Coaching

Coaching provides a brilliant opportunity to get back to what really matters, and gain the clarity, energy and confidence you need to overcome challenges.

 

 

Coaching services

I offer 1-2-1 and group coaching, within and outside organisations.

For individuals

Whether you are funded by your company or paying from your own pocket, I provide you with the time and space to find more clarity and balance to your busy life. if you have an important decision to make or are facing a big transition, I am here to help.

For groups

Sometimes it works best to get people together who are facing similar challenges and work as a group to explore issues. I combine thought-provoking discussion and activities with time to reflect and learn from peers. Teams get the chance to build communication and trust, unlocking creativity and improving engagement.

For leaders

Build self-awareness, improve personal effectiveness, and lead with authenticity. I offer support, perspective and clarity so that you can get on with what you need to do, and do the best job of inspiring and enabling others.

How my coaching works

 

I combine my specialist understanding in human psychology, motivation and change to help you understand your current situation, where you would like to be, the blocks that stand in your way and how to overcome these to reach your own version of success.

 

Time for you.

It starts with listening. Proper listening - curious, objective and impartial with no hidden agenda. I listen with absolute respect - I strongly believe that people hold their own innate wisdom which, given the right opportunity and questioning can be accessed to help each of us reach our full potential.

Meeting your needs.

Coaching sessions are held over Zoom or telephone, whichever you find most comfortable and convenient. Each session lasts between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on how you prefer to work. Sessions are made available in some evenings and weekends to fit around your other commitments.

Holding you accountable.

Coaching is not just a cosy chat. You are paying me to help you get results. You will get my support and encouragement and I will be holding you to your fullest potential. I will be playful where appropriate and bold where necessary to help you see different perspectives and move forward.

Regular sessions.

Research shows that changes in behaviour take at least a few months to become a lasting habit. We will work together over the course of 3+ months (depending on your specific situation and goals) to allow time to rewire your old thought patterns and behaviour into something more positive and sustainable.

Creative problem solving.

I draw upon a large number of tools and techniques to help us work together, carefully choosing an approach to serve your needs. I enjoy using different approaches to enable you to see your situation in a new light, and hopefully have some fun along the way!

Enabling transformation.

This is transformational coaching. We don’t just talk about goals, but also about what underpins these - your values and beliefs - because this is how we will get meaningful, sustainable results. I work with clients who are ready to commit to their own development and together we will get real results.

Choosing your coach

 

Choose carefully.

Coaching is not a regulated profession and it is important to choose your coach wisely as many coaches have little or no training.
