Author/Coach

As well as writing fiction and non-fiction, I am a certified Sedona Method coach and instructor. I love to support people to let go of self-criticisms and become kinder to themselves. In coaching sessions we will mainly use The Sedona Method, a powerful process that has enabled people all over the world to let go of negative beliefs and emotions. We will also explore self-compassion, understanding why it’s so important, why it’s not self-indulgent and won’t make you selfish — but will almost certainly bring inner calm and easier relationships.

Coaching

Do you often criticise yourself or try to force yourself to change? If so, it might come as a relief to know there’s a gentler, kinder way to create the changes you’d like to see.

I know what it feels like to be trapped in a cycle of self-criticism and self-dislike and I also know the joy that comes from developing self-compassion. And contrary to what many believe, this doesn't make us self-important but helps us be kinder to others too. So everyone wins!

In coaching sessions I will guide you to recognise self-judgments and will support you to treat yourself with kindness. You will experience for yourself how this also softens your feelings towards others. 

If this sounds appealing, check out my coaching page for details of how to contact me for a free 30 minute "get to know you" session.
