About me

My name is Steph, and I understand that choosing a life coach can feel like a big step. Finding someone you feel comfortable with, who understands you and who you can be completely yourself with, is important. So here is a little bit about me and how I work.

I am a down-to-earth, fun and quirky person who genuinely believes that everyone has the ability to create positive change in their life. I see the best in people and recognise that we all have different experiences, personalities, strengths and challenges. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I certainly don't believe that you need to have everything figured out before you start coaching.

My approach to coaching is supportive, honest, practical, and focused on you. Rather than simply telling you what you should do, I work alongside you to understand where you are now, where you want to be, and what might be getting in the way. Together, we can identify what is important to you, break bigger goals down into manageable steps, and develop practical strategies that fit your life and the way you work.

My goal is to help you feel more confident, motivated, and capable of making the changes you want to make. Whether you're feeling stuck, lacking direction, struggling with confidence, or simply know that you want something different, coaching can give you the space to stop, reflect, and work out what comes next.

I particularly enjoy working with people who think differently and may have found that traditional approaches to goal-setting, organisation or productivity don't always work for them. I have a particular understanding of ADHD, autism and neurodivergence and the ways these can influence motivation, focus, time management, overwhelm, procrastination, confidence and everyday life.

Coaching can be adapted around you. We can explore practical tools and strategies for areas such as:

  • Confidence and self-belief
  • Personal development
  • Career and professional goals
  • Motivation and procrastination
  • Time management and organisation
  • Focus and productivity
  • Life transitions and change
  • Setting boundaries
  • Decision making
  • Relationships and communication
  • Identifying your values and priorities
  • Achieving personal goals
  • Building healthier routines and habits
  • Managing overwhelm
  • Neurodivergent-friendly strategies

I am honest, compassionate, and straightforward, and I won't judge you or tell you how you 'should' live your life. Sometimes you need someone who will encourage you, sometimes you need someone who will challenge you, and sometimes you simply need someone to help you see things from a different perspective.

My counselling background also means I have extensive experience working with people from many different backgrounds and circumstances. However, coaching is different from counselling. Coaching is future-focused and centred around your goals, personal development and the changes you want to make. It isn't about diagnosing or treating mental health difficulties, but about helping you move forward.

I want our sessions to feel relaxed, friendly and collaborative. You don't need to arrive with a perfectly formed goal or a five-year plan. Sometimes the first step is simply working out what you actually want.

Whether you want to make a big change, take the next step in your career, improve your confidence, understand yourself better, or simply stop feeling stuck, I'm here to help you work out where you want to go and how you can get there.

Most importantly, this is your journey. My role is to support, encourage, and challenge you along the way, while helping you develop the confidence and tools to create a life that feels right for you.
