Sheila O'neil

I support students who are feeling overwhelmed, stressed or lacking confidence to feel more in control of their studies and themselves. This included students who may struggle with focus, organisation or motivation as well as those neurodiverse or experiencing anxiety.

Sessions are relaxed, supportive and tailored to the individual. We focus on practical strategies that can be used straight away, such as improving time management, creating simple routines, breaking tasks down into manageable steps and building confidence around studying and exams.

I take a flexible approach depending on what the student needs in the moment. Some sessions may focus on organisation and planning, while others may focus on mindset. The aim is always to reduce pressure, not add it, and to help students feel more capable and in control.

I have a good understanding of neurodiversity and experience of supporting clients understand their diagnosis and not let it define them and their progress.

My background is in coaching and welfare support, where I have worked with individuals experiencing a range of challenges , including stress, overwhelm and low confidence. I bring a calm, non-judgemental approach and adapt sessions to suit how each student thinks and learns.

I have varying qualifications in coaching approaches, and am a Master Practitioner in Neuro-linguistic Programming NLP. I have a range of practical tools that can help reduce stress from my coaching training such as mediation and grounding techniques. I also have a degree in English Literature.

Sessions are 1 hour, online using zoom or teams, booked using Calendly and can be arranged in person if local.
