1-on-1 Coaching

Individual coaching is for you if…

You need flexibility and find that group programs often clash with your schedule.

You want to steer the pace of your coaching and how frequently we meet.

You want to work on a personal or intimate topic which feels more comfortable in a 1-on-1 setting.

You need to get clear on your questions, goals or dilemmas before you begin.

You enjoy a setting where you can focus purely on yourself.

During individual coaching, we’ll collaboratively determine the blend of approaches that supports your coaching goals and aligns well with your needs and preferences.

Your coaching sessions will take place online, using Zoom. This gives us the flexibility to fit around your work, life and location. You can engage in your coaching in a space where you feel at ease.

Your Coaching Process

Focus. Work pressure, caring responsibilities, and deeply engrained shoulds and musts can keep you from connecting more deeply with yourself. Coaching creates a dedicated reflective space to focus on yourself: get curious about why you do what you do and whether it still serves you.

Wish. We’ll discuss the intentions you’re bringing to your coaching and capture specific goals.

Experiment. Creative and reflective processes evoke curiosity. Paying attention to the mind-body connection is another source of knowing. Experimenting with new ideas and possibilities in this way can be thought-provoking if you typically operate in a more logic-oriented and outcome-driven setting.

Trust. You’ll experience a supportive and non-judgmental coaching relationship, especially as we steer through the messy middle of change and transition. I’ll also share tailored techniques and research-led approaches and am your sounding board in our sessions and via email coaching.

Integrate. Summarising and synthesising what you have learned will create a bridge between the reality of your life and the refreshed vision. You’ll have clarity and impetus to turn your insights into a meaningful reality.

Practice. Over the course of your coaching, you’ll have the opportunity to develop a personal reflective practice that is sustainable, supportive and expands your self-knowledge.

Kind words

  • "The Map of Meaning was a strong complement to the creative processes and homework invitations. It was also a very effective method for the particular issue I brought to the process in that it gave structure to what might otherwise have been an unfocused and 'muddy' trawl through issues. I think the map process would have been useful in any circumstance, but your facilitation, the quality of your listening and reflecting amplified the benefit for me."
