“The coaching enabled me to talk through my processes and take time to reflect and develop awareness of my responses to challenges and how I might use or adapt those responses for a more successful outcome. I work for an organisation that is values driven, and it was very useful to think about my own strengths and values in the context of work culture; to see being values driven and empathetic as a strength rather exposing and a potential weakness. This was particularly insightful as a woman in leadership who utilises empathy in the workplace, but can sometimes see that as a point to be exploited by others. Thea helped me to find renewed value in my leadership style whilst being firm in my expectation of others in my team and in my own leaders.”

“Thea listens to what I bring and, as is the skill of a good coach and counsellor, she makes me feel that what I bring is valuable and worthy, this relaxes me and empowers me, so I in turn can feel this to be true in myself. I do feel that she guides me to my own knowing without imposing views on me. Thea creates a lovely space that encourages me to drop, focus and feel where I am at the beginning of each session. I love this space; where we use the singing bowl to help us to drop away from the daily chatter and into our internal world before we commence. Each time I recognise my hunger to make more of these spaces in my life.”
Holly- Social Enterprise Founder
“I was pleasantly surprised that I concluded the sessions with a toolbox of useful techniques that will support me in the future. I was expecting to emerge with a grand plan or a set of goals to aim for but the coaching resulted in my having a far deeper, useful and flexible approach to life and how I approach it. I feel confident that this methodology will support me during the years to come.”

‘‘Thea has helped me become more strategic and enabled me to clearly identify the skills, resources and support I need to ensure my projects thrive. Our sessions are action orientated and I always leave with a clear list of tasks and a refreshed sense of positivity and motivation. Since working with Thea I have become more effective and efficient and have also learnt to prioritise my wellbeing. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.’’
Laura, Public Sector Worker
‘‘After searching internally for a strategy to change & step-up my business I was put in touch with Thea by a business contact. After four months of of intense work I now have a clear focus of where my business is going and, more importantly, my place in the business. I'd recommend business coaching generically and Thea in particular to anyone self-employed or with a small business struggling to see the bigger picture, the direction, through the day-to-day humdrum of running a business. Looking forward to the next year of using Thea as a longer-term coach as the business evolves.
‘Jez, Sustainable Forestry Business Founder’
‘‘Thea has an amazing capacity for listening and bringing into focus a route to action to help me achieving my goals. In a short time, Thea has helped me transform my business in strengthening its foundations and supporting its direction in line with my vision. During my time working with her I have developed a greater compassion for myself and an ease in my day-to-day way of working. I now more easily feel into what holds me back and work through challenges in a productive and joyful way.’’
