I am an ICF accredited Professional Coach and qualified Cognitive Hypnotherapist. I have been coaching for over 10 years and use a wide range of approaches to help you create the change you want in your life. I have worked in Harley Street London and at the Body Holiday wellness resort in St Lucia as the life coach and therapist.
It was in my previous career as a town planner and regeneration and business development consultant that I realised how much I loved deeply connecting to people and helping them both achieve their potential and access their hidden strengths. Whether I was supporting entrepreneurs to access learning or funding, setting up and developing new teams, or interviewing single parents that had overcome adversity, the common theme was how much I love engaging deeply and supporting people one to one..
From here I began my journey into coaching and therapeutic change work. As an experienced coach I draw on my extensive training and knowledge in Pure Coaching, Positive Psychology, Humanistic Psychology, Jungian Archetypes, Neuroscience, Transactional Analysis, Human Givens, Cognitive Hypnotherapy, NLP and the Inside Out understanding (aka the 3 Principles).
My qualification and certifications include:
- Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coach Federation (ICF)
- Coaching Diploma (125 hours) (Optimus Training Academy), accredited by the ICF
- Licensed Firework Firework Career Coach
- Facilitate This! practitioner
- Certified Culture Talk Jungian Archetype Personality Profiler
- Certified Clarity Coach (trained by Jamie Smart)
- Diploma in Cognitive Hypnotherapy (Quest Institute, trained by Trevor Silvester)
- NLP Master Practitioner (trained by Andy Barton)
- Innate Wellbeing Facilitator (trained by Rudi Kennard and Jenny Anderson)
- iHEART Facilitator (trained by Terry Rubenstein and Jon Scott)
I see myself as a reflective and evocative coach that offers a safe and inclusive container for clients to explore what matters most to them. Through presence, deep connection, and embodied leadership I create a powerful space for my clients to ascend to their full potential. Through my wholehearted commitment to my clients, I seek to inspire greatness and draw out genius.
What is it like working with me?
- I bring presence, connection, wisdom and peace to our conversations, my state of being evoking a sense of calm, quietness and space for clarity of thought
- I create a safe container for you, to be listened to like you have never been listened to before.
- I meet you where you are at, I honour your uniqueness, I respect who you are in the fabric of your being
- I will celebrate you, challenge you, provoke you all in service of bringing out the best in you.
- I will be endlessly fascinated by how you think, act and feel the way you do. I am in your corner, I am on your team.
- I will invite you to step outside of your comfort zone, to be daring, to be bold, to no longer fear your shadows.
- I will be unerring in my belief in you.
- I will bring love, respect, humour, joy, artistry and magic to our coaching relationship.
- Thorough pure coaching conversations, visioning, visualisation, journaling and stories our work together will create the foundations for your success.
My dominant archetypal energies are Explorer, which drives my curiosity and presence, Magician, which guides my intuitive and imaginative side and Hero which focuses me on fearless action and being resilient – these all shape how I coach and how I seek to bring out the best in my clients.
Corporate
I run a variety of workshops and trainings for businesses and organisations that cover:
- Resilience and wellbeing
- Productivity and being your best
- Personal mastery
- Communications and relationships
- Coaching skills
I can design bespoke programmes that include one-to-one and group coaching to meet your needs. I also facilitate workshops and team development days.
I also offer support to organisations on a longer-term basis as an associate coach. Coaching for teams, managers and leaders is increasingly acknowledged as generating a significant ROI and key to creating healthy high performance cultures.
I am also a certified partner of Culture Talk, a brilliant personality testing system based on 12 human archetypes. It is a fantastic tool for team development and I use the tool with all my one to one coaching clients. As a tool I find it much more insightful as well as enjoyable to work with than DISC, MBTI, etc. You can find out more here:
