Our happy clients

“I loved working with you! You’re easy to talk to, you listen, you know most people in the department which means you understand the context/ situations really well, while being completely trustworthy. I will be calling on you again I’m sure, as I take the next step into more problematic management cases, or go for promotion to the next level”

“The coaching gave me confidence to believe that I am a good at what I do , I just need to sell myself appropriately.  It really helped to have someone impartial to talk with and helped me also to realise that my current workplace isn’t actually a good fit for me.  Catherine was really helpful and gave me some tools to start getting my anxiety and cognitive thinking back on track as well as practical tools to find a role I am more suited to.  I really appreciated Catherine’s professionalism, kindness and empathy.”

“Prior to the coaching I felt lost and overwhelmed and unable to focus every day in my work.  I was seeking management tools to help me be more organised and in control.  The coaching helped me realise and appreciate that it was primarily stress and over work that that was causing my lack of focus and clarity. Once I identified the sources of stress and that my management abilities were largely fine I gained a new sense of confidence and resilience that I could work through the issues, manage the workload as best I could, bring the workload to my managers attention and that the effect it was having on me was completely understandable.  I felt an instant rapport the minute I met Catherine. I loved that she helped me see the bigger picture and realised that there was more going on that just the work stuff.”

“Prior to the coaching, I felt like I was stuck working in a team where I had achieved all I wanted to and needed to work out where my next role would be, both strategically to progress my career and in the right line of work.  I wanted help working out what it was I really wanted to do next and how to go about getting there.  The actiivities during the coaching, specifically the Leadership Branding exercise, helped me think about what my values were and what I was looking for in my next job.  Catherine helped me to talk through options and consider pros and cons and helped to reinforce that I am on the right track.  I really loved having someone independent to bounce ideas, problems, thoughts around with.  THANK YOU! I was hesitant to begin with based on past experience, but you have been really really helpful, and I now recommend coaching to everyone!”

“Hi Catherine, I just wanted to let you know that I was successful in winning the positon!  Thank you so much for your coaching, it helped me prepare an awesome application and feel really calm and relaxed at interview.  Without the coaching I don’t think I would have even made it to interview.”

“Thanks for the training. I think it might be the most valuable training session I have ever been involved in. You really listened to what would help us all and targeted the information so well. I will be recommending your sessions to my team.”

“Prior to the coaching I felt a loss of confidence in myself and my abilities, and not feeling ‘good enough’ – resulting in stress, doubt and anxiety.  I wanted to re-discover my purpose, feel better about myself and not feel under-valued and stressed at work and in my personal life. Find ways to feel recognition without needing to seek it or hear it from others.  I was so glad to feel a connection right from the first session and think ‘Catherine gets me’. The coaching has helped me to realise that I can take back control of my self-image and worth and I don’t have to keep being this version of myself – I can get better, feel better, do better.  Thank you very much for all your support and encouragement through a difficult period in my life. You’ve helped me a great deal and I appreciate the opportunity. I have learned some important things about myself and have had breakthroughs that only you have drawn out of me.”

“I sought out coaching to help boost my confidence and deal with particular management challenges that I have to date been having to deal with, as well as assessing career options, and deciding exactly what I want to do.  The coaching helped me by being able to talk through some techniques, options, and giving me my required reassurances. Just really good to talk through some of my career challenges/options with someone outside of my work area, in an objective way.  I have been able to gain more confidence, see things for what they are and exercise a more relaxed approach to my situation.  I feel so much more relaxed, and at peace with everything really. The coaching experience was overwhelmingly positive!  You clearly know your stuff.  The process has been very fruitful and I cannot recommend your serves enough!”
