What is Life Coaching?

 

I offer personal and job- related coaching to help you explore your values and purpose in life or in work. Often there are times where you feel ‘stuck’, unfulfilled, not certain how your talents could be best used. Coaching offers time and space for you to connect with your dreams and passions, to find out what you were put on this earth for, with practical steps on how to achieve this. 

During our times together, I will provide a safe, confidential place for you where you can talk honestly about your struggles and questions. 

I’ll be your cheerleader  strongly believing that you can do anything you set your heart and mind to, and that you are powerful and free to make wise choices in your life. 

I’ll stretch and challenge you where necessary, helping you explore your dreams and desires, and how to translate them into present reality through SMART goals and actions – Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Timed
(or Thrilling!). 

The Destiny Coaching model I use provides a set of tools to help you through this. It can be applied to any area of life, both personal and work-related. My approach is faith-based, so there is an opportunity to connect with your divine purpose and calling, but the tools are just as effective in a secular setting. I have found that when you start on this journey of articulating and defining your heart’s desires, doors are opened and opportunities spontaneously arise to allow them to fulfil these desires. This is the power of the model, which engages not only the mind but also the deep heart and spirit.

Session Information

How many sessions are needed?

I typically offer 8 – 10 sessions on a fortnightly or monthly basis, though the number of sessions can be more or less depending on need or circumstance. 

All my sessions are one hour long.

Are there any time commitments outside of the session?

At the end of every coaching session we will have identified together some actions enabling you to move towards your goals. To get the most out of your coaching you will have to spend some time on these between sessions.

Testimonials

Working with Katy left me revived, reinvigorated and refocussed when I had been feeling aimless and jaded and not sure where to go with my career. I discovered through our sessions that I did know what I wanted to do and felt more equipped and energised to pursue a career in that direction!’
Rachel, freelance project manager and trainer (public sector)

Katy is a fantastic coach who has not only shown an amazing ability to empathise with and understand me, but has also brought tremendous insight to long-standing questions and issues in my life. Katy combines her faithwith brilliant practical leadership and in just a few sessions was able to bring focus and  direction to key aspects of my work and family life. It helps that Katy is unfailingly warm and always great company - I can't recommend her highly enough. ‘
Akhtar, Senior Church Leader

‘I always feel like I've achieved something after a coaching session with Katy - it leaves me with more food for thought than I originally had! It is very useful to have someone to share thoughts on personal development and Katy actively checks these thoughts against my skills which overall feels like we are both working towards a 'better me' .Katy is a fantastic listener but also communicator backed up with a good sense of humour. I feel very lucky to have found a very experienced coach who also has background in my professional discipline of project management.’
Sandra, IT Project Manager

‘Katy’s coaching has been invaluable to professional and personal aspects of my life. Our sessions are helpful, inspiring, challenging and life-giving! I would (and have!) recommend her to anyone.’
