Hello, and welcome to my coaching page 👋

I'm Charlotte and a little about me. I'm fiercely passionate about motherhood and womanhood, and my clients usually fall into the experience of one or both of the above.

I've worked with trauma and attachment for the past 14 years after I completed my psychology degree. When I was heavily pregnant with my daughter in 2014, I added a Masters in Psychodynamics to the mix.

In 2021, I decided to start the much coveted Masters in Integrative Counselling and Coaching, which is directed by the innovative personal consultancy model. This allows clients to move between counselling and coaching depending on what they need at that moment. In coaching, my style certainly incorporates ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) as I've seen time and time again real results for mothers experiencing anxiety for whatever reason. Postnatal anxiety can be derailing, and many mothers may feel that they lose sight of who they are or what is important to them.

I am a great believer in self compassion and often ask my clients to check their self-talk and reflect on the way they speak to themselves. As women, we often don't give ourselves enough credit for the juggling we do on a daily basis.

My coaching style is personable and understanding. I love to see other women reaching their goals. Attachment is my specialism, so how we relate to others is hugely important, and I always seek to be very client centred. The most important person in our sessions is you! I certainly provide a space that is all about you and what you want to achieve. It could be you want to brainstorm and discover your next steps or you have a specific goal in mind. Career or personal, we can work together to get the transformation that you deserve 💃

So that's me, if you like the sound of what you've read, I'd love to work with you 🌟
