About me
Hello, and thank you for viewing my profile and services offered. As a trained certified life coach and approved mental health peer support coach, I specialise in helping clients develop good mental health and overall mental wellbeing.
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about the future due to poor mental health? I help individuals overcome limiting beliefs, create a vision for the future, and develop actionable plans to achieve their goals. My approach is supportive, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs, supporting overall wellbeing and maintaining good mental health. I am here to guide and motivate you every step of the way. Let's work together to create the life you deserve.
A bit about myself, I previously served 10 years in the UK armed forces. I have since worked and graduated in adult social care and criminal justice, mostly working in mental health and substance misuse in a variety of roles. I currently work in adult mental health in the NHS as a peer support specialist and have been DBS checked.
Twenty-five years ago, I had a second serious brain injury and was subsequentley diagnosed with bipolar affective disorder. I have my own personal lived experience of life's challenges, living with mental illness, as well as having professional experience in coaching and mentoring. I have genuine empathy and a shared understanding of life's troubles, living with mental illness and poor mental health. I hope this helps to make you feel safe and heard on your journey towards having good mental health and wellbeing.
I hold professional membership with the International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine or IPHM, and the Federation of Holistic Therapists or FHT.
