Debra Nash
Senior Practitioner Coach EMCC
There's a lot of coaches out there. 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.
I work with both 'personal' and 'work-related issues' although in reality they're rarely neatly separate. I'd invite you to take a look at all the pages here. Every coaching session is tailored to you.
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 maybe you just know that things feel difficult, you want something to change but you're not sure what or how.
I coach in person and online, so I welcome enquiries from wherever in the UK or the world you are.

If you're someone who wants to
work - live - love
in alignment with your values
(because I know that's not always easy)
we could be a good match.
If you want to take time to quieten the noise,
so you can examine your assumptions,
check out your reasoning,
hear yourself think
we could be a good match.
If you want to show up
for yourself - as yourself
we could be a good match.
Whatever you're experiencing and whatever challenges you're facing
through collaboration and purposeful attention,
together we'll create space for you.
So that new thoughts, feelings and ideas can surface,
helping you take steps and
make decisions
with greater clarity and confidence.
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.

As well as being an EMCC accredited Senior Practitioner:
-
I am an experienced psychotherapist so I bring psychological awareness. This helps as we work to uncover and an understanding of the significance and impact of your inner world and your relationships.
-
I have undergone extensive training and have over 20 years of experience in group dynamics and systems so I bring an awareness of the significance and impact of the group contexts you live and work in
-
I have Leadership experience so I bring an awareness of the particular challenges of leading in complex and challenging environments
-
I have Senior management experience so I bring an awareness of the particular challenges of being the 'bridge' between different groups within an organisation
-
I am committed to challenging discrimination and exclusion. I bring an awareness of how power structures work and how our position in society impacts us.
-
I have been involved in teaching and learning in one way or another for over 35 years so I bring an awareness of the importance of trust and safety in any learning relationship. I will create with you a safe and trusting environment so that you can explore and discover new ways of thinking and being.
-
I am an experienced and UKCP accredited Clinical Supervisor.
-
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.
