About Me
Hi there,
Well where do I start!.....I have a degree in Social Sciences with Social Policy which is where I first developed an interest in psychology, however, I majored in Social Policy as making the world a better place has always been important to me. I spent my career working in the public and third sector delivering a number of programmes supporting individuals with advice and guidance in relation to careers, specialising in working with adults with health concerns and disabilities, as well as completing my very comprehensive base training. Over the years I've worked with individuals, groups, employers, on both individual case management and project basis, and even thrown in some mediation. I've set up programmes, ran events, been a knowledge champion and worked on some brilliant forward thinking client focused programmes. I've been lucky enough to be selected for a Summer School with the Secretary of State and the first cohort of a fantastic Charity Management Programme in the UK as well as having the opportunity to present to ministers, although I have to say none of this compares to my biggest challenge to date which continues to be parenting my 3 children!
​
Over the years I've worked with hundreds and hundreds of struggling individuals from all walks of life and recognised some huge gaps in systems and societal norms with very little understanding of behaviour patterns, the mental and physical health connection and a general understanding of the whole person. I've been lucky enough to add Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Neurolinguistic Programming and Hypnotherapy training to my list of qualifications which along with my personal and professional knowledge and experience of behaviour, enabling me to find the right tools for the right client.
As a coach I see myself as simply the facilitator for your coaching journey. I can't give you all the answers but I will do all I can to empower you to find your own. We all go through challenges at some point in our lives but if you can find the right kind of coach to help you through them and move towards your goals, it can make those challenges so much easier to deal with.
​
Much love
