As a certified coach and qualified mediator with over 30 years of professional experience supporting individuals and teams through growth, mentoring, change and conflict resolution.
I believe that whether we’re navigating challenges at work, in relationships, or within ourselves, having the right space and support makes all the difference. My role is to create that safe, impartial, and empowering environment. I combine structured techniques with empathy and understanding, drawing on decades of experience to help clients reach clarity, confidence, and resolution.
I’m an experienced and qualified coach and mediator, with over 30 years of professional experience working with individuals, teams, and organisations. Throughout my career I have supported a wide range of people, from employees and HR professionals to senior leaders and community groups. Each client brings their own challenges, goals, and experiences, and I aim to create a calm, supportive environment where meaningful change can begin.
My coaching and mentoring approach blends thoughtful guidance with practical tools. I help clients gain clarity, build confidence, and develop strategies that allow them to move forward with purpose. Whether you are navigating a career decision, managing workplace challenges, or seeking personal growth, coaching offers a structured space to reflect, explore options, and take positive steps forward.
I offer flexible coaching packages, ranging from focused short term sessions to longer three month programmes. Sessions can take place in person, online, or through Walk and Talk coaching in nature, allowing you to choose the environment that feels most comfortable and productive.
Clients often describe my style as calm, approachable, and solution focused. Having worked with people at every level, from staff members to senior leaders, I understand the pressures that can arise both personally and professionally, and I am passionate about helping people find clarity and direction. Alongside coaching, I am also an accredited mediator and an Associate Member of the Civil Mediation Council. My mediation work focuses on helping individuals and organisations resolve conflict, rebuild trust, and reach constructive agreements without the need for lengthy legal processes. You can learn more about my mediation services on my dedicated mediation website.
If you feel uncertain about your career direction or sense something needs to change, coaching can help you step back and gain clarity. With over 2 years of recruitment experience, I understand what employers look for and the realities of the job market. Together we explore what matters most to you, identify what may be holding you back, and create a practical path forward. The aim is to align your work with your values, strengths and long term goals so your career feels purposeful and sustainable.
Leadership begins with self awareness. With over 20 years of leadership experience, I understand the challenges and opportunities that come with guiding others. Coaching helps strengthen your communication, decision making and ability to lead with confidence and clarity. Whether stepping into a new role or managing complex workplace dynamics, leadership coaching supports you in developing a leadership style that feels authentic and effective.
Conflict can feel uncomfortable, but it often creates opportunities for growth and understanding. As a qualified mediator, I support people in navigating difficult conversations with clarity and respect. Coaching helps you approach challenging situations with greater confidence and emotional awareness while developing practical strategies for communication, boundaries and perspective.
Have you ever found yourself in a situation where things slowly became more complicated than they needed to be? Perhaps a challenge that was ignored for too long grew into something far bigger than expected. You may even have found yourself wondering, how did things end up here?
I have seen this happen many times, both personally and professionally. Often the real issue is not the situation itself, but the way we think about it, respond to it, or avoid addressing it altogether. With the right space to reflect, many challenges become clearer and far more manageable.
My decision to train as a coach grew from a strong sense of fairness and a genuine desire to help people feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward. Coaching creates the opportunity to pause, gain perspective, and explore new ways of thinking that open the door to meaningful change.
I believe that people are at the heart of every successful organisation and every fulfilling life. When individuals are given the space to reflect, develop self awareness, and strengthen their thinking, they gain the clarity and confidence to make better decisions and move forward with purpose.
