About Your OT Coaches

---

I understand the pressures of being a working parent, raising a family, and feeling every one of life's competing demands. I have seen the impact this can have on ones personal identity, goals and dreams. It is common to lose our sense of self and often don't know where to begin, when looking to regain it. This is where coaching can help! 

After a personal experience of work-related stress and burnout, I knew something needed to change in my own life. I worked hard, through coaching, to understand me again. I re-evaluated my values and priorities, and looked at ways I could live a life more closely aligned to those. 

My professional background includes over 20 years experience, working in a broad range of mental health settings, as a HCPC Registered Occupational Therapist.  I have successfully led and developed several teams; harnessing my skills as an ILM certified mentor and coach. Empowering others, and seeing them grow, is my passion and the fulfilment in my work - I would love to explore how I might help you too. 

I am an Occupational Therapist, Coach, Senior NHS Leader, wife, mom and friend.

I have spent much of the past 30 years, working hard, to keep all these meaningful roles in my life, in some kind of harmony. Alongside this, has been a determined journey  to continue to grow, and discover my authentic self, and how this can all align for me.

As an OT, Coach and NHS Leader I have built high performing teams, lead vast transformation projects and mentored and coached leaders moving into senior roles. This I have done with a deep compassion for people who need to use mental health services. I have done this while holding onto my core value base, regardless of prevailing pressures.

Many amazing women have helped me along the way, and I have been able to share my expertise to empower other women to find what works for them and their life circumstances. 

It would be a real privilege to include you in this.
