Working with me

Who is coaching with Kate for?

Anyone who wants to develop and progress. You might be 18 or 80.

Maybe you are stuck in your career, or have a difficult boss, or a new leadership role, or just started university. Maybe your concern is more about relationships, or juggling family and job, or you feel you lack the confidence to fulfil your potential?

What can coaching with Kate do for you?

It allows you the space and time to articulate and reflect on where you want to get to, what might be blocking you, and help you come up with your own solutions for how to get there.

Coaching is about your development and this will mean different things to different people, at different stages, and in different areas of their lives.

Why does coaching with Kate work?

Coaching is a dialogue, where together we discuss and examine different pathways to work out the best way forward. In essence the dialogue is an act of co-creation, where new ideas are sparked, new possibilities appear.

Whilst it is sometimes a challenging process, you will have no fear of judgement, and we always go at your pace.

When I started my sessions with Kate my life felt like a whirlwind, I was all over the place and constantly felt like I was chasing my tail. My first impression of Kate was that she was easy to talk to and her reassuring, calm manner allowed me to open up and be honest without fear of judgement. In the last 18 months, working with Kate has completely transformed my approach to life, I feel more positive, confident and in control. She is practical, honest and a wonderful listener but her greatest strength lies in her ability to empathise with the people she coaches. No matter how big a crisis feels at the start of our session I know that by the end I will feel on top of the world and be able to move forward with a renewed sense of optimism. I would highly recommend working with her! Thank you Kate!

Kate provided coaching to me during the height of the UK's first lockdown. Through insightful questions, she allows you to drive the conversation and lead yourself down alternative thought paths to consider how to achieve your goals. She was a great support and a friendly face to talk things over throughout the pandemic.

I really enjoyed my sessions with Kate; she always made me feel extremely comfortable within her presence. For a long time I have struggled with work related anxiety and it had affected my confidence and self-esteem for many years. Which was why I was so pleased by the outcome of my sessions with Kate. Kate helped me to work through my struggles and come up with practical solutions so I was always fully prepared for every situation. I came out of every session with a new- found confidence and motivation I didn’t know I had. I was overjoyed because in just a few short sessions I was able to make more progress that I had in years; I was able to take on my fears and the anxiety I was facing and develop my confidence. In just a few months, I started a job role as a Social Media Executive in marketing and my confidence has drastically improved, I am able to communicate effectively with others and take on any challenge I am faced with and I owe it all to Kate for helping me to see that I was capable of achieving anything. If you’re looking for an inspiring and friendly work coach then you need to book a session with Kate today; you won’t regret it!

Having started a new job in a new school this year, I have found working with Kate to be exceptionally beneficial to me. Professionally, coaching has helped me reflect and consider best practice in my job - I have felt more confident, more assertive and learned more about how to ask myself the pertinent questions to support my growth and development in this role. Kate has been extremely encouraging, thoughtful and insightful and I have found talking to her and working with her really easy to do as she is so warm and motivating. Through the course of my sessions I have reflected on my leadership style, responding to challenges, developing effective team cultures and thought about protecting my own wellbeing in my new role and new leadership position. I had no previous experience with coaching, and I am so pleased that I worked with Kate!

Kate's session gave me the guidance that I needed to get through a time of confusion. Through her kind, open attitude and deeply understanding nature, she was able to help me achieve things both big and small that otherwise would have felt impossible by myself. She has equipped me with tools to help myself get through any hurdles that life might throw at me. As well as helping me make decisions towards my future, she also offers a safe space to reflect on past things. Her patience and reassurance made my sessions with her so comfortable and productive. I would highly recommend her as a life coach and give her 10 stars if I could!

There are so many amazing things I could say about Kate - more than I can fit in this review! She has been coaching me for the last 18 months and has been wonderful to work with. She is calm, reassuring, has bounds of knowledge (if you ever need to ask her anything) and above all she has made me always feel comfortable, secure and supported even when I've faced challenging personal battles. When I started coaching sessions with Kate I wasn't sure if I 'needed' a coach or where we would be going but the last 18months have been an incredible journey where I've gained more awareness both within myself and others around me that I feel confident in handling anything life throws at me. I can't recommend Kate highly enough, do just one hour with her and you'll know what I mean 🙂 It's been an absolute pleasure working with her and I feel like I've made a friend for life!

I would recommend Kate anytime as she is a kind and empathic listener, with a warm manner. Her sensitivity and gentle nudging makes her a great companion when stuck in unhelpful thinking patters and she will help you see the bigger picture. It has been a delight to work with her.

Next Step

Please contact me if you are interested in finding out more, and we can arrange an initial conversation to discuss what you are hoping to gain from coaching. This is free and is a useful opportunity for us both to get a feel for whether we will work well together: our relationship is integral to your success.

This normally takes about 15 minutes and is also a useful time for discussing practicalities such as where and when we will meet.

Pricing

People vary in terms of how many sessions they would like to have, and there is no commitment to sign up for any number. My experience shows me that you are likely to be more successful in achieving your goals if you have several sessions, as this gives time for you to ponder the issues you are working on and for our relationship to build, which is one of the key ingredients for coaching to be successful.

To reflect this belief, three sessions are £150, or individual sessions are £65. Sessions are normally for one hour, though some people prefer a little longer. It is up to you.
