Coaching for Career, Performance and Wellbeing
I specialise in coaching professionals who are navigating health challenges such as chronic illness or burnout, and who want to optimise their wellbeing and performance. This might mean making lifestyle changes, adjusting your approach to work, or improving how you communicate your needs.
I also work with anyone contemplating career change in the context of difficulties with their physical or mental health. I have a particular interest in coaching healthcare professionals and small business owners in the wellness sector. With experience as a senior NHS clinician and of running my own private practice, I fully understand the personal and professional demands of this work and the importance of attending to your own wellbeing.
My coaching approach is informed by many years working as a Chartered Psychologist in multidisciplinary healthcare settings, with people with a range of long-term physical health conditions. I am a certified Career and Performance Coach, and in the process of completing an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Coaching.

My Coaching approach
Coaching provides a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space to explore an area of life where you would like to make change. It is a collaborative partnership where the coach uses active listening, reflective questioning and other techniques to clarify your values, goals, and strengths. A coach does not necessarily give advice, but helps guide you to your own insights and solutions. The aim is to build awareness of the direction you would like to move in and identify what might get in the way, so that you feel empowered to take meaningful action.
AAs a Chartered Clinical Psychologist, my coaching approach is grounded in evidence-based psychological theory of how we as humans think, feel, and behave. The field of Coaching Psychology has grown rapidly in recent years, with coaching approaches evolving from well-establish talking therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). In coaching, these models are used to help optimise performance and wellbeing, rather than to alleviate emotional distress.
I use Cognitive Behavioural Coaching (CBC), Acceptance and Commitment Coaching (ACC), as well as mindfulness, somatic and visualisation techniques.
