Psychologically informed Leadership Development & Life Coaching
hello!
I'm Catherine Jacobs, CPsychol. I specialise in building resilience in relationships and offer psychologically informed 1:1 Executive Coaching, Leadership Development and Life Coaching to a wide range of clients, helping them transform and flourish.
With trust and safety at the core of my work, I create a grounded, relatable environment where clients can develop deeper ‘under-the-surface’ awareness. Together, we strengthen the friends, family, team and community support systems that play a vital role in cultivating resilience during times of stress, transition, or change. As an EMCC accredited Senior Practitioner and Chartered Research Psychologist and Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society, I bring over 30 years of experience specialising in how we build and maintain emotional connections to each other.
Working with both private clients and in partnership with organisations in the corporate and public sector. I aim first and foremost to create a secure base between us - a trusted partnership that combines psychological safety with the right amount of challenge. We both make a space where you can reflect deeply, make courageous decisions, and expand your leadership impact, or goals in life knowing you’re supported and seen at every step.
I offer both 'Getting Started' and 'In Depth' programmes, 'Getting Started' is a one-off two-hour session in which we work together using psychologically informed thinking to understand, reflect on and address your current specific challenges in your leadership role or in a safe and trusting environment. 'In-Depth' is a programme of 8-10, usually ninety minute sessions, taking place at monthly intervals, giving us time to work deeply together and bring about increased emotional awareness and clarity and meaningful change.
"I felt completely listened to, understood and supported throughout the sessions – enabling me to move on from challenging work situations with positivity and agency",

Executive Coaching programmes help leaders and managers pause and think together with a trusted person to gain greater self awareness and increased clarity within their larger systemic contexts and across their roles and teams.
rToday’s fast paced, complex workplace environments can leave us feeling overwhelmed, stressed and isolated. Psychologically informed coaching provides a reflective space to develop and understand what’s going on 'beneath the surface' in leadership oles and across teams and organisations.

Psychologically informed life coaching can go beyond surface-level to achieve meaningful and measurable change. In a trusting and supportive environment, we work together to gain insight into deeper patterns that shape our behaviours, helping you to grow, develop, and thrive.
