About Me

I am a professionally qualified and experienced Careers Coach and Adviser, a Registered Careers Development Professional (RCDP) and a member of the Careers Development Institute.  I provide excellent 1:1 Careers guidance and counselling for those who need help identifying their individual pathway to success, those who have lost their way on their career journey and also for those who are seeking to grow, expand and fulfil their career potential.

I offer guidance on career opportunities, national and international educational establishments, where and how to identify new employment opportunities, how to use labour market information to your best advantage when job seeking, applications, cover letters/CV writing skills and successful interview techniques. 

I am also a Master Resilience Trainer and regularly present training workshops to teach individuals the skills and techniques to improve their resilience. Resilience is the passion, grit, perseverance, persistence and hard work that will enable my clients to withstand, recover and GROW in the face of stressors and changing demands. Resilient behaviours lead to stronger performance and better health, resilient leaders are more valued by members of the team and more skilled at reaching consensus during negotiations.  

What makes my services unique?

I can provide a mixture of professional career coaching, guidance, counselling and training that will enable individuals to become the “best version of themselves,” to be successful and thrive in their chosen job or career and reflect this success in the role they aspire to. I can also provide companywide training to employers who wish to grow and improve the performance of their employees and therefore the company. In this time of post Covid, it is imperative that individuals and companies have the mental wellbeing, strength and resilience skills to bounce back and grow in order to ensure future company success and employee wellbeing.
