What Clients Are Saying
“My coaching session with Clare provided powerful insights which are already delivering results.
Clare is a great listener and her thought-provoking questions helped me to unpick unhelpful beliefs about myself, all in a relaxed atmosphere where I felt incredibly comfortable. She also shared valuable insights into ideas I was holding on to which were sabotaging my efforts. I am now moving forward with confidence in an area where I was feeling very ‘stuck’.
Whether you are looking to do a deep dive into a particular area of your life or work as I was, or are looking at more in-depth, longer-term coaching, I highly recommend Clare’s compassionate, empowering and effective approach.”
— PRIVATE CLIENT
“Clare is an excellent coach. She listens carefully, gives you space and time to talk things through so that you can move forward and always seems to know just the right thing to ask to challenge you to think differently about whatever you bring to the session.”
— Rebecca
“I had the privilege of being coached by Clare recently where I was going through a particularly tricky time. Clare created such a safe space for me to show up how I needed to in those moments that mattered and I would always come out of our sessions having worked through a lot and gained a level of clarity.
Time with Clare always felt safe, productive , no judgement at all - her calmness allowed me to explore the things that I needed to and Clares ability to ask the right questions at the right time which can unlock a deeper level of exploration or understanding that I would never have been able to access without her skill as a coach.
Thank you Clare you are a powerful coach and a wonderful human ”
— Wendy
“Before I started working with Clare I was feeling like I was in a bit of a decision stale-mate, and frequently sabotaging what I really wanted in order to make career decisions that I knew were expected of me.
During our session Clare listened and held a space where I could speak without fear. And in doing so, I gave myself permission to articulate what was important to me, and address some negative thoughts. I had a lot of really powerful breakthroughs.
Now, I've learnt so much about what I want to do, and the difference between that and doing what I think I should be doing to impress people that I don't care all that much about. Moving forward, I'm going to be focused on what I want, and not apply for roles I don't want.
I would absolutely recommend Clare as a Coach. She is compassionate, kind, insightful, and wise. ”
— NICk, Writer
“Clare is an attentive coach who is fully present and provides a safe, sunlit space to be fully in touch with my thoughts and feelings. Clare's skilled meditation techniques, active listening and gently probing questions created a 'soul workshop' for me to process the trauma of redundancy, identify future life goals, and ground myself in the quiet enjoyment of the present moment. Thank you, Clare”
— AMY
“Clare’s coaching has helped me become more clear about the goals I wanted to achieve and helped me with my self-confidence which I was really struggling with. Clare helped me explore resources that I didn’t realise I had within reach. She was great at listening to my concerns. She was brilliant at making me feel at ease in a supportive and nurturing environment.”
— ELENI
“I have found her gentle skillfulness very helpful to tease out the best in myself and shake off what's holding me back. Haven't looked back and - in fact very much looking forward to our next session!”
— SONA
“Clare is an engaging and inspiring coach who gave me a space to reflect in a comfortable environment, and left the session feeling motivated and encouraged!”
— NICK
Before I started working with Clare, I was locked in cyclical thinking about whether I was doing the right thing with work. I was aware that work was potentially affecting my health, family, and well-being. I also felt that I wasn’t reaching my potential professionally.
During our sessions, Clare was a patient listener. At first, I expected to be given answers and solutions but that didn’t happen. Rather, Clare created spaces from which I was able to start untangling some of my thoughts and challenging some preconceptions about my situation. This felt slightly uncomfortable at first but with Clare’s support and encouragement, it was immensely helpful. It was beneficial to realise that there was a lot more that was in my control than I had realised. At the end of each session, I always came away with a much clearer understanding of what was going on and what I needed to do. I also felt that I had some answers and solutions to the problems which I had started the session with.
Now I feel a lot happier in my current role and feel that I can achieve a healthy work-life balance. I have a clearer idea of what I want to achieve in the future and how I can go about doing that. Most importantly I feel that I have learnt some skills and confidence to be able to work out challenges myself.
I would recommend Clare as a coach to anyone looking for support. It will be a journey of self-discovery that will leave you feeling better, empowered and confident.
— PRIVATE CLIENT
“I enjoyed a series of coaching sessions with Clare in early 2023. These took place during a period of transition for me letting go of my previous career and responsibilities and starting up a new venture with associated challenges and opportunities. Clare enabled me to focus on what was important and to achieve clarity over priorities. The regular sessions ensured I remained accountable and made progress with launching the venture with associated website and marketing materials...all of which required me to acquire and develop new skills. Clare's thoughtfulness, her intelligence and her empathy all make her an ideal coach and I wish her all the best. ”
— ANN
“The coaching sessions were inspiring. They allowed me to reflect on my goals and where I want to be. This way of thinking, especially the visualisation techniques, really helped me push forward with my goals. Throughout my sessions I began believing in myself more, and put myself forward for professional opportunities, resulting in an amazing promotion.”
— SONIA
“What I really liked was her gentle approach to ask me questions and explore the things that I was working for in my life.
Her deep listening, and the space she held for me during our sessions really helped to reflect about my life and refocus to my goals.
I would recommend Clare as a life coach to any person who wants to move forward in life, to change or to accomplish their goals.”
— AMRISHAN
“I've just completed a 6-session block with Clare and found her approach gentle, curious, well structured with insightful reflections. I really appreciated the time to reflect on my professional development and how to progress my business. Thank you Clare, it was lovely to spend the time with you. ”
— KATHERINE
“I gave the area that I wished to focus on and Clare talked me through visualization of those issues and the way to navigate the blockage when it comes up in my career.
Loved her method, her warm personality and the impact such a short session has had. I highly recommend her life coaching to anyone looking for clarification around life/ professional issues and how to navigate them. ”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Coaching is a structured conversation between you (the client) myself (the coach). I will walk side by side with you to explore your personal and professional goals and how to reach them. The coaching process is creative, thought-provoking and often unlocks new ways of thinking, productivity and growth.
The coaching sessions are a safe, completely non-judgmental, and supportive space, where I will listen to you, ask questions, find out what your challenges are and inspire you to reach your end goal. You will be encouraged to make decisions and be accountable to yourself.
It is future-focussed. It looks towards where you want to be, and how to get there. We may dip into the past to take useful learning and reflection. But this is for the purpose of supporting you to find your best way forward, that works best for you now.
I may use some tools and frameworks to structure the conversations and to raise self-awareness and exploration of ideas.
-
Coaching can support people to move from where they are now, to where they want to be. This looks different for everyone. Here are a few examples…
You want to be reaching your full potential
You want to live more in-line with your values and what’s important to you
You want to find more balance in your life
You want to get un-stuck and find more clarity and direction
You want to work through a big decision, and find a solution that works best for you
You want to get back on track, after being thrown off-course
You want to feel more empowered and confident in yourself
You want to use your skills and abilities to their fullest
If you want to prioritise YOU, start taking real ACTION to move towards your dream future, and have the SUPPORT and accountability to make this happen, coaching might be exactly what you need.
-
Coaching is about you. It’s not about your coach giving you professional advice or recommendations, so it is not mentoring or consultation.
I believe you are the expert of your own experience, and have all the resources, strengths and knowledge you need. Coaching supports you to uncover these, and find your own solutions, in a way that is right for you, which leads to meaningful and sustainable change.
It is also important to be aware that it is not therapeutic support for mental health issues and challenges. It may arise in the discovery call that a different intervention, other than coaching, may be better suited to you.
-
The more you put in, the more you get out of coaching.
You’ll do a lot of work during the sessions themselves, but the embedding, integration, and action of that learning comes in-between the sessions.
To get the most out of the sessions, it’s important to come prepared with a particular goal or aspiration that you would like to work towards.
Make sure you’re in a quiet and relaxed environment where you can talk freely without distractions. Bring a pen and paper to take any notes, a drink, and anything you else you need to feel comfortable.
Some people like to spend 5-10 minutes before the session doing some breathing or mindfulness exercises to calm the brain, and get in a relaxed and clear headspace.
-
I comply strictly to the ICF Code of Ethics meaning that I adhere to the highest ethical standards for coaching, creating a safe, non-judgemental, and confidential space.
Confidentiality may only be breached in specific cases where there is an imminent risk of harm, or criminal activity.
Before we begin the sessions we will read and sign a client agreement that will give you full information about what is expected from the client and what you can expect from me, as the coach.

In a word, no. The change that you see and the results you get from coaching, come from you. The more you put into the coaching process the more you will get out of it. No coach can guarantee any specific results for their clients.
However, coaching has the power to be truly life changing. Some of the changes you can expect to see from coaching are...
You have a greater clarity on what you want to do in life
You overcome barriers that may be holding you back
You make lasting and sustainable lifestyle change
You live more in-line with your values
You make decisions that you know are right for you
You have greater confidence and higher level of self-awareness
You achieve professional goals and improve performance
You feel empowered and in control to make positive change
You find more balance in your life
You find more fulfilment in work or home life
You feel like you’re using your strengths and skills to their fullest
