CREATE A LIFE YOU LOVE
Coaching and seeing people grow, find happiness and peace, and achieve their goals is my absolute passion.
In today’s crazy world my priority is to help people manage their STRESS levels . . .
THE UNCOMMON COACH SPECIALISES IN STRESS RELIEF COACHING FOR AT HOME, AT SCHOOL OR IN THE WORKPLACE.
Unmanaged stress underlies anxiety, panic attacks, depression, anger and impulse control, burnout, absenteeism, and performance problems, as well as many stress-related illnesses. It reduces focus and memory and impacts neurogenesis, brain wiring, and function. If not treated it can severely and sometimes permanently affect your life.
We take a holistic view of the issue – and have had success helping students, children, parents, partners, work teams and everyday people from all walks of life manage their stress levels and lead a happier, calmer, and more enjoyable life.
The Uncommon Coach specialises in STRESS RELIEF COACHING, MOTIVATIONAL TALKS and WORKSHOPS.

About
I am authentic, experienced, intuitive, curious and always learning about minds, hearts and souls.
Helping people grow and learn is my fascination, my passion and a big part of my life purpose.
Coming from a formal background of both mainstream and industrial psychology, I moved into professional life coaching as a more affordable, accessible and practical method of helping everyday people succeed in life. Over 20 years’ training, mentoring, managing and growing various organisations provide a perfect background to help me help you grow you, your teams, your career and your business through coaching.
I became a qualified professional Life Coach in 2007 and have since then been part of many clients’ exciting growth journeys.
Let me help you create a life you love
