My coaching is based on a deep understanding of psychology, philosophy and the human experience, and a real passion for helping people to make their lives better.
I am a certified Transformative Coach with experience in coaching a range of private and professional clients. I am an EMCC Accredited Coach at Senior Practitioner level. I completed my training with Animas on a course accredited by the three leading professional coaching associations (ICF, EMCC and AC). I also hold several counselling qualifications, up to Level 3 counselling skills and theory.
I have spent my life fascinated by big questions such as what it means to be a human being, how to find meaning, as well as how various aspects of the modern world can make it hard for us to find clarity and meaning in life. I have an academic background in psychology and philosophy, and have produced books, toolkits and podcasts on how to live well. I have also built and run a not-for-profit that has helped thousands of people navigate modern life to live happier, wiser and more meaningful lives.
I also have 30 years of experience in business and social change, including building and running organisations, providing strategic consultancy, and directing fundraising and communications programmes. This enables me to offer insightful mentoring, consultancy and training in a range of workplace areas, including business development, leadership, strategy, communications and fundraising.
I find this combination of academic and practical experience is a powerful tool in my coaching – enabling me to work with clients in both professional and private settings, help them gain perspective on their lives, thinking and challenges, and make lasting, positive changes.
Aside from my coaching work, I am a dad and a very keen trail runner, seeking out adventures on hills, mountains and other beautiful natural places!
