I am a friendly and sensitive life coach, providing one to one services and group workshops to people in the Bristol area. I have had a long career in healthcare, most recently working for a mental health charity, and I have a wide knowledge of local services. My own life has had its challenges and I am pleased to stand as an example showing that determination to succeed, a realistic plan and the
courage to make changes can lead to being able to live the life you want. For my one to one clients, I bring a listening, attentive ear and over an agreed number of structured conversations will help you to identify your strengths and areas for development, and then we will devise a plan of action. I don't have the answers - they are within you - but I can help you find them. I'm not able to fix everything or have an answer to every problem and I don't pretend to. I'm a coach, not a counsellor or therapist and my focus is on where you are at present and the gap between that place and the one where you want to be. I am not interested in delving into the dark secrets in your past but in helping you to build a better future. I will encourage you to set realistic goals and to put your plans into action between our sessions - yes, you will have homework! I am only willing to work with clients who are committed to investing time and effort into themselves. Without it, all we're doing is talking and avoiding making progress on the challenge, which is frustrating for both of us. If you can bring an honest desire to change, you can move on to better things. I offer a short 25 minute initial meeting to get to know each other and set out our expectations for a small cost of £10. If we are happy to proceed then we will book further 50 minute appointments to engage in practical work. Please email via the button at the top of this page to make an appointment. I can offer workshops to groups of interested individuals or to organisations for a competitive price on a variety of subjects to improve wellbeing and self development. If there's a particular subject you'd be interested in learning about, please send me an email via the button at the top of this page. My workshops are limited to a small number of participants, keeping them informal, friendly and having plenty of time to ask questions. I look forward to meeting you soon!
