About Coaching

In its simplest form, coaching is a really productive and useful conversation. Coaching can help you to improve your life and various situations in a multitude of ways. Helping you to identify and achieve goals or supporting you through a particularly challenging and complex scenario. It enables you to find some space to reflect and gain some perspective.

Through coaching you will learn new ways of thinking and be able to adopt a new approach to a situation. You will be able to get results, which might mean that you feel better and reach some peace of mind. It could be that you have certain goals, you will be able to focus on those better or be more organised and effective at work or in your home life. You can gain confidence in certain situations, or perhaps simply relate to other people more effectively.

How does coaching work?

A combination of observation, questioning, listening and feedback will be used to create a conversation rich in insight and learning. As a result you will experience a focus and attention that enables you to develop greater awareness and appreciation of your own circumstances. This will empower you to create new ways to resolve issues, produce better results and generally achieve goals more easily.

Group or Team Coaching can also be used as a wonderful way to share knowledge, experience and insights. This is useful when everyone has a common goal or particular challenge or theme.

Coaching for Parents

Make life work for you with one-to-one or Group Coaching

Parenting can be tough. Balancing family life and professional demands alongside your own personal needs can be challenging. With coaching you can create balance and discover ways to support yourself and enhance family life. If you are struggling through a particularly stressful or difficult time, are feeling overwhelmed and need a space to reflect on what is important to you coaching can be hugely helpful. Creating shifts literally from the first session. 

Regardless of the challenges you are facing, coaching will enable you to look at your options, reset your thinking and find practical steps to move forward. You will be able to improve your wellbeing and positively change habits, patterns of behaviour or beliefs that no longer work for you. 

Group coaching for parents who share a common theme or challenge can also be very beneficial. Working in a group is a powerful way to surround yourself with healthy, safe peer support. The group are able to offer a different perspective or focus of you and everyone can learn and grow from each-others experience, knowledge, insights and ideas.

Youth Coaching - teens & young adults

Finding the confidence to reach your full potential 

Life coaching for young people can be a useful solution when they are experiencing difficulties. Youth coaching will encourage personal development as well as provide a channel for anxiety and stress. Managing stress and overwhelm during this time of growth and learning is one of the biggest challenges for both parent and child. The session will allow for setting and achieving goals, discussing difficult issues and discovering what is most important to them. It is very helpful if you want your child to receive support but you are not the right person to give it to them.  Topics are identified that may include school, or college and family life, friends, relationships or anything else that happens to be causing an emotional impact or on their mind.

Coaching develops a solutions based mindset where frustrations and worries can be aired in a non-judgemental safe space that will help to bring about greater awareness and positive change. 

Group coaching can also be very beneficial for young adults who all share a common goal, this could be managing anxiety and stress, boosting confidence and self esteem or other common themes. Please go to Group Coaching.
