About Me

Hello!

I help people navigate change with confidence.

Life is full of transitions. Some we choose. Others are unexpected.

Whether you are changing career, stepping into a leadership role, re-building your confidence, facing an important decision or simply feeling stuck, these moments can leave you feeling uncertain, overwhelmed or questioning your next step.

Coaching provides a confidential, supportive space to pause, reflect and gain the clarity and confidence to move forward.

As an accredited coach with over 25 years' experience in Human Resources, I have supported people through many of the challenges that arise during periods of change and transition. I understand that the biggest obstacles are often not practical—they are the doubts, fears and limiting beliefs that can hold us back.

My coaching style is calm, collaborative and non-judgemental. I won't tell you what to do or offer quick fixes. Instead, I will ask thoughtful questions, help you gain fresh perspectives and support you in finding solutions that feel right for you. My aim for every session is to leave you feeling clearer, more confident and equipped with practical steps towards your goals.

While many of my clients are professionals navigating workplace challenges or moving into leadership roles, I also work with anyone who wants to build confidence, improve resilience, make important life or career decisions, or create positive and lasting change.

If you are ready to invest some time in yourself and discover what is possible, I would be delighted to support you on your journey.

Clients often tell me they leave sessions feeling calmer, clearer and with practical next steps.

A few comments from some of my clients:

'Colette has a very calming presence and she put me at ease from the beginning. She focussed on me and what I wanted to achieve, never on what she thought I should achieve. For such a long time I hadn’t been thinking for myself but I realised that the answers I needed I always had’

'Colette has been extremely supportive in helping me better understand my personal goals and ambitions, as well as encouraging me to visualise and achieve a better sense of work-life balance'.

'My coaching sessions with Colette were fantastic - really got me to reflect on challenges at the time and worked with me to develop effective and achievable strategies. I was in a particularly bad space, both due to internal and external factors, and the coaching sessions allowed me to create my own ladder out of it, and take steps that I'd previously been holding myself back from. A year on, and the pay-off is self-evident!'
