About me

Life coaching offers a preventative way for you to manage your mental health in a truly positive way, supporting your personal development and improving confidence and self-esteem.  Whether you are looking for Executive Coaching to support you with that career development and motivation, or life coaching to keep your mental wellbeing in balance contact me to find out how many ways there are to achieving your goals, and unsticking your problems. I've been supporting and developing people to reach their potential for over a decade, and can't wait to see what you can achieve.

We are all quite unique in how we see the world, the skills and resources we bring to our lives and therefore the answers we have available to us. Coaching is like a magical mystery tour uncovering talents you hadn't discovered yet, and remembering those that may have been long forgotten. To enable me to work with you for who you are, I have trained in a number of areas of coaching.

Let's take Executive Coaching first. If you are working in a leadership or management role then the greatest single investment you can make is in reflective coaching to enable you to develop your leadership potential to its maximum. Having worked as a senior leader in a strategic leadership role for many years I have a breadth of experience to draw on, if necessary. However, as your Executive Coach we will be working together on your leadership style, delivered your way.  Outcomes focused, solution driven, supporting and challenging you in equal measure.

Having initially trained as an Executive Coach, I then ventured out into NLP. Neuro Linguistic Programming and Epictetus, a Greek stoic, are not too far apart in some ways.  It is not so much the event in life that causes the harm, but the way we think and feel about that past event in the present. As a Master Practitioner and Trainer of NLP let me take you into the world of life coaching. Coaching can help you reach those goals you have, tap into your motivation, and help you to reduce those seemingly insurmountable problems into small, achievable steps.

Closely linked to the NLP is Time Line Therapy where we can work to release those negative emotions that are preventing you living life the way you want to. Let's bust those limiting decisions and beliefs that are holding you back. This blended approach to coaching using the techniques of NLP and TLT you will be amazed at the changes that are possible.

For those of you who wear your heart on your sleeve, or work on gut instinct, then MBIT coaching brings a fresh dimension where we bring your head, heart and gut into the conversation.  Milton Erickson, a famous hypnotherapist, once said that the only reason he had clients was because their conscious and their unconscious minds had fallen out of rapport. So with the full range of coaching techniques available, and hypnotherapy too, let's see what your immensely powerful unconscious mind has to say.

Our coaching walks outdoors are particularly popular, combining the benefits of fresh air, countryside and changing scenery, with the coaching conversation.  Truly taking a fresh perspective on life.  Whether you are looking to overcome anxiety, build your confidence and self esteem,  manage stress levels or work on your performance development, lets talk about how you can achieve your goals.

If you want to explore how we can work together on achieving your best self, then get in touch for our free online Meet and Match conversation.
