Profile

My Approach & How I Help People:

I help clients to eradicate imposter syndrome, workaholism, stress, burnout, ineffectiveness, disengagement & unhappiness, so that people SHINE and bring the best version of themselves to work and life.

 

I’m passionate about helping people to be brilliant because I think fundamentally, we all can be. I do this by working with clients to dream big; clear obstacles; refocus on what’s important; enhance skills, talent and personal effectiveness.

 

I would describe my style as being supportive and challenging, (good cop / bad cop) tenacious, (I love to see my clients get results), practical, passionate and fun. Wherever possible I use techniques, such as Havening or EFT which speeds up the process and delivers deep, transformational change for the client, without much effort on their part!
