About me
Coaching could be one of the best gifts you give yourself.
How often do you get the opportunity to step away from everyday demands and focus entirely on you? Your ambitions, your ideas, what you'd love to achieve, and what might be possible.
Coaching gives you that space. Whether you're considering a new direction, developing your leadership, navigating change, or simply wanting to get more out of life, it's an opportunity to explore what's possible and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Coaching that looks beneath the surface:
As both a coach and an integrative counsellor, I bring a psychologically informed approach to coaching, grounded by my experience in business and leadership.
My training matters because what gets in our way isn't always obvious. We can explore not just the challenge in front of you, but the beliefs, assumptions, and patterns that may be shaping how you show up today. That understanding can open up new perspectives and choices. I don't give you the answers. I help you develop your thinking, so you leave coaching not just with greater clarity about today's challenges, but with the confidence and ability to approach tomorrow's differently.
Coaching and counselling are separate services in my practice. If you're looking for therapy, we'd contract for that differently.
Working together.
Clients tell me my style is warm, collaborative, and thought-provoking. I'll listen carefully, ask questions that invite different perspectives, and challenge your thinking when it's helpful.

Professional experience:
Before establishing my coaching and counselling practice, I spent over 20 years in corporate business, progressing through management and leadership roles before moving into leadership development. I led teams, developed leaders and delivered global talent and transformation programmes, gaining first-hand experience of the opportunities, challenges and responsibilities of leadership.
Today, I combine that background with thousands of hours of one-to-one coaching and counselling experience, working with people navigating personal and professional change.

Additional information
I offer life coaching and business and leadership coaching, both in person in Hackney Wick, East London, and online throughout the UK and internationally.
You can book a one-off coaching session or arrange ongoing sessions, depending on what you're looking for. I recommend 90-minute sessions, although 60-minute and two-hour sessions are also available. If we work together over several sessions, we'll agree on the frequency to suit your goals and circumstances.
Coaching and counselling are distinct services in my practice, each with its own professional framework and contract.
I offer a free 30-minute discovery call, where we can discuss what you're looking for, ask questions, and decide whether working together feels like the right fit. An opportunity to explore what you're looking for and whether we're a good fit.
