Individual Coaching
Giving you time to think, making you ready to act. Working with private clients, or supporting wider in-house coaching or development programmes, I help you to solve problems, and propel action, through a genuine curiosity that drives the questions which help you get to the heart of the goal or topic you want to pay attention to.
Sunrise Coaching
Helping individuals move forward with optimism and clarity when facing change. Life can throw us curve balls of different shapes and sizes, so when therapy has done its job or doesn't feel like the right fit, a safe environment to work through your options and get your game face back on could be just what you need.
At the heart of every coaching session is you. I'm here to guide you in exploring your thoughts, emotions, and the associated facts around the situation you are working through. Together, we'll navigate different perspectives, uncover options for moving forward, and provide you with the space to think, reflect, and choose your desired next steps.
Tools and Techniques
In our coaching sessions, I employ a variety of tools and techniques to help you gain clarity, insight, and direction. Here are some of the approaches I use to facilitate your personal growth and development:
Metaphorical Exploration: Metaphors are described as a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. They can be highly effective in helping you understand the thoughts and emotions connected with a situation, allowing you to delve deeper into your thoughts and understand what's really going on.
Language Playback: We'll notice the words you use and the language you employ to describe your situation. This can reveal hidden patterns, beliefs, and insights that you may not have been aware of.
Coaching Models: I utilise established coaching models to provide structure and direction to our sessions, ensuring that we cover all relevant aspects of your situation.
Neuroscience Insights: Drawing from the latest research in neuroscience, I can help you understand how your brain functions and how it impacts your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.
Cognitive Behavioural Coaching: We may use cognitive-behavioural coaching techniques to address specific issues or challenges, helping you change unproductive thought patterns and behaviours.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP): NLP techniques can be highly effective in reshaping your mindset and behaviour patterns to achieve your desired outcomes.
Personal Guidance: Where a more directional approach is appropriate, I can offer guidance based on my own experiences and knowledge to provide you with a well-rounded perspective on your situation.
Please remember that each coaching session is tailored to your unique needs and goals. I draw on the best from all of these approaches, to provide the most appropriate tools and techniques to help you achieve your desired outcomes.

Where I work
I moved to the Norfolk coast in 2021 and like nothing more than in-person beach coaching. There's something about walking that just frees up the thinking! As this isn't always viable, the majority of coaching takes place via Zoom or Teams to accommodate different time zones, as well as locations.
