What can
Coaching offer?

A space to explore more about your self and your purpose.
An opportunity for you to explore your unique strengths and realise your potential.
A deeper connection with your purpose that will guide everything you do.
A space to explore and experiment.

I will help you think about what leveraging your strengths really looks like in practice...

I have a supportive and pragmatic approach balanced by a challenging but warm and supportive style when coaching clients. I have operated as a coach to many senior executives, leaders and managers and I understand some of the pressures you face.

I believe it is not possible to drive long term sustainable high performance by focusing on weaknesses – so I will help you think about what leveraging your strengths really looks like in practice. Focusing on strengths doesn’t mean ignoring potential blind spots and part of my approach would be to help you understand those blind spots and any impact they may be having on your performance and ultimately your ability to drive excellence for yourself and others.

I am driven by delivering results and my passionate commitment to help in a variety of situations such as:

Transitional roles such as returning from maternity, sickness, interim etc
Promotion
Performance
Avoiding self-sabotage
Being the best you can be
Increasing impact and presence
Achieving greater insight and self-awareness of how you are experienced by others
Navigating a particular stage in your career
Understanding how to influence others in complex highly political organisational cultures and hierarchies.

If you would like to learn more then please do get in touch with me.

01 Getting started...

If you have any questions about individual or team coaching or coaching supervision call, email or use the contact form below.

I will answer any initial questions that you may have and if you'd like to find out more we can set up a chemistry session.

02 Chemistry Session

A chemistry session allows us to explore if we will be a good fit to work together, a chance to explore what you want to achieve and how we will work going forward including how often, where and how we will do this.

Chemistry sessions can take place over the phone and is free of charge. Coaching sessions will be charged and fees will be discussed during the chemistry session as this is subject to the unique support you need.

03 Coaching Sessions

We will spend time developing your goals for coaching and will agree any psychometrics, if any, to help kick start your journey of self awareness and leadership insight.

We will meet for 1.5 to 2 hours approximately every 4-6 weeks to enable deep dialogue to reflect on issues, dilemmas and opportunities.

"Helen was supportive and positive throughout.

Great questioning and listening of course which helped me work problems through with a comfortable level of

challenge – enough to prod me to question my thoughts and feelings more deeply which was super."

Team Coaching and Coaching Supervision

Team Coaching

Coaching one-to-one is a very powerful way to help someone reflect on issues that affect their performance and well-being. But just focusing on the individual and what is going on for them internally, is only part of the picture. Sustainable individual change can often only be achieved, if the environment around them also changes to support and reinforce new behaviours and ways of thinking.

Teams that embrace team coaching tend to demonstrate more focused, collective energy. Team coaching isn’t always transformational, nor the answer for all team performance issues – if the team is actually just a bunch of people who work together, but have no desire for collective improvement, then the impact may be very limited. Where team coaching can work is when:

A new team is being formed
A team is not working as effectively as it could, and the team leader and team members agree that they want to do better
An established team has lost its sparkle and wants to regain it.

Coaching Supervision

I offer one-to-one Coaching Supervision. The purpose of Coach Supervision is to support coach’s professional, personal and coaching practice’s health and wellbeing. It also indirectly ensures that the clients of the supervised coach are also well supported and receive the best possible coaching experience.

I will support a coach’s reflective practice and stimulate ongoing learning and development helping to maintain and raise quality standards across the profession.

Coaching Supervision is a place where coaches can:

Reflect on their coaching practice and coaching career without feeling judged
Explore client work in confidence with an experienced coach
Find answers to questions such as, Why do I always get stuck working with this client?
Reflect and celebrate achievments and successes
Benchmark their practice and explore continued learning
Learn some coaching techniques and knowledge
Renew their energy for coaching.

"My experience of coaching has been an uplifting, challenging and

overall an enjoyable experience. I have much greater understanding of myself."

It is important to meet in a confidential space to work, this can either take place in either of my two private locations in the Kingston Upon Thames area, or within your workplace. Skype sessions are available upon request.
