Relate trained, I can help you to figure out whether you should mend bridges, re-organise your life or move on.
When relationships (business, family or personal) are troubled, we can feel anxious or depressed. Whether its lack of, ending of, difficulties with or changes in relationships, at work or home, our need for human closeness both brings pleasure and causes problems. Maybe change is driven by others, maybe you need something to change but don't know the best way to go about it. Perhaps you’re finding that you’re stuck in a destructive communication pattern and feel like you’re going round in circles. Maybe you don’t really know what you want, but would like to find out. I can help.

I can help you to move into your future with a full and secure awareness of who you are, and how you need your life to be.
Hello, I'm Jill. Do you feel like you’ve lost touch with your authentic self? Would you like to get to know you better, and learn to embrace all the parts that make up who you are? I have a real passion for working with neurodivergent women, towards understanding the whole picture of who you are and unlock any limiting beliefs that are keeping you stuck. As a late-diagnosed ADHD woman, I have lived experience of the journey of self-rediscovery and of making sense of past experiences and relationships through a completely new lens. I am a counsellor and therapeutic coach and can work with you in a holistic way to meet your needs.

He said that many of those in the healing professions have been wounded in the past and by working through their concerns and understanding more their own personal 'wounds' they desire to help others who may be dealing and suffering with similar life struggles.
My wounded heart throughout the years has led me down some dark paths before I ended up on the personal growth and development path taking me to places where it was incredibly necessary to do the therapeutic work you may be presently considering as a way to move forward and find peace within yourself—all of this, including engaging in 1 to 1 talking therapy.

Life Coaching Counsellors

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
