I’m an executive coach, coach supervisor and mindfulness teacher with a special interest in well-being. I also run accredited coach training programmes at Certificate and Diploma level in addition to mindfulness retreat days and an 8 week distance learning mindfulness course for coaches. I have run my independent coaching business for over eighteen years and whilst I would describe my approach as integrative, I draw upon neuroscience, mindfulness and compassion practices to inform my work. I also work creatively and I find that humour is never far away. In the coach supervision space I will work with you either face to face, by telephone of via skype to:-

*Provide a safe, non-judgmental space where we can pause and reflect on your practice
*Work in partnership with you to reflect deeply on your work as a coach and to heighten awareness and perspective.
*Explore together experiences of transformation and stuckness.
*Together we will shine a light on the psychological unconscious process to bring this into awareness.
*Explore non-judgmentally any ethical moments of choice for you as a coach.
*Enrich, resource and refresh you with additional tools, models and approaches where relevant to support your coaching practice and continuous professional development.

I am in regular one to one and group coach supervision with three accredited coach supervisors and one mindfulness supervisor and aim to develop my practice as best I can and I regularly attend courses, conferences and meetings with peers. I apply an ethical, compassionate and human style of supervision, all while focusing on achieving your goals with mutual collaboration.

My qualifications include being a Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (MCIPD) and Member of the Association for Coaching (MAC). I hold the Post Graduate Certificate in Coaching and Mentoring from Oxford Brookes University.

I am experienced in 1:1, group and peer supervision. This includes both F2F and Skype/phone with ongoing email support as required.

Many supervisory clients value and utilise my senior HR experience (culminating in responsibility for Group Learning and Development within a 30,000 employee organisation) to consider their clients interventions into complex political landscapes. 50% of my clients are supervisors themselves operating within the UK’s top management consultancies, financial and professional services, retail, household names and leading academic institutions. I also love working with newly qualified coaches to enrich and help them gain confidence in their practice.

Having been a trained assessor for the AC Accreditation scheme and a co-coaching facilitator means that I work at the forefront of new ideas for the development of the coaching profession which is embedded into my supervision practice.  I have helped coaches to successfully navigate the accreditation process (testimonials available).

I am passionate about the development of coaches and partnering with them to sharpen their performance edge and realise their full potential. Clients describe my style in the following terms: high energy, pragmatic, superb listener, wholly collaborative, genuine personal warmth and naturally perceptive with a manner that encourages open dialogue.  I have led my own department of 20 people with 3 team leaders so has practical experience as well as sensitivity to differing organisational cultures.

My areas of expertise include: influencing others with positive impact, managing conflict, team building, developing female managers/directors, career change and coaching to manage significant change.

CPD this year for me has included transpersonal psychology perspectives, clean language and guided imagery.
