You may choose to bring one immediate topic, such as dealing with a relationship difficulty, going for interview, handling change or stress in your life, or you may want to look broadly at your personal and working life and give it a complete MOT.

My approach as a Life Coach is partly to structure sessions (using the GROW Model) and partly to work intuitively, enabling you to learn & grow through self-discovery, creativity and reflection. Life Coaching may involve activities, discussion, questioning and goal setting with action plans to reach them, backed by continual support & encouragement to keep you moving forward. You can expect to explore new ways of thinking & achieving & become more self-reliant. At the end of each session you go away with an agreed, manageable Action Plan.

As an experienced skills trainer in assertiveness, communication and confidence building, I offer a unique opportunity to complement your life coaching with the skills you need to attain your goals.

• Assert yourself
• Be a first-class listener
• Deal with bullying, difficult people & awkward customers
• Coach & manage your staff
• Handle anger, resolve conflict
• Manage pressure, stress and time
• Impress at interviews & presentations
• Speak confidently in public
• Write succinctly and effectively

The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention (Oscar Wilde)
Assertiveness is a non-aggressive form of behaviour that encourages you to be more aware of your needs, feelings and opinions & express them appropriately while being sensitive to the needs, feelings & opinions of others. You learn a treasure trove of verbal and non-verbal skills to enable you to communicate clearly and succinctly, be able to ask and refuse, respond to criticism without getting defensive and confront difficult behaviours in others. By becoming more assertive you can have more honest, open relationships & you will find your levels of confidence and self-esteem will correspondingly grow.

Bullying is persistent verbal &/or physical behaviour where you feel personally targetted and picked on and is likely to have a profound emotional impact. The symptoms are similar to those you experience when you are stressed, such as headaches, stomach knots, sleepless nights and fatigue. As bullying takes hold you are likely to feel depressed and withdraw. In a work situations you may feel demotivated, panicky, you may make more errors than usual, feel ill and dread going to work. Your self-esteem will be hit hard.

To understand stress is the first step towards managing it. Stress comes from the old French word ‘destresse’ = ‘to be oppressed’ and means ‘the inability to cope with the demands of a situation’. By exploring the specific causes of stress, we can find strategies to prevent, reduce and manage stress levels. Where relevant this may include developing assertiveness or time management skills or working on rebuilding lost self-esteem.
