Personal coaching
There’s never been so many resources readily available for personal growth and healing – so why are so many people feel stuck or unable to achieve their goals? Wisdom teachings through the ages point to a missing piece; what we are looking for is already inside us. We can use our inner discernment to find what will be of most benefit to us at every stage. Insightful understanding comes from a quietening our mind to access new ideas and more helpful perspectives. Then we can use our intellectual understanding to take the practical steps.
The process of change is very individual – everyone has their own life experience, mind-set and beliefs – and coaching explores what works for you. My approach includes increasing self-awareness; exploring inner dialogue; state change; energy awareness; perspectives; practical exercises; and integrating new resilience-building practices. I also supply written materials and recommend resources, when appropriate.
Book a one-to-one session
Sessions are one hour long. Currently, all coaching is via phone/audio link or video link as required. I usually recommend at least 4 sessions over 4-6 weeks to enable people to absorb insights, take action and experience the results.
If you’d like a free introductory chat first, you can also book one of those.
“After some years of difficulties and major changes, I was feeling lost and confused about my life's direction and meaning. Sophie provided a structure for me to re-evaluate myself and look for the way forward. She also provided the motivation and encouragement for me to take the necessary steps for a happier life. With her warmth and empathy, she has really made a difference to the way I view myself and in supporting positive changes.”

Coaching Courses
The small-group courses offer an opportunity for positive life change in a friendly, relaxed and supportive environment. They include a range of proven techniques and tools, insights from neuroscience and psychology research, mindfulness, helpful exercises, group discussion and more. Limited to six participants – so there is more time for each person to have their specific goals or challenges addressed. Materials (exercise sheets, resources etc) will be sent to each participant ahead of the session. These courses will now be offered online.

“I have have found working with Sophie to be enormously helpful and inspirational for accelerating personal change. Our sessions have helped to build my resilience, appreciation of my strengths, shift unhelpful patterns, focus more on positive thinking and outcomes, and transform my approach for addressing challenges in relationships (both family and at work). Sophie injects so much warmth, enthusiasm, wisdom, life experience, practical tips as well as fun into our sessions, and follows up with very thoughtful resources, tools and insights to help further motivate and encourage you on your own path.”
