Coaching is a partnership between two people.

In this section, I give you a sense of who I am and how I work.

Sarah’s Training

I am a very experienced Professional Life Coach who has been helping people successfully create life shifts, big and small, for 15 years.

A fully trained coach and hypnotherapist, I have a rich and eclectic wealth of knowledge, and a life-long love of learning that ensures my clients get targeted help using the latest techniques..

I have a BSc in Anthropology and Psychology. My coach training is through the ICF accredited Adler International School in Toronto, and my hypnosis training is Ericksonian.

All of this training and experience is directed to the thing I value most: helping others lead happier lives.

My style of coaching draws much from the field of positive psychology, and the latest in brain-based coaching techniques.

Clients know me to have a laser-like instinct for what they most need to make a shift, but that I deliver it in such a relaxing way they can hardly believe how effective it is.

 

Story So Far

Like many of you, my story so far has had its ups and downs. If life were likened to the sea I have experienced conditions ranging from smooth to choppy, to squalls coming out of nowhere, calm periods of great beauty and exhilarating times of high winds.

Through these challenges and successes, I learned tools that help me be unshakeably happy whatever is going on in my life.

Once you have that foundation in place anything is possible.

I’ve been through many transitions: job changes (publishing to marketing to advertising), marriage, moved continents, had children, been an at-home Mum, experienced divorce, created my own coaching business.

 

Change

I really ‘get’ transitions; the challenges, the discomfort, the resources you need to draw on to move through them.

The difference between success and failure is often as simple as a fresh perspective.

 

Snapshot

I have two grown kids and an adopted dog all of which keep me busy and happy.

When I work with clients I always get to know what their values are so it only seems fair that you know mine.

Kindness to me is everything.

Nature feeds my soul and makes me happy.

I value friendships, family, connection and community.

A big believer in mind-body connection I find lots of ways so stay active; playing tennis, doing ELDOA and yoga and walking every day.

Art and beauty in general nourishes me at a deep level.  When in London seeing family nothing makes me happier than wandering around the many art galleries.

Today, I do more of what I love and worry less about obstacles. This formula seems to work, as it powers me through challenges that pop up. And let’s face it life predictably throws us curve-balls!

Change is the only thing you can count on in life. We can’t control it but we can shape how we respond. It is your experience of each moment, the way you frame it and the choices you make next that matter.

Every thought, every belief, every decision we make has the power to change our future. 

What I Love to Do

I use coaching to help people bridge the gap between where they are now and where they want to be.

How? By combining the science of coaching with a very human approach.

This keeps you on track and supports you as you make the deeper changes.

You have a unique contribution to make, and dreams to nurture. Let’s make them happen now!

If you are ready to make changes in your life, let’s schedule a chat, assess your needs and sketch out a plan.
