Coaching
“We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.” – Mahatma Gandhi
There are different approaches to coaching I share with you here what those are before I explain how I coach.
Solution Focused Coaching
Solution-focused coaching is a more goal-oriented approach that emphasises identifying and building on an individual’s existing strengths and resources to create positive change. Instead of concentrating on problems or past failures, this method focuses on envisioning desired outcomes and developing actionable steps to achieve them through setting clear, realistic goals and generating practical strategies for progress. The process is typically brief and collaborative, encouraging clients to take ownership of their growth and maintain forward momentum.
NLP - Neuro Linguistic Programming
Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) in coaching is a method that focuses on the relationship between neurological processes, language, and behavioural patterns learned through experience. By understanding how clients process information and internalise experiences, NLP assists in enhancing motivation, overcoming limiting habits, and improving emotional regulation. NLP techniques help clients reframe negative beliefs, improve communication, and develop more effective mental strategies.
MINDSET coaching
Mindset coaching is a process that helps individuals shift their thinking patterns to achieve personal and professional goals. It begins by identifying limiting beliefs and mental blocks that may be holding a person back. Through guided reflection, goal-setting, and practical strategies, mindset coaching empowers individuals to develop confidence, resilience, and a positive outlook.
Transformational Coaching
Transformational coaching is a development process focused on deep, fundamental change in a person's beliefs, behaviours, and ways of thinking. Unlike traditional coaching, which often targets external goals or skills, transformational coaching aims to shift the internal mindset and emotional patterns that shape how individuals perceive themselves and their potential and create stronger alignment between their values and actions.
Embodiment/Somatic Coaching
Embodiment coaching is a transformative practice that emphasises the connection between mind and body to foster personal growth and self-awareness. It encourages individuals to tune into their physical sensations, movements, and bodily experiences as a pathway to understanding emotions, thoughts, and behaviours more deeply. This helps clients evolve greater presence, emotional regulation, and authenticity. This supports healing, empowerment, and holistic transformation.
Resonance coaching is a method focused on aligning an individual's core values, emotions, and actions to create a state of harmony and effectiveness in personal and professional life. It emphasises deep listening and empathetic communication to help clients connect with their authentic selves.
Trauma informed coaching
Trauma coaching is a specialised form of coaching that focuses on supporting individuals who have experienced traumatic events. Unlike therapy, which often addresses clinical mental health issues, trauma coaching emphasises personal growth, resilience, and coping strategies to help clients move forward in their lives. The goal is to empower individuals to regain control, enhance their well-being, and achieve their personal or professional goals despite past trauma. This work may incorporate techniques such as psychology, mindfulness, and emotional intelligence that help facilitate healing and transformation.
My Coaching Approach
My approach is dynamic, organic and process driven. This means that rather than come with a set way of thinking and working, I, with your consent always, tune in with where you are and then adopt any of the coaching approaches mentioned above that is timely and relevant to your situation at the time. We will work with your Life/Vital Force that is expressed through your physical, emotional, mental and energetic language. My task is to hold a soulful space for you to feel safe and free to explore all parts of yourself and learn how to powerfully influence and align your action and create your desired life. Whilst the process is very fluid, here is also plenty of structure that will give you clarity, language and time to integrate.
I invite you that when you consider working with a professional of any kind, you pay attention not just to their qualifications, fees or reputation, but to really get the feel if they are the right person for you. To find this out you can:
ask for recommendations
notice whether you are drawn to them as you study their posts, writings etc
check in with your body
interview them
The same goes for most professionals. We want to be of service to those that we can serve best. I therefore offer a free 45 minute slot for us to meet me and work out if and how we might work together.
