I am a chartered psychologist and health, lifestyle and behaviour change trainer/coach. I can support you to move from surviving to thriving by working with you on your mental fitness, habits and motivation. I also have a special interest in menopause, having worked in menopause research and as a menopause coach supporting numerous women to optimise their lifestyle to manage symptoms.

About

I am a chartered psychologist and health, lifestyle and behaviour change trainer/coach. I enjoy coaching people with their mindset, mental fitness and habits and have a special interest in coaching people through menopause. I am also a mum of two and enjoy walking my cockerpoo by the sea or spending time in my garage gym.

Approach

In our one-to-one coaching for mindset, mental fitness and habits I work with you to understand where you are in your life right now and what thinking and lifestyle patterns are keeping you stuck in survival mode. I then use a blend of education and coaching to help you to identify areas where we can move towards thriving in life.

In our one-to-one menopause sessions I can support you to understand the changes which happen during the menopause, how to access additional support and how to manage your symptoms using lifestyle change.

For example, I often support people with:

  • Developing a thriving mindset for life
  • Improving mental fitness and resilience
  • Developing positive habits for better health and lifestyle
  • Breaking negative habits such as emotional eating
  • Managing your menopause through health and lifestyle change
  • Understanding what’s happening to you during menopause
  • Could this be menopause?
  • Supporting you to feel empowered during menopause
  • How to access support from your GP during menopause
Experience

I have been a chartered psychologist for over 10 years, obtaining my Doctorate in Health Psychology in 2010. I have worked as an academic researcher and research consultant before focusing on how I can support people to live life to the full through health, lifestyle and behaviour change. I enjoy coaching people with their mindset, mental fitness and habits. I also have a special interest in coaching people through menopause, as I managed a very successful clinical trial looking at cognitive behavioural therapy for menopause hot flushes and night sweats during my doctorate studies. I have written various articles on menopause, including blogs, specific features for magazines and for academic journals.
