I started my working career in education whilst simultaneously studying for my degree  and I spent many happy years in the profession. After a time though, I knew that I had more to give and could do more to make a difference in the world.  I have always loved helping others, and it felt natural to combine my love of learning, teaching and health & wellbeing by becoming a qualified health coach. I gained my  Level 5 Diploma in Health Coaching and Nutritional Therapy, and I then decided to train as a mindfulness teacher too, meaning that I am better equipped to support with stress, anxiety and emotional health. My thirst for information and enjoyment of learning means that I constantly train and update my knowledge ensuring that I offer the best service and maintain professional standards. It is vital that I stay up to date with training and skills so I decided early on to join the

UK and International Health Coach Association and am proud to be a full member. 

 

I understand first-hand what it means to feel happy in my own skin, comfortable in the knowledge that I have the power to look after my own health and do the best I can for me. I used to shy away from sports and physical activity, but that changed when I became a parent and took up running as a form of ‘me time’. This helped me realise how good I could feel, and combined with lifestyle changes I began to feel re-energised and thrived. I wanted to help other people feel like this, and to take back control of their own health too. Becoming a health coach was the obvious thing to do and I feel privileged to work with individuals to improve not just their physical health but also their mental health. 

 

I work with clients of all ages and also run courses for public health. In my spare time I can be found walking with my labrador, running (I enjoy the odd marathon), or with my head stuck in a book enjoying a coffee! I am definitely a sunshine lover and spend as much time with family and friends as I can. Please click below to get in touch and let’s chat about you.
