I am a professionally qualified and accredited executive and leadership master coach, coach supervisor, trainer and consultant. I work with leaders who wants to make a positive difference. I coach from the inside out, focusing on what matters to you so you can bring out the best in yourself and in others. I work with senior executives, aspiring leaders and high potential employees in the public and private sector in facing challenges, driving performance and leading with authenticity and integrity.
About Me
In my coaching sessions I provide a safe, confidential and reflective space in which we can have the conversations that matter to you. My style is respectful, open and supportive, yet challenging and you will have the space to think, understand yourself better and generate practical outcomes.
With nearly 20 years of experience in coaching, areas of expertise include increasing confidence, developing highly skilled leaders, optimising individual and organisational impact, managing relationships, building resilience, managing conflict, time management, ‘imposter’ syndrome and work-life balance.
I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing substantial personal and organisational change or challenge. As a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor, I bring a depth of psychological knowledge and expertise to my coaching in order to gain insight and allow a deeper exploration of internal patterns of thinking, behaviours, your wellbeing and how the past might be impacting the present. You can bring your whole self to a coaching session and say it like it is for you.
I am also an accredited supervisor, providing a reflective space for individuals and groups to reflect on their experiences, practice, patient care and leadership. My supervisees are coaches, psychologists, counsellors and clinicians.
For over 25 years I was a senior leader in a broad range of business sectors. My last corporate role was a Board Director of a £1.2bn NHS organisation, culminating in being recognised nationally as a ‘Top Leader’.
I am educated to doctoral level (in research), and have a first class honours degree in management and leadership and another honours degree in psychotherapeutic counselling. I adhere to the European Mentoring & Coaching Council (EMCC) global Code of Conduct and I am an EMCC Global Assessor, accrediting coaches, supervisors and training providers around the world.
I am an independent practitioner, maintaining high standards of professionalism, confidentially and transformation. Although based in the East of England, I work across the whole of the UK and abroad. We can talk via telephone or via video, using the platform of your choice.

“Coaching is a collaborative partnership between the coach and the coachee/client in a confidential, thought-provoking and creative process, with psychological depth. It is designed to develop and enhance the coachee’s professional, relational and personal potential in the realisation of their projects and to take their rightful place in the relationship they have with themselves, others and their environment.”
