I was lucky enough to have Catherine coach me earlier this year. Catherine throughout was so helpful, insightful and easy to work with. She very much helped me think through the challenges and plan out next steps understanding my context and adapting the sessions to my needs both in content and logistics. Her mix of skills and styles was especially helpful, I would recommend her for anyone looking for a coach.
Working with Catherine has been transformative. Her background in psychology, combined with her deep understanding of attachment theory, brought a unique richness to our sessions. I felt completely listened to and understood throughout. Catherine allowed me to explore both work and life challenges with a strong grounding in my story, my values, and my motivations – helping me to develop insights that enabled me to reframe situations and to generate ideas and actions to support my professional development in line with who I am. The space she created gave me the confidence to move forward: to overcome inertia, make clear decisions, and take positive risks that have significantly expanded my professional world. Catherine helped me to navigate difficult situations with positivity and agency, and also to discover new possibilities for growth.
Coaching with Catherine was a unique personal and professional experience. She is very skilled in tuning in quickly and getting to the nub of issues. I felt understood but never judged and really valued. Catherine’s sharp insights and the way the sessions made me feel energised.
I found Catherine to be an extremely effective coach, beginning with an unstructured approach that allowed us to explore objectives, and building an open and trusting relationship in a relatively short space of time. Catherine is an extremely attentive listener with a wide repertoire of coaching vocabularies and approaches and the ability to switch between these to tailor her advice to the problem and context at hand. As well as practical tools that I am putting to use in my everyday work, I have gained a much fuller appreciation of my motivations and preferences at work and how these relate to more foundational habits and dispositions, thus affording me a way in to further self-reflection and development.
I had the pleasure of working with Catherine for six one-to-one sessions, and her guidance was invaluable. She helped me refine my time management skills, improve my CV, and provided insightful feedback on my applications. Her support was tailored, practical, and incredibly empowering. I now feel more confident and prepared for my next steps. Highly recommended !!!
Catherine is an outstanding executive coach who is dedicated to excellence in every engagement. Over the course of a year, I had the privilege of working with her, following a recommendation from a senior coach. Catherine is deeply committed to unlocking the full potential of her clients, particularly in leadership development. Her ability to combine strategic insight with a meticulous approach makes her an invaluable partner for professionals seeking growth.
With her mental health background and professionalism, I built a rapport and trusting relationship with Catherine quickly. Over the six coaching sessions, we worked together on specific goals around promotion and NED roles. Many other themes emerged from our in depth conversations, that are helping me in my new management role and in my personal and professional development.
