Sometimes we need help in stepping back and looking objectively at what lies ahead of us. The help comes from the coach asking the right questions which enables you, the client, to look at the bigger picture and work out what you want.  This can help you find the reality of the situation and come up with options and timelines that are doable and energising.

My role is to work with you, to support, challenge and manage the process. I don’t bring the answers as these are about your choices and not mine.

Career Development

Here I support you in working through issues and opportunities arising in your working life such as performance improvement and skills development.

Given my dual background in psychotherapy and business know how in the corporate world, I am able to bridge the gap that sometimes exists between performance aspirations and the ability to make behavioural change.  Is the way you engage with others holding you back from achieving success and recognition at work or in life generally?  How can you use your strengths more effectively to get the role and reward you want?

Life Decisions

Awareness brings choice and with choice comes decision making.   When I hear someone say 'I can't', I ask them to reframe that as 'I choose not to', and that normally puts a different slant on their thinking.  Equally it is easy to get swept away in the moment and not check out reality before making key life decisions.  Coaching gives you the space to explore your thoughts and feelings around key life events before making  a decision that will effect your future and that of your family.   Some key life decisions might be as follows:

Around a change in role - promotion, relocation or redundancy

Around relationship issues - marriage, divorce or having a family

Around life itself - do I want to change my current direction and find more meaning in my life?

You might want support in exploring these and other key life questions either as an individual or as a couple. This work is stretching, makes you think and requires a commitment for action. I will support you in that process and have the skills to keep the work safe and focussed.
