WELCOME TO MORE ABOUT ME

From owning two businesses in Asia, hitchhiking across Morocco at 17, and motorbiking down the Rift Valley, I’ve always had a pioneering spirit, and a love for exploring the world.

I grew up loving literature, theatre and the arts.

Twenty years ago I sat on a bench in Hyde Park, looking out over the lake pondering life.

I had earnt two Masters’ degrees, set up businesses, travelled the world, and I was writing about art.

On the outside I was successful.

Yet I felt unaligned

The week before I had come across an ad that read Be Who You Want to Be. This had taken me to a small life coaching seminar at the back of Oxford street.

The year was 2006 and I had no idea what Life Coaching was at that time.

But this seminar sparked something in me

As I sat there looking out over the lake, I realised wanted to live an INSPIRED life.

But not that was inspired by someone else...

I wanted to be an inspiration to myself

Twenty years later, here we are. I am, a Life Coach, NLP Master and EMDR Therapist and the founder of the ICF-accredited Certification in Life Coaching and NLP.

For the past twenty years I have been helping people create authentic lives, face challenges, and confront their darkest demons.

I've worked with high-achievers, senior leaders and successful creatives.

I have helped women flee domestic violence, run workshops in Thailand and India, and helped thousands of clients change their lives.

Most of my work comes from referrals and relationships built on trust.

After twenty years and thousands of clinical hours, I have developed a deep understanding of the psychological and emotional complexity of this work.

EMDR asks what still hurts - and heals from the inside out.

Life Coaching with NLP asks, how do I want to live life and face challenges - and helps you create a life that makes you proud.

The Certification Programme in Life Coaching and NLP allows you to set up an independent life helping others.
