Hi, I’m Paula.

I am an ICF ACC Coach, EMCC Accredited Practitioner and have a MSc in Applied Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology. But beyond the qualifications, I love helping people work out what they really (really) want and design their path to get themselves there.

I create a calm, safe space where clients can take the time they need to explore whatever it is they want to focus on. 

ABOUT ME

EXPERIENCE

I am a coach, a mother, a friend, a cook, a photographer, an outdoor swimmer and many other things. I love kettlebells and choir singing, curling up with a book and hanging out with our teenage children when they allow me to.

I have a background in photography and in public and occupational health, working on healthy lifestyle promotion. 

I’ve worked in a range of areas and studied a number of disciplines, and Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology tie everything together - all of my work, from creating photo stories for magazines to devising public health campaigns around alcohol and running health events for banks and insurance companies in the City of London, has been about exploring how people live, witnessing, listening and communicating.

I also love learning. For me, coaching is a form of learning – about other people, about what works and what makes people feel the best version of themselves, from where so much is possible.

WHO I WORK WITH

I work with people who want to find or reconnect with their zest for living. Often they are navigating change.

I help lawyers who want to change career, midlife women who are facing the midlife collision of menopause, an empty nest, parents needing more support, bereavement and more. I have coached 15 year old school children figuring out what direction to take after GCSEs and adults who felt in a rut.

At the core of all my coaching is the idea that we already have the solutions within ourselves and coaching helps us to tease them out. They are there, I promise.

MY APPROACH

I don’t promise quick fixes. Coaching takes time. What you can expect is my undivided attention, my intuition, care and compassion.

Working with me might involve stretching outside of your comfort zone, trying new ways of thinking and some experimentation.

My mission is to support people to live with intention and with clarity and to have some fun along the way.
