I am an experienced coach, coach supervisor and facilitator with many years experience as a senior leader within the British Civil Service. I specifically help existing and new Civil Servants to grow and develop within a unique culture. I can also help those new to the Civil Service by demystifying and providing support through the transition from private to public sector, avoiding some of the pitfalls on the way.

I have a Humanistic approach to coaching that aims to work with the whole person, not just the symptoms. Through empathy and care it places the relationship between the coach and the client at the heart and focuses on exploration and co-creation to find sustainable ways of being in the world.

We are all made up of a series of experiences and memories and when we are given time and space to explore them it is amazing what we can discover about ourselves. New ways of seeing the world, of looking at and addressing life’s challenges and transitioning through periods of change can all be realised.

My practice involves co-creating a safe space for individuals and teams to learn, to experiment, to be challenged and ultimately to grow. When was the last time you or your team spent any real time thinking about yourselves, what is important to you, what is stopping you from moving forwards, why you feel the way you do about a specific event or person? When people experience positive emotional states such as curiosity and an openness to experience, it can lead to more goal orientated behaviours and a deeper meta level of transformational learning.
