​​Coaching is about taking time to think, with the collaboration and purposeful attention of a coach. To quieten the noise, so that whatever you're experiencing and whatever challenges you're facing, you come to see things from different perspectives. New thoughts, feelings and ideas surface helping you take steps and make decisions with greater clarity and confidence.

There's a lot of coaches out there so I'm here to tell you a bit about the experience I bring and how I coach, so you can decide whether coaching is something you're interested in and whether I might be the right coach for you. ​

My coaching is usually done online so I welcome enquiries from wherever in the UK or the world you are.

​You might be clear that coaching is what you're looking for or maybe at the moment you're just curious. You may have a particular issue you want to look at and find a way forward with. Or perhaps it's not clear, you just know that things feel difficult, you want something to change but you're not sure what or how. This is quite natural. Our lives are complex, like lots of strands woven together. No wonder it's not always clear where the tangle is. If that's what you're experiencing we can sift through what's going on for you and you decide where you want to start. That focus may change as time goes on.
Curious? Interested? Contact me to arrange a free 30 minute call.

I work with both 'personal' and 'work-related issues' although in reality they are rarely neatly separate. We navigate that through you identifying where you want the focus to be. You may have a clear idea of where you want the focus to be. You might not. Whichever it is I'd invite you to take a look at all the pages here. Every coaching session is tailored to you.
​
You'll find many references to 'thinking' here. You'll also see the 'issue' or 'problem'. My approach to coaching is holistic so the body and nervous system can also be a potential rich seam of information. In a complex and 'noisy' world, our connection with our bodies and what they're telling us is increasingly difficult to tune into. And yet, the body is often for example where the impact of stress is most visible. And then there's that 'gut feeling' telling us something.
At the heart of my practice is an understanding that I'm coaching you, not the issues.

I welcome enquiries from you if you feel your positioning in society has contributed to your voice being marginalized or silenced.
I welcome enquiries from you if you are neurodivergent.
I won't assume I know what your experience is. What you bring of your experience is up to you.

Many moons ago I studied English and European Literature and for as long as I remember I have loved the telling and exploring of stories. We live amongst our 'stories' - our life story, our work story, the stories we tell ourself, the stories others tell about us. I see coaching as collaborating with you so you can be the writer, and editor, of your story.
