About

PERSONAL COACH (ICF ACCREDITED), MBACP, DIPLOMA IN COUNSELLING, PGCE, CTA (E)

I am passionate about helping people unlock their full potential—whether through coaching, therapy, or workshops designed to inspire confidence and connection.

With decades of experience in people development, I offer a unique blend of expertise in education, coaching, and therapy. Initially a modern linguist in the education sector, I also spent over ten years creating and delivering Esteem Workshops in schools. I have been dedicated to equipping teenagers and professionals with life skills in building self-esteem, managing emotions, cultivating healthy relationships, and navigating life transitions.

In my free time I enjoy Pilates, playing tennis and padel, travelling, interior design and walking in the beautiful Cotswold countryside. I am also a school governor with specific responsibility for RE and well-being, and I have volunteered as a youth worker for most of my adult life in my local church. Always up for a new challenge, I am currently learning Russian.

My specialist training includes

  • Supporting clients in gently understanding and healing from past trauma, using compassionate, evidence-informed approaches.

  • Helping individuals navigate the complex emotions of loss with empathy, presence, and personalised support.

  • Working sensitively with disordered eating patterns to rebuild a healthy relationship with food, body, and self.

  • Guiding clients to reframe unhelpful thoughts and behaviours through practical, structured CBT techniques.

  • Using TA to explore communication patterns and deepen self-awareness for lasting personal growth.

  • Teaching clients how to harness the body’s wisdom to enhance resilience, presence, and performance.

  • Applying NLP tools to shift limiting beliefs and support confident, goal-oriented change.

  • Offering insights through the TIFF profiling tool to help clients understand and optimise their thinking styles.
