Professional Coaching

COACHING SERVICES

If you are a professional, and dealing with tricky issues at work that do not have a quick solution, then I can help.

My clients are managers of teams or projects, or they are aspiring to become managers in their organisation. Others are running their own business or consultancy and are in the first two years of business start-up. They come because they need some space to think through issues like managing the team, dealing with a difficult colleague, handling overwhelm, or planning the next step for a happier working life.

I will not tell you what to do, though you will come out of our session(s) knowing that for yourself. I will support you to see the full picture, and help you to connect to your existing inner resources and what your intuition and intellect want to tell you. I will not judge you.

I take a practical, solution focused approach but I will not rush you to find the answer. I will help you get in touch with those things we normally leave at home in the morning: your intuitions, feelings, goals and hopes, as well as what you already know about your sitaution, and use creative techniques to help you draw out the solution from yourself. I aim to make sessions enjoyable and that you leave feeling relieved and re-inspired.

Sometimes it only takes one session, sometimes a few more, but if you bring a work-related problem to my coaching room you’ll find that you walk away with something that will help you take a step forward. It may be enhanced leadership skills, a new perspective or creative solution, an increase in self-confidence and self-esteem or the ability to communicate more effectively.

This isn’t about making a “new you”, but finding and employing inner resources that you didn’t know you had so you can bring more of the real you to your work. And everyone around you benefits.

TESTIMONIALS

What My Client's Say

My six sessions with Liz were life changing for me. Liz has helped me to deal with some difficult issues and enabled me to think in a completely different way than is natural to me. She enabled me to realise how I was feeling and why and to come up with solutions myself. This has had a hugely positive impact on my working and home life.

Communications Manager, Leeds

The coaching experience itself was new to me so I did not have any set expectations but I would highly recommend it to anyone (and with Liz in particular!) who needs to be reminded about their self-worth and their abilities and how to use them most effectively.

Head of Governance, Higher Education Sector

When I first experienced Liz's coaching, I was blown away. She is not only incredibly skilful and creative in her coaching, but also deeply intuitive in the way that she connects with what is at the heart of the matter. Actually, Liz also trained me as a Post Graduate Level coach trainee and she is a fantastic tutor. She is well-read and takes care to explain unfamiliar concepts and theories. Her facilitation of experiential group earning is well-organised, flexible and encouraging. If you get the chance to work with Liz, you will find it life-changing!

Jennifer McConnell

Coach, Trainer & Facilitator

I have used Liz as a coach over the last few years and will continue to do so. Liz is expert at creating a safe coaching space; her knowledge of psychological approaches and techniques is excellent which gets to the nub of the challenges I bring. Her approach and style have brought me new awareness of unhelpful beliefs I hold that drive my own behaviours, by being aware of these I have been able to initiate change that has meant my performance in many areas of my work has improved.

Associate Director, Innovation Agency, NHS

Liz provided me with outstanding coaching – adopting a very approachable, professional, flexible, friendly and safe space both physically and mentally for the coaching to be conducted. Liz’ style allows her to be a very active listener, which enabled effective reflection. She comfortably and confidently was able to strentch and challenge my thinking and dilemma. She demonstrated a wealth of experience and adopted different techniques to support and challenge my thinking.

Director, Education

Working with Liz has allowed me to be able to step back and adopt a level of objectivity about myself. She has a calming influence and helped me to think a little deeper about my ability to improve myself and my situation; to take control and move forward positively. Liz helped me to explore that taking charge of the things you can control and acknowledging the things you can’t, gives you power
