My Coaching Services

Personal Development

Helps chart your path from your current state to your desired goals. Clients identify their strengths and set meaningful objectives that align fully with their skills and values. Sessions build lasting confidence through gaining and applying insights to making actionable plans. This supports both immediate progress and ongoing growth, strengthening personal commitment and self-confidence.

Crisis Coaching

When unexpected challenges arise, having the right support is crucial. With expert direction, individuals find practical ways to address immediate concerns while building resilience and self-confidence. This approach restores calm and direction, promoting thoughtful decisions rather than reactive responses.

Targeted Coaching

Pinpoints exactly what matters most when facing specific challenges. Through purposeful dialogue, clients uncover fresh opportunities and insights they might otherwise miss. Key questions like “What would make the biggest difference right now?” guide the way toward best solutions. This focussed support transforms uncertainty into clear action, blending proven techniques with each client’s unique perspective and desires.

Problem Solving Coaching

Breaks down complex issues into manageable parts. Clients explore, root causes, values and beliefs and obstacles to swiftly moving to action. This adaptable approach combines creative thinking with process and strategic planning, helping clients gain skills that extend beyond immediate concerns, instilling lasting confidence for future problem-solving.

Restorative Coaching

Restorative coaching bridges differences and promotes shared understanding when relationships face challenges. The process begins with identifying shared goals and acknowledging unique perspectives. Guided conversations in a neutral space, help participants find common ground and practical ways forward. This approach transforms tension into productive dialogue, fostering lasting positive change through mutual understanding.

How It Works

Each session provides a dedicated space to explore what matters most. Through thoughtful dialogue, fresh perspectives emerge alongside potential solutions. Each conversation builds naturally on the last, creating momentum for moving forward.

Focus stays on what’s possible right now, drawing on proven methods to build confidence and clarity. Sessions adapt to support both personal values and decisions through practical process.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Not sure if coaching is right for you? Here are answers to some common questions that might help.

How much does coaching cost?

1 hr 30 min session costs £65.

How can I justify the cost?
Coaching is practical, process-driven, and solution-focused. It’s about working with what you already know about yourself, your skills and experience, homing in on what really matters to you and creating a plan that gets you where you want to be – efficiently and effectively. All this boosts confidence and levels of commitment which significantly increases the likelihood of success.
Is Coaching for me?
Coaching isn’t counselling, therapy, mentoring, or consultancy. It’s about empowering you to take charge of what happens next in your life. If you’re looking for someone to help you explore, motivate, support and encourage you to discover what YOU really want (and achieve it faster than going it alone), then coaching could be exactly what you need.
