The power of assertiveness
- Zoom
- In Person
- Mobile
Do you ever struggle to:
- speak up when you have something to say?
- express your needs, feelings or opinions?
- say ‘no’ to demands on your time or requests that give you that sinking feeling?
- handle criticism with confidence and maintain your self-esteem?
- deal with manipulative and other difficult behaviours?
How can assertiveness coaching make a difference?
Assertiveness is a powerful way of behaving and communicating based in equality and respect for yourself and for others. 1-2-1 assertiveness coaching will provide the skills, strategies and practice, as if you were in a real life situation, to enable you to speak up for yourself and communicate confidently in a wide range of circumstances that currently feel a challenge.
How do we work together?
Our assertiveness coaching sessions provide a confidential space for you to talk about difficulties and develop skills and strategies to manage them effectively.
I coach remotely on Zoom so that you can access coaching easily and quickly whatever your location.

Testimonials
“You have changed my life. Quite literally. Thanks to you, I understand the negative effects of being 'too nice' and learnt the value of being assertive. I find I surprise myself all the time, by speaking my mind, by using confident language or by enjoying situations (like presentations) that I would have agonised over and stressed about for weeks. I feel I can rationalise my fears now, and I practise at being assertive all the time and remind myself of my talents.”
"Lucy's coaching has given me a language of assertiveness which has helped me to speak up and feel confident in my own voice. Her support and empathy as a personal coach have been invaluable."
"You showed me the way forward, Lucy. Thanks to your one-to-one sessions I have now a constructive, confident and kind approach to potential conflicts. My newly acquired skills in assertiveness have simplified and improved my life in a big way. I am very happy with the results and so is my husband now that we have the communication tools we needed to work on our relationship to our mutual satisfaction. I am very grateful. Thank you".
