My coaching services

Summary of my services

I am a mindfulness-based life coach with 22 years’ experience in coaching people on a personal, individual basis, both in the UK and internationally. I also have wide business coaching expertise. My life coaching includes:

  • personal development

  • improving relationships

  • career coaching

  • creating a better impact and influence on others

  • raising self-esteem and self-confidence

  • designing your personal mission and life purpose

  • starting and building a business, developing leadership skills, enhancing emotional intelligence

  • coaching for results


My approach

I have a very practical and focused approach and I seek to help you develop your ideas as to the way forward both by skilful and insightful questions but also from my own knowledge and experience. I have a focus on facilitating personal responsibility and choice, and one particular strength of mine is to help you find where your real growing edge lies that when effectively leveraged brings about the growth and success you need.

Mindfulness coaching

Where relevant I can also use a mindfulness approach, especially where people feel under pressure and where a mindfulness approach can help achieve greater calmness, clarity, focus, and confidence and make better choices. Mindfulness helps you become more skilled at stepping back from what is going on, become more centred in who you are, use mindful awareness to see what’s really happening, if necessary to let go of what’s not working, be more in-the-moment, develop clarity, focus, choice and new directions, become more resilient, and also relate better with others.

How I work

I coach people by phone and online, internationally as well as UK, and also face-to-face if you can come to where I am based in Wiltshire.

I offer a free initial 40 minute consultation by phone to explore what you want from coaching and how I might help, and I then work with you to develop a customised, targeted package and we agree fees appropriate to the needs that have been identified.

How I came to do what I do

With a BA (2:1) and Post-Graduate Certificate in Education from Oxford University, my previous background had been in education to senior level. After a divorce and also the premature death of my mother from breast cancer, I decided to change my life, went on a series of personal development programmes, studied developmental psychologies and changed my career.

I then went on to build a practice coaching people personally and in business and developed a very active consultancy in the field of personal and professional development. I facilitated a wide variety of workshops in the "soft skills" of emotional intelligence and balanced this with one-to-one coaching. I now however focus on coaching and leading retreat programmes
