I provide personal development, life direction and career coaching for people (from young adults to those in retirement) to empower them to make changes in their lives and be the person they want to be.
I work with lots of neurodiverse clients and have lots of experience coaching people with ADHD (it's in my family too!).
I help people figure out their goals, solutions, and what matters by providing a space for them to think, get clarity about what is important, and explore their potential.
This could be about work, relationships, dating, behaviour/mindset change, confidence, or whatever challenges life is presenting. Together, we make a realistic action plan to get you moving forward, feeling determined and positive.
Coaching can help you:
- Change your mindset and behaviour
- Understand your options and define your goals
- Seize the day, master hardships and grow your potential
- Feel empowered to make changes and choose your future
- Use your strengths and create the life and career you want
- Find meaning, purpose and a sense of wellbeing
- Be the person you want to be
Coaching transformed my own life and career, and I am passionate about its ability to transform people's thinking and actions. I love helping people to understand and use their greatest strengths to create the life and future they want.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a very experienced, award-winning coach (Harvard Institute of Coaching). I have a Ph.D. and ILM level 5 certificate in coaching and have published articles about its benefits (see my website for links). I am also a certified Imagery Coach (a coaching approach often used with elite athletes and the military to help them fully imagine and achieve their goals).
I have been coaching people - from teens to those in retirement - for 10 years both online and in person, in my garden room coaching space in Yorkshire. I am a trainer and guest lecturer in coaching and deliver coaching skills training across the UK. I am the Director of Group Coaching for the Michael Beverley Innovation Fellowship at the University of Leeds, where I support researchers through coaching to become entrepreneurs.
I have an extensive background in social work and firmly believe that coaching can have positive benefits for society and should be as accessible as possible. I coach people from lots of different professions at all levels in their organisations, from CEO's to those on the frontline.
I also coach students (from PhD to GCSE!), have lots of neurodiverse clients, and coach young people in children's homes and in the care system.
I use my training and experience to support people to make changes to their mindset, their habits, their behavior, their relationships and their careers - together we make a plan to help them evolve into the person they want to be, doing the thing they want to do.
I'm excited to work with anyone who wants to discover their potential and achieve the future life they want - whatever that looks like! If this sounds like you or someone you care about, please get in touch:
