About me

Have you felt stuck for a long time? I'll partner with you to empower yourself to change that. Tired of overthinking it and feel that you have been going around in the same circles? Or fallen into patterns of behaviour that just don't sit right with you....let's face it, it has been a very challenging time.  Perhaps you feel lost and don't know what path to take, demotivated, overwhelmed, need to increase your confidence, or when the thing you need to overcome almost feels less daunting than staying as you are...than this is for you. 

I'll help you with the clarity and direction to help clear the fog, feel more positive, energic, connected to yourself and others.  Things can change for you too.

Not therapy, mentoring or counselling, although talking, especially talking with direction has such a therapeutic effect and will maintain good mindset as part of our overall wellness strategy to live more positively. 

I believe your wellbeing is exclusive to you, and finding your own individual balance to increase it. I am mindful we are all 'a work in progress' so this isn't about being perfect and pressuring ourselves, although moving much closer to how we would like to be, sometimes further, in another unexpected positive place and exceed your original goal.

When we feel overwhelmed it can be difficult to even know why  – let alone overcoming whatever is holding you back.  Myself and clients have found that even the smallest of effective changes can make a huge difference.  Imagine what bigger ones can then achieve....! 

What my personal professional coaching service is:

I really believe we all hold the answers ourselves, so I will work with you to unlock these by guiding, motivating, encouraging and keeping you on track, but discussing what is right for you, and what you need to get the best insights and results.

My style is very human, one that will put you at ease, non judgemental, respectful, and intuitive , whilst bringing a pragmatic with an ‘into action’ ethos.  The most important thing to me is that you feel comfortable and enjoy sessions.

How it works

A free (obviously) telephone consultation to discuss whether this is right for you or another type of support would be more appropriate.  Getting to know each other to discuss working in partnership together as this is about you.

It is extremely important to me that clients are the right ‘fit’ and this is the most suitable way forward for you.

Sessions

I will guide you to take that first step of looking at what is currently going on for you to gain further understanding and clarification of what is important to you.

You may wish to put a flexible plan in place, or even go with the flow on your own wellbeing adventure.

Reflecting and exploring how to make those necessary internal and external changes. What positivity is coming up, and what negativity is being broken down, and what you actually need to do along the way.

Through typically 6-8 confidential sessions.
Although if at any point you feel you are better suited to someone else or something else that is okay too. You are not bound in as some clients have even benefited from one or two sessions as everyone has differing needs.

50 minute session.  Every two weeks by phone or facetime.

Me

I have worked in the media industry for most of my career and also have globally recognised qualifications through the International Coaching Federation (ICF) in Professional and Wellness Coaching.

People, whether professionally or personally, would often approach me to ‘talk things through’ and then tell me they felt better and ‘clearer’. So coaching found me rather than me finding it!.  I realised it’s the individuality of people that really interests me, and making a difference in this way is where my heart is. I moved solo to Australia for travel and work, and have now been settled in London for 10 years. I love meeting people from all different walks of life and find coaching clients so rewarding.

I been told I have very good interpersonal skills which is important but incredibly not often always recognised with this profession, having been and on the ‘client’ side myself too…! I have also been on my own personal voyage to wellbeing over the past 10 years so really understand and identify that need to get back on track. Coaching has kept me motivated and focussed through tough times and I’ve learnt how to implement various strategies to obstacles and challenges when they arise, as you will too.

If you feel my wellbeing coaching could benefit you I'd love to hear from you to have an initial chat. 

Thank you for reading my profile.

Well wishes :)

Maria
