Why Work with Me?
Work plays a huge role in life – on average, we spend over 100,000 hours at work. Yet many people spend more time choosing a house or car than reflecting on their career direction.
If you are:
considering a career change or transition
preparing for an important interview or promotion
looking to develop leadership skills as an executive
struggling with stress, burnout, or confidence at work …I can help.
My coaching is tailored, practical, and evidence-based. I use a blend of one-to-one coaching, career counselling, psychometric assessments, and tools such as the Highlands Ability Battery and personality questionnaires to give you a clear picture of your strengths and career options.
As a Cognitive-Behavioural Hypnotherapist, I also offer proven strategies to manage interview nerves, presentation anxiety, insomnia, and workplace stress – enabling you to perform at your best.
Coaching for Organisations
Alongside individual coaching, I work with organisations across the UK to provide:
