In response to the growing number of teens and young adults seeking personal and social support, I am offering Personal Growth Coaching For Youth, specifically aimed at 13-24-year-olds. This is for any young person in need of a listening ear, a cheerleader or a mentor outside of the family. This is also great for online schoolers that do not have a PSHE component in their curriculum.

Today’s youth are living in a world very different from the one we were raised in — facing new pressures alongside the timeless challenges of growing into an adult. Our lives are also exponentially busier than they were previously. We often don’t carve out the time to support our young ones when they need it most.
Coaching offers a calm, judgment-free space to talk through what’s on their mind—whether it’s school stress, friendship dynamics, or worries about the future.
I work with teens and young adults to build trust, let them be heard, explore challenges, and develop their emotional literacy.

Anxiety, mood swings, and emotional overwhelm are common—but they don’t have to be faced alone.
In coaching sessions, we explore practical strategies for managing emotions, building resilience, and understanding mental health in a way that feels approachable and empowering.
Coaching isn’t therapy — it’s pro-active support that helps people feel more in control of their mental well-being.

𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 & 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗽
Preparing for the future can be overwhelming. I help teens and young adults build confidence in practical life skills—such as writing CVs, crafting personal statements, and preparing for interviews.
Let’s make the next step feel less daunting—and more doable.

This is a really great podcast on the issue of masculinity in the modern world. As a woman, a feminist, a mother to a son, and someone who was raised and socialised with boys throughout much of my life, I have struggled with the way that masculinity and femininity have been policitised lately.
Ruth Whippman gives a compassionate and nuanced account of how we can hold men to a higher standard, without the need to crush their status in society or widen the polarity between men and women.

It has been a while since I have found the time to sit down and write. I have been busy with client work, training, family life and some personal projects. But I guess, moreover, I haven’t carved out the time - by making the choice to press pause on other things. So aptly, this piece is all about taking a pause.

One of the biggest mental health challenges in the modern world is our inability to pause. But doing so is so important for our well-being and prevention of stress-related illness.
