Strengthen relationships and communicate more effectively 
✔ Align your career with your values and ambitions 
✔ Set meaningful goals, and actually achieve them! 
✔ Feel more in control, motivated, and ready to move forward 
 
Let’s Make It Happen 
Whether you’re a business leader, entrepreneur, executive, or someone looking to build a life that feels more aligned, I’d love to support you. This isn’t just about making changes; it’s about making changes that last.  
 
Book a call with me today - I can’t wait to help you unlock your potential!

I have thousands of hours of experience in supporting extraordinary people, like you, to make significant changes in their lives.

Each year, I engage in over 100 hours of continuous professional development to make sure my existing skills stay sharp, and so I'm always learning new resources and tools to enrich my practice, and your experience.
