Personal Life coaching
Life has a way of throwing obstacles - and opportunities - at us and sometimes it's difficult to tell one from the other. I love helping my clients work through how to hurdle the things that are getting in their way in order to grab the positive future they want.
​
As a Personal Life Coach, I’m aware that people bring their whole selves to my sessions. Although they might contact me with a specific area that needs development or clarity, as a coach my skills allow me to identify if it’s necessary to consider wider elements of their life too. Perhaps their work life, relationships or even their current health.
​
Using Performance Coaching and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) skills, I can help you pinpoint exactly what you want to achieve, and guide and support you as you move towards your goal. As a coach I’m not here to tell you what to do, my skills allow me to listen to you and identify exactly the right approach to help you find the answer you need. Once you’ve identified that, our sessions guide and support you towards your goals. Helping you to achieve the change you’re seeking.
​
My coaching style is relaxed and friendly and no two session plans are the same. I tailor my approach to you and your specific situation. As a personal life coach, I know the importance of treating everyone as an individual.

Utilise A Personal Life Coach
It's often the case that I hear from people who know that they need some type of change to their current way of life but have no idea what. My ‘Life MOT’s’ allow me to use my coaching skills to consider all areas of your life and identify where the improvement opportunities are. I’ve seen people achieve great results from this initial lack of clarity in their life, and it’s always a privilege to help these people build the confidence to achieve the change they’ve identified.
​
In order to achieve maximum success, I like to work with a client in bundles of three sessions. This allows us to break a larger change into small goals so that change can be experienced as soon as possible.

ME/CFS Recovery
You don't have to do this alone.
As an ME/CFS Wellness Coach I’m often asked whether it’s possible to fully recover from Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (also known as ME/CFS). The honest answer is that complete recovery appears to be elusive for some who have this diagnosis. But I know from my own personal experience that it is possible - I consider myself to have been fully recovered for over three years now. And although it took time - several years in fact - to get to this stage I always remained hopeful that recovery was within my grasp.
I’m always careful to explain to people who contact me that full recovery could take a long time to achieve. After all, rebuilding an immune system and tackling a variety of symptoms isn’t going to happen within days. But what I do see time and time again is that people can very quickly start to see some improvement to their symptoms and are then able to cope better with them. An illness like ME/CFS is a very challenging one to overcome, largely because what helps one person won’t necessarily help another. But with my help, we plan and tackle the areas that are often most helpful first, and then focus on other areas to explore and try.
​
ME/CFS Recovery Plan
I've developed two frameworks that guide you through the fundamental physical and mindset adjustments that will get you to a place where you are coping better with your symptoms today, and feeling more hopeful of recovery. Once we've created that firmer base on which to build, we continue to work together to build your personalised life rescue plan and move towards achieving real improvements.
​
I don't ask or expect clients to commit to lengthy programmes of sessions - we often pause after only three or four, and then pick up again a few weeks or months later to work through the next stage. This gives you the reassurance that I'm here to guide you at the pace that works best for you.
​
In the past year or two, I’ve seen an increase in the number of success stories that are being shared publicly, which is great. It shows people that life with ME/Chronic Fatigue isn’t necessarily the long term sentence that they fear, and that even if a full recovery isn’t possible, a partial recovery appears to be achieved by many.
​
Tackling your own ME/CFS recovery can be an isolated and bewildering experience - but I can help. I offer face to face sessions in Bristol, or by webcam if you live further afield or have difficulty travelling. Thanks to this technology I'm able to help clients across the UK, and overseas.
Please contact me if you would like to discuss this in more detail - you can call or email - or click here to book a convenient time for me to give you a call.
