1:1 Psychosomatic coaching
What is Psychosomatic Coaching?
Psychosomatic coaching working with the intimate connection between the psyche (mind, emotions, stories) and the soma (the body and its felt experience). I weave my training and experience in transformational coaching, somatic practice, relational mindfulness and psychotherapeutic approaches in a fully holistic approach - where all of you is welcome - mind-body-soul - your past, present and the future you envision for yourself, your loved ones and our planet.
I work with deep listening, presence, compassion brining my own experience of inner transformation and outer impact from a 25 year career as a leader in international development and social impact.
We live much of our lives in our heads — analysing, planning, fixing — yet true transformation happens when we come back into relationship with the wisdom of the body.
The body holds the stories the mind forgets.
It carries tension, trauma, shame, guilt, fear — the unspoken and the unseen — until we learn how to listen.
My approach as a 1:1 Coach is to create a relational space where you can share, create and talk from a deeper resource and connection within. Through gentle awareness, breath and somatic inquiry incorporated alongside coaching frameworks, reflection and powerful yet c questioning around the challenges you are facing we begin to notice what’s been held, deepen enquiry and ultimately find ways forward
We make space to release what’s stuck — the pain, resistance, or emotion that keeps us looping in old patterns.
As we soften into the body’s intelligence, we open a clearer channel to our innate wisdom, intuition and knowing — the deeper truth that guides us towards alignment, joy and vitality.
From this place, leadership becomes embodied, compassionate, and resilient.
We can meet the inevitable challenges and stretch of change-making work with steadiness and grace.

Psychosomatic coaching packages are offered as a series of 12 or 24 hour-long sessions over a period of 6 months. During this time you will explore where it is you want to be in six months time and importantly how you want to feel. I will guide you to set your goal and to set yourself actions to take you there. The journey is fluid, organic and responsive – nothing is set in stone - and you will adapt to new learnings as we go along.
I work from the core belief that each of us is a unique individual - you know yourself better than anyone else - you and only you have the innate ability to tap into your unique skills, vision and purpose and to understand what will make you truly fulfilled. You will be in the driving seat of your change, both its direction and the speed. During the work you will uncover blockages work to understand and eliminate them and you will learn more about your specific triggers that throw you off balance.
This work is not mentoring – I do not assume a greater position of skill or knowledge but take the role of a guide, listening closely and with care, feeding back to you what I am understanding.
At times I may challenge and stretch you to look and act from a deeper level, at others I may call out something to celebrate. This work is not therapy, your work is to look forwards from how you are feeling today and to begin to uncover how you want to feel, where you want to be to discover how to get there. Of course, the past will inform the sessions - feelings that arise - resistance you may encounter, but please note the sessions are not the answer for you if you are needing to work through a specific and significant trauma in the past that repeatedly holds and overwhelms you.
The series of sessions form the backbone of your transformation over the 6 month period but the work is continuous, ebbing and flowing into your everyday life throughout the period.
6 months may seem like a long time to you now but believe me it goes quickly. And a huge amount can be achieved in this time.

During our exploratory call you can see if I am a good fit for you. I will give more detail about what is involved in coaching and about how I work and answer any questions you may have, including around my pricing structure. Whilst I have set hourly rates, these can be adjusted on a sliding scale on a case-by-case basis.
Transformational coaching is set to the highest standards of coaching practice and ethics as established by the International Coaching Federation (ICF).
