What I can help you to achieve

• Extracting the information and evidence on what is happening for you and around you

This includes gathering facts and digging deeper underneath the surface within yourself as well as observing what is happening around you - to identify what the real problems you are struggling with are. I will work with you to ask yourself investigate questions and how to observe and understand what is happening with yourself and around you in a safe and non-judgemental manner.

• Expressing your problems, thoughts, feelings and ideas

Depending on what works best for you, this can be through structured lists, worksheets/templates, visuals and art, writing and journalling, other experimental forms of expression (e.g. even cooking!) or simply talking it out. I will work with you to find ways you can express your authentic self that is unique to you.

• Evaluating your options

After we uncover and identify the real issues you are struggling with, I will provide you with frameworks and strategies to research and explore options for solutions that are unique to your specific problems and needs. I will work with you as your brainstorming partner to look a different possibilities and empower you to design your own unique pathway. 

• Executing your next steps

I can support you as your accountablity partner as well as to keep reviewing and continuously improve on the next steps that you choose to take. Whether it's life or career or business, it's a never ending journey of self-discovery, course correction and renewal. We can work together to keep reviewing and re-designing your path as relevant.

I am empathetic and seek to facilitate a safe space where individuals can open up in a way that is most comfortable and authentic to them. I aim to be non-judgemental and yet firm in my advice and guidance where needed.

I utilise frameworks and tools such as worksheets or draw up visual diagrams on a virtual whiteboard as relevant to help provide a more structured and yet still flexible approach. I have a broad toolkit which I draw freely from and tailor different concepts to help individuals understand what they are experiencing and explore options to solutions. 

Being a human centred designer by profession, I design the coaching experience for each client as relevant to meet their unique circumstances.

I understand that evidence has shown that positive outcomes for therapeutic services (or similar - e.g. coaching) is highly linked to the rapport that both parties have. I am open to feedback from clients on my coaching approach and encourage individuals to find the coach that is best able to connect with them and support their needs.

With over 15 years experience, I am a multi-disciplinary Human-Centred Design professional with a background in behavioural economics.

I have deep experience working with individuals and teams across a range of public and private sector organisations both as a consulttant as well as personally managing and leading teams and projects. This includes working closely with senior leaders, middle management and staff as a trusted adviser, on the job coach, thinking partner, workshop facilitator or training provider as relevant. I also have experience working at a major Big 4 mananagement consulting firm.

As an individual, I have also personally experienced stress, burnout and other mental health challenges at work and in my private life which I have explored and learnt different strategies to overcome. I have first-hand understanding of how a gentle, judgement free and yet firm guiding hand is often needed for times when we are struggling the most. 

I have a deep passion for helping people connect with our authentic selves, extracting and expressing what lies beneath and allowing us to work towards becoming who we truly want to be. 

I also have a strong interest and knowledge in personality profiles (e.g. MBTI, HBDI etc), attachment styles and psychology.

Know that change is possible, even if it often feels slow and long coming. Everyone of us has inside us a light that is waiting and yearning to be shone on the world. I look forward to uncovering that light together with you.
