I qualified as a Personal Development Coach in 2016. Coaching is not counselling or mentoring. Coaching is a positive, forward focused support intervention which enables people to make changes and overcome challenges. As a coach I don’t give out advice or offer my personal opinion. My role is to facilitate a conversation where you are in control but where I can help you to gain clarity, focus and plan to take action and achieve what you want. 

 

I work with people who want to make positive changes to their lives, but perhaps don’t know where to start or keep putting it off. I have supported people overwhelmed by their busy lives, women in midlife and those experiencing the menopause, people wanting to change career, those struggling with retirement, people made redundant, and I regularly work with military personnel when they are leaving the Armed Forces. 

 

I have also worked in the NHS for 3-years as a Health and Wellbeing coach and supported patients with long-term health conditions, losing weight and becoming more active, menopausal women, low level anxiety, managing new diagnosis and rehabilitation after illness. 

 

I am passionate about helping people to develop and supporting them to become more confident to achieve the things they want and to thrive in life. 

I am currently in my 3rd year of a Master’s Degree in Applied Positive Psychology at Buckinghamshire New University.
