What coaching looks like

Coaching is almost like an appropriately trained human version of how ChatGPT is most often used.

My aim is to support you to identify and take steps towards what you really want, away from the inner (and outer) critics. My training as a mental health first aider and a mentor helps me create a secure and calm space - blame-free accountability, where you can feel comfortable being open and honest. The aim is to coach ourselves out of a job - so that you reach a point where you don't need us.

Who I work with

Freelance Artists & Performers: Navigating the arts and media industries.
Corporate Professionals: Looking to reconnect with their artistic/free-er selves.
Companies: Looking for first-hand insights into effective support for their neurodivergent colleagues.
Parents: Finding new ways to connect with artistic neurodivergent children.
Groups: Workshops and group coaching sessions.

Next Steps

Email me to arrange a 30mins free intro call and we can talk more about what you're looking for, my coaching (what coaching even is!) and share experiences.

Or go straight ahead and book in a 50 mins 'pay what you like' coaching taster session (one per person) and just buy me a coffee afterwards.

Funding

If you need help applying for Access to Work in order to pay for coaching then ADHD Works has a great free video that you can body double with during your application. My rate for 1:1 coaching is in-line with Access to Work grant rates, and we usually book in blocks of 6 or 12 weekly one hour sessions. Group coaching, consultation and workshop rates vary per project.

Free Events

I organise regular free inclusive events for 'Music in Offices', these include pop-up choir singing, gallery visits, classical and jazz gigs, supporting other musicians and artists. Click here to sign up, and we can talk about coaching in person. I also frequently attend the free open to all @SouthbankPortraitSession in London, every Sunday from 11am - 6pm (drop in and out however suits), an opportunity to sketch 15 minutes portraits in a judgement free and peaceful space.

Advanced AuDHD Coaching

Individuals with ADHD, Autism and AuDHD (diagnosis or no diagnosis) are inherently 'unconventional' which is absolutely to be celebrated. Coaching helps us embrace this and navigate 'conventional' environments where necessary, alongside working towards our own definition of excellence in whichever direction we choose.

I trained with ADHD Works as an Advanced AuDHD coach, after over 15 years working in arts and media organisations in various roles. From experiencing a range of challenges first-hand, I have a good understanding of what makes a healthy and inclusive work environment for neurodivergent individuals.
