COACHING

Unlocking the Best in People and Empowering Them to Live More Fulfilling Lives.

If you are considering coaching, you do not need to have a perfectly defined goal before our first meeting.

We will begin by exploring what you would like to achieve through coaching, what meaningful change would look like for you, and how you will recognise that our work together has been valuable.

Coaching sessions are available by appointment only. You can contact me by phone, text message, or email, or use the booking form on this page.

INDIVIDUAL COACHING

Individual coaching provides a dedicated space focused entirely on you, your goals, and your current circumstances.

I work with people who want to make changes, develop their potential, make important decisions, or move forward in their personal or professional lives.

Coaching topics may include career direction and development, entrepreneurship, decision-making, communication, self-confidence, managing challenging workplace situations, personal effectiveness, career or lifestyle transitions, and finding a healthier work-life balance.

Coaching is not exclusively for managers or business owners. It can benefit anyone who has a specific goal, a desire for change, or the motivation to develop their potential further.

TEAM COACHING

Team coaching focuses on developing the effectiveness and functioning of the team as a whole.

It helps teams make better use of their collective potential, improve communication and collaboration, clarify goals and responsibilities, identify existing strengths, and develop more effective ways of working together.

During team coaching, we may explore communication and collaboration, roles and responsibilities, shared objectives, motivation, team relationships, managing change, navigating challenging situations, and developing the team's collective potential.

My approach is based on the belief that every team already possesses valuable experience, abilities, and resources.

Together, we explore how to make better use of these strengths and build on what already works.

BUSINESS, LEADERSHIP & EXECUTIVE COACHING

Business, leadership, and executive coaching provides a dedicated space for professionals, entrepreneurs, managers, and leaders who want to develop their potential and navigate complex professional challenges.

Our work may focus on strategic thinking, business development, leadership effectiveness, decision-making, communication, managing responsibilities, navigating organisational change, or strengthening confidence in demanding professional roles.

We can also explore professional direction, personal effectiveness, relationships in the workplace, and the balance between professional responsibilities and personal life.

Whether you are developing your business, leading a team, taking on a new leadership role, or facing an important professional decision, coaching offers an opportunity to gain clarity, identify your resources, and move forward with greater confidence.

ABOUT COACHING

I see coaching as a collaborative process focused on change, development, and achieving meaningful goals.

It creates a space where you can pause, look at your current situation from a fresh perspective, clarify where you want to go, and explore practical ways to move closer to your desired outcome.

In my work, I combine extensive experience in coaching, psychotherapy, and professional supervision with systemic and solution-focused approaches.

I do not tell clients what they should do, nor do I offer universal solutions.

Instead, I help them discover their own possibilities, strengths, abilities, and resources, and develop solutions that fit their personality, circumstances, and goals.

Coaching can be valuable for professional and personal development, important decisions, career transitions, entrepreneurship, leadership, and situations where you feel that you have greater potential than you are currently using.

MY COACHING APPROACH

My work is primarily grounded in systemic and solution-focused approaches, drawing on the work of Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg, as well as Kurt Ludewig's contract-based model of systemic practice.

Rather than spending excessive time analysing why something is not working, we focus on exploring:

• What you genuinely want to achieve.

• How you will recognise that meaningful change has taken place.

• What is already working in your life or professional practice.

• Which strengths, skills, experiences, and resources you can draw upon.

• What new possibilities and opportunities are available to you.

• What specific step you can take next.

An essential part of our collaboration is establishing clear goals and a shared coaching agreement.

This ensures that coaching is not simply an interesting conversation, but a purposeful process directed towards meaningful and practical change.

WHAT CAN COACHING OFFER YOU?

Coaching can help you gain greater clarity about your goals and priorities, discover and make use of your strengths, develop self-reflection and decision-making skills, explore new ways of approaching challenges, and turn your intentions into concrete actions.

It can also help you make better use of your existing experience, develop your personal and professional potential, navigate change and challenging situations, and find a healthier balance between your professional and personal life.

The aim is not to create dependence on a coach. Quite the opposite. The purpose of coaching is to strengthen your ability to think independently, make your own decisions, draw on your personal resources, and create lasting change even after the coaching relationship has ended.

DURATION AND FREQUENCY OF COACHING

The scope of coaching is always tailored to your goals and the nature of the issues you wish to address.

Sometimes, just a few sessions focused on a specific decision or change can be beneficial. For longer-term professional or personal development, the coaching relationship may continue over a more extended period.

Individual coaching typically involves approximately 5–10 sessions, although this is not a fixed number. We regularly review together whether coaching is delivering the expected benefits and whether continuing our work together makes sense.

Coaching is available in person and online.

MY PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND IN COACHING

Coaching is not an ancillary service in my practice based on a short training course. It is grounded in comprehensive professional education and many years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, professionals, and work teams.

I completed a 500-hour comprehensive educational, training, and supervision programme in Systemic Supervision and Coaching for Helping Professionals. The programme included theoretical instruction and skills training, supervised practice in supervision and coaching, group and individual supervision, peer consultation, independent study, and final assignments.

I further expanded my education in coaching, people management, and leadership by completing an MBA in Coaching, Mentoring & Leadership. The programme comprised 40 credits, with a stated workload of 40–45 hours per credit, amounting to a total of 1,600–1,800 hours of study.

The curriculum covered, among other subjects, coaching, different coaching styles, mentoring, the development of coaching and mentoring skills, the manager as coach and mentor, the development of coaches, mentors and managers, negotiation and conflict resolution, and leadership.

I also completed further management studies, obtaining an MSc in Management and an MPA.

I integrate this professional background with my education in psychotherapy and supervision, as well as my many years of practical experience. This enables me to work not only with a client's specific goals but also to understand the individual, their relationships, professional role, and environment as an interconnected system.
