I believe the way we think, feel and act is shaped not only by our thoughts, but also by our bodies, influencing how we show up in the world and how we’re perceived by others. Using my evidence-based approach drawing on neuroscience and psychology, I help my clients make that vital brain/body connection, coaching them to reconnect with their values and what brings them meaning, build their emotional intelligence and mental fitness so they can thrive through ambiguity and respond effectively whatever the challenge.I have over 20 years’ experience in the corporate world, working globally and at senior levels within finance, media and professional services. This experience gave me first-hand understanding of the pressures of corporate life. I know how tough it can be to maintain a healthy lifestyle and work-life balance, whilst holding down a demanding career, and seeking to grow professionally.My leadership experience gave me years of practice coaching team members before I formally trained as a coach with CTI (Co-Active Training Institute) in 2016. I am now a Professional Certified Coach with the ICF (International Coaching Federation), with 1500+ hours of coaching experience, and have a speciality in working with neurodiverse clients.The thing I hear most from my clients is that I make them feel safe and that I don't judge them. I listen deeply, from a place of presence and compassion. My academic background in psychology facilitates my evidence-based approach using techniques and insights drawn from neuroscience, positive psychology and mindfulness. I specialise in self-empowerment, helping my clients build greater understanding and better relationships with themselves (because increased self-awareness leads to increased choice) and others, through:• Identifying and overcoming self-sabotaging patterns• Building flexibility and resilience in thought and behaviour• Creating the work-life balance that works for them• Building self-confidence and overcoming imposter syndrome• Learning to live with grief and loss• Sleep, rest and energy management• Creating appropriate boundaries and prioritising self-care• Managing stress, anxiety and burnout• Improving communication and listening skills• Identifying values and using them to build a life of purpose and meaningI also create and run workshops for organisational clients on wellbeing, self-awareness and personal growth. I am committed to ongoing personal and professional development and am currently in training as an Integrative talking therapist, and in Somatic Experiencing.
