Coaching professionals to achieve their goals

Helping you to help yourself

As a coach, my goal is to help you develop the self understanding, skills and attitudes that will enable you to succeed in life and at work.

Often people have a goal in mind, or a challenge they wish to overcome. I support them in finding the path that works for them.

Coaching topics can include:

Improving job performance
Relationships/conflict at work
Managing emotions at work
Returning to work after a career break/parental leave
Starting a new job or career
Leadership and management challenges
Achieving work-life balance
Work-related stress
Psychological or mindset blocks (imposter syndrome, avoidance, perfectionism etc)
Time management
Confidence building and assertiveness
Developing self awareness (through tools such as 360 feedback or personality profiling)

Most career advice misses the problem - even when it sounds sensible

"Career advice often sounds logical. Encouraging, even. But much of it misses something essential. Rather than diagnosing the underlying problem, it often jumps straight to solutions.

Testimonials

I had a fantastic experience with Nicole as my coach. She was extremely supportive, listened to my problem(s) and helped to guide me through these by helping me think of alternative ways of thinking/doing and approaching situations. I really liked learning some of the psychology around behaviours with Nicole, as this helped me to understand "why" things were happening so I could get more clarity and move forwards in the situation. I would most definitely recommend Nicole as a coach.

I found this a really positive experience - my meetings with Nicole enabled me to look at my difficulties with a different perspective, and this, plus using some great strategies we discussed, has meant that I am in a much better place psychologically and emotionally. The gaps between sessions worked well to enable me to put strategies into practice. Using the Space diagram was a great visual prompt, helping give clearer perspective. Thank you so much.

Coaching was very beneficial for me. This has helped me immensely to improve my morale and taken away quite a lot of stress and sadness regarding work. These session have helped to give me insight on how to manage work related issues/conflict and manage work related tension and stress. I was very very happy with my coach and she was very understanding, reassuring and approachable.
