I’m an accredited coach helping individuals from age 16 to build confidence, self esteem, employability skills & a growth mindset

I’m a former lawyer and recruiter and my passion to support people to uncover their best strengths and esteem led me quality as a coach about a decade ago. I offer 1:1 sessions and small group sessions which can also work although young adults typically feel safe in 1:1 where they can freely open up. I support individuals impartially and without judgment and create a safe space building trust immediately. I reside in Greater London and can offer coaching online anywhere in the country and the world. I offer 40-60 minute sessions based on the needs of the individual. As a parent of young adults under 22, and a former secondary school governor for six years, I’ve been passionate about the wellbeing and development of all young people for many years. I also supported schools for many years with career guidance for year 10s. My style is supportive, empathetic while also encouraging and stretching individuals appropriately to ensure their development and personal confidence. When working with young adults, I offer a sounding board and a safe space to be themselves without worrying what others may think. Being heard is important as is motivating young individuals to take accountability and garner insights for themselves. Where individuals feel stuck, I support them to unravel this, consider personal aims and goals whatever their ability or background. I work at a pace that is relevant for the person while also supporting actions for them to see how they can move forward. I also make observations to help them to notice what is going on for them and what they therefore wish to do in terms of new thinking or steps for change and growth and wellbeing. Coaching is to support with forward growth, unraveling the challenges and helping build self esteem so these young adults can believe in themselves and thrive in all areas of life. Parents often connect with in me to coach their young adult children while those 21 onwards also reach out for support in personal and professional development including applications, CVs, career guidance, resilience, and interview coaching.
