Coaching is a positive, confidence-boosting, solution and action-based way of moving yourself forward to how, what, where and who you really want to be.

People who genuinely want to make changes, become unstuck, take control and improve themselves and their life.  It is helpful for anyone who is ready to take their own responsibility for their future, irrespective of age, gender, status, background or present situation.

If you love reading, are disciplined and motivated at all times needing little personal encouragement or support, you will be able to go some way to help yourself.  However, working with a coach is empowering, enlightening, supportive and is a more effective use of time in the long run.

This could be one of the most important decisions of your life! My experience and professional training enables you to investigate, explore positively and understand yourself in a new light, without fear and with the greatest support so that you move forward at a pace that is right for you.

My role is to truly listen to what you are saying within the confidential safety of our professional coaching relationship.  I concentrate on your agenda at all times, without judgement or criticism and guide you towards making the best decisions for yourself in accordance with what really matters to you.  I help you to make connections, recognise and identify what you feel is your best way forward, and support you while you gain the confidence to put your plans into action.  No self-help book can provide all this for you on such a personal level.

Friends and family believe they know you really well.  This may be far from the truth!  They bring their own issues and agendas to any discussion.  Some will actively discourage any of your possible changes because they feel (even subconsciously) that their own comfort zone is being challenged.  Your personal confidence and motivation is very fragile at such times.  I can help you not only to understand and manage your own feelings, but also to provide support as you enable others to know and accept the real you.

Together, communicating by phone, internet webcam or face-to-face meeting, we discover what it is you really want or need to change.  We look at and prioritise all the issues.

We discuss the reality of your present situation, and explore all your options (some of which you may not have thought were possible). We work out an achievable plan of steps towards your self-identified goals. As you put those plans into action, I continue to support as needed being careful to keep your holistic welfare in mind wherever your journey takes you.

The length of time you take to make your changes depends on your circumstances, your present health, and how quickly or how slowly you want or need to work.  You are in charge of the process!  You and I will regularly check to see that your coaching needs are being met.  My role is to enable you to feel confident enough in your own ability to make the very best decisions for yourself now and in the future.  Some people choose to work with me for a few months, first at weekly intervals, then with a longer time between sessions.  You are always in control of how much coaching you feel you need.  It’s your coaching – you choose.

I could ask you how much is a better, happier, healthier life worth?
On that basis, working with me is great value for money.  I have a session rate and a scale of discounted charges based on 6, 8, 10, or 12 sessions.  There are flexible ways to pay according to your need and our agreement together.  Just speak to me about it.  There are always ways around a problem!
