Jane Woods

My sessions take place either online or in person outdoors, by the beach. As a blue health coach I love to be by the sea or in the sea, as do many of my clients. Coaching in nature not only supports our wellbeing but boosts our creativity and our ability to focus and problem solve. I have a licence to coach at Studland Beach, one of the most biodiverse habitats in the country and in the same way that we need biodiversity we need neurodiversity. We need people who see the world differently, people who are sensitive to the environment around them which is why my approach also explores rejection sensitivity dysphoria, justice sensitivity, demand avoidance and emotional regulation. Coaching is a little like doing a couch to 5K and you'll get out of it what you put in. Together, we will agree on a level of challenge and pace to support positive change. We will explore options together which will promote autonomy and choice and create a supportive, encouraging and non-judgemental space to help you move forward with your goals, priorities and challenges. In between sessions, there may be invitations to explore self awareness and personal development using various established tools and techniques. “Jane’s compassion and empathic style truly complimented this coaching relationship. I felt nourished after each session due to her supportive curiosity, that enabled me to reflect and respond to my own issues in a positive, successful manner. She empowered me to make the necessary changes in my behaviours, completely honouring my values and strengths”
