Laura James

Originally driven by a passion for quality improvement and collaboration, Laura held local, regional and national strategic roles in the maternity sector as a service user advocate, before realising that she could help effect greater change by working in partnership with individuals to unlock their own potential.

Bringing nearly 15 years of experience in facilitation, training, mentoring and coaching, Laura works with you to focus on your development and wellbeing. Having established her coaching business in 2021, she received ICF accreditation (ACC) in the summer of 2023. Among her clients are those in the NHS, teachers and charity leaders and workers.

Working with compassion and curiosity she pays attention to you, listens, observes, and offers a balance of reflection and challenge so that you can achieve the changes you want to make. Coaching sessions with Laura focus entirely on you, what matters to you, what you want to be different, and how you can make that happen.
