Dear All ,

2 years ago , I set a goal to develop a coaching and guidance counselling practice to work with young people and adults who are at a transition point in their careers and/or lives.
Transition Points are challenging and force us to step out of our comfort zones. Having a space to work through decisions at these times of our lives can be the difference between moving forward and staying where you are. During this time I undertook a Higher Diploma in Adult Guidance Counselling to help me me learn more about what can stop us achieving more in our lives. Yesterday, I received my Diploma and as a celebration, I want to offer a free introductory session to anyone who is at a crossroads and is considering a change in their careers/ lives.

Every action we take has an impact - forwards or backwards - taking us towards our goals or pushing them further away.
