About Me
I am an experienced Professional Development Coach, and my focus is on you and your needs. Therefore, my interest is in the development of you, your career, your business, and/or your team.
I have been coaching for 7 years, and what I have learnt is that everyone’s journey in life is unique, and we all develop and learn in different ways.
Therefore, I create bespoke, individualised, multi-modal coaching sessions, that are as unique as you are!
Similarly, for teams, I create dynamic and interactive workshop sessions that are based on the need of the team, not filled with generic coaching content.
I am a globally recognised Associate Certified Coach awarded by the International Coaching Federation ILM-7 equivalent. I will complete my post grad studies this year. I am also a Professional Member of the EMCC UK and Associate Member of the Association of Coaching.
My coaching educational journey has allowed me to hone my coaching knowledge, create an evidence-base to support my skills, and perfect my craft. My coaching technique are inspired by a variety of psychological approaches, such as Passmore’s universal eclectic coaching model, organisational development and management theories, and other hybrid frameworks.
I lead through example. There is no point being a coach if I’m not living in alignment to my core values!
As a medic, I qualified in Medicine from Newcastle upon Tyne in 2001, and I am currently an NHS portfolio GP (20 years), Clinical Director of Community Governance (5 years), and a GP Appraiser (13 years). I have experience working in the private sector, training, mentoring and a variety of medical leadership roles.
As part of my Governance role, I have been involved in the investigation of healthcare staff who have been involved in formal regulatory and legal processes. I understand the impact that these processes can have. I have coached Professionals who have come through the other end of these processes and are in need of bespoke personal and career coaching.

Coaching Approach
My motto is – It’s about YOU.
My focus is YOU - listening to you, your needs, your challenges, and helping you develop.
Everybody has a unique path of development; therefore, my coaching style is bespoke and as unique as you are!
Taking the time to get to know you, establish a firm rapport, and with flexibility, use tools or techniques that I feel will work best for you or your team. Using a facilitative approach which is constructively challenging, forward-facing, and solution focused.
My team approach is very interactive and fun promoting self-discovery, reflection, and development of team dynamics.
I am empathetic, an excellent listener, easy to talk to, and I will challenge you to expand your thought processes, engaging in deep reflections and you will leave my sessions with action points, ongoing insightful reflections, and personal and professional development.
In a nutshell, my previous client referred to me as her “pocket rocket cheerleader”!
