My Background and Qualifications

I bring a wealth of experience to my practice, drawing on over 30 years as a teacher and SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator), alongside teaching meditation and establishing three successful businesses in very different sectors. My journey has also included navigating loss, grief, the realities of parenting as a single mum and burnout at work, experiences that have shaped my empathy, resilience, and belief in the power of gentle support and restorative work.

My qualifications:

Bachelor of Education (Hons), MA in Dance Studies (Anthropology), NASENCO (Postgraduate qualification in Special Educational Needs), Workplace Mindfulness and Meditation Teacher, Reiki Practitioner Level 2, Certified DISC Practitioner

I've supported individuals and families through stress, anxiety, life transitions, and the challenges of neurodiversity, always focusing on listening deeply, holding space with compassion, and turning understanding into small, practical steps forward.

Alongside my education career, I founded an education-based dance company and an eco shopping bag business, experiences that strengthened my belief in creativity, values-led action, and what it really takes to move from idea to reality.

My coaching style is grounded, compassionate and realistic. I focus on helping you explore what's holding you back, reconnect with what matters most, and take steps that feel achievable and sustainable, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Why I created Mindful Life Coaching

Mindful Life Coaching was born from a simple but powerful belief: when we calm the mind and unlock what might be holding us back, sustainable transformation happens.

My journey with meditation began when I was supporting a close friend through addiction. From there, I witnessed its quiet power again and again - through family illness, parenthood, grief, and the pressures of everyday life. It became my own anchor through some of the hardest moments I've faced.

Coaching came just as naturally. Working with parents and individuals navigating life's unexpected turns, I saw how meaningful conversations, real listening, gentle curiosity, and the space to unpick what's possible could shift everything.

Over time a clear pattern emerged: when we calm the nervous system, deepen our self-awareness, and compassionately examine what's holding us back, change doesn't just happen - it lasts.

Mindful Life Coaching brings all of this together, weaving coaching, mindfulness and somatic practices into a space where you can find clarity, reconnect with yourself, and move forward with confidence.

My Approach to Life Coaching, Mindfulness and Reiki

My work as a life coach, mindfulness teacher and reiki practitioner is built around you and where you are right now.

Each session offers a clear, supportive structure. Together we identify your goals, explore what's possible and turn insight into meaningful action.

I bring a genuine understanding of the unique challenges and strengths within neurodivergent journeys, including parenting a child with SEND. This is something I hold with real care, both personally and in the room with you.

Where it feels right and is agreed together, mindfulness based practices such as breathwork, guided meditation and somatic, body based work are woven into our sessions.

  • I also use DISC profiling, a powerful tool for understanding how you communicate, take action and respond under pressure, when it can add clarity to our work together.

  • For those who'd like it, reiki healing, in person or at a distance, can be added alongside your sessions to further support your physical and emotional wellbeing.

Every session is calm, structured and shaped around you. Whether you're seeking life coaching, mindfulness or reiki, my aim stays the same, to create a space where you can pause, reflect, heal and begin your own journey of transformation.
