Positive Psychology Coaching in Shoreditch

Transformational Coaching in Shoreditch

As a counsellor and coach I work integratively which means that rather than using one fixed method with my clients I draw from different therapeutic approaches, applied positive psychology and coaching psychology to meet and support my clients where they are. Sometimes that is making sense of the past, sometimes it is building momentum towards the future and often it can be both. My approach is warm, collaborative and evidence-informed.

I trained as a coach before becoming a counsellor. I have an MSc in Applied Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology, a PGDip in Integrative Counselling and Coaching, an MA in Screenwriting and a BA (Hons) in Film and Video Production. My therapeutic experience has been gained in private practice, non-profit and within the NHS. Prior to this career I spent years working in high-pressure environments such as the TV industry and the emergency response field, which is why I am passionate about client's wellbeing.

I work with clients in person and online. I will help you rewrite the next chapters of your story. Through therapy, positive psychology and coaching psychology you'll gain strengthened relationships with the people around you, the world you inhabit and, most importantly, with yourself.

My Story

I was introduced to the concept of coaching whilst managing a counselling service, but it would be many years before I turned to a coach for help. I remember vividly when I knew I needed coaching.

I had changed jobs and was working in a toxic environment. I was the go-to person in my professional and personal life. I had become a people pleaser, my self-confidence was very low, I was overwhelmed, and I had started suffering from stress and anxiety. I realised that I needed help so I started working with a coach. I chose to work with a coach because I needed to change my life and quickly! The coaching sessions helped me reframe my thoughts, revisit my dreams, and help me make profound decisions. Coaching helped me address what was ultimately important to me and how I could and would create change.

You may ask, “what is coaching?” In its simplest form, coaching moves you from having a desire to achieving your goal in an accelerated fashion, by developing a success mindset, taking action and being committed. As the client, you set the agenda and as your coach I facilitate the process of getting you to where you want to be.

Counselling came later. Although coaching helped me make the changes in my life that were important. I realised I used counselling to work on difficult emotions, process unresolved issues and gain a better understanding of myself. Counselling and coaching were two of the best decisions and investments I made for myself.
