I coach people who are doing well by every external measure and still feel that something is off. Nothing is broken. It’s just flat. That gap is far more common than people admit, and it responds well to structured, honest conversation.

My particular focus is men. I’m one of a small number of male ICF-credentialled coaches in the North West, and in practice I’ve found many men value a space where they don’t have to translate themselves — where ambition, responsibility, doubt and purpose can all sit on the table without it becoming a performance. That focus is a specialism, not a restriction: I work with clients of any gender, and the approach travels.

My work is grounded in positive psychology. Rather than digging endlessly into what’s wrong, we identify your signature strengths, clarify your values, and build the conditions for engagement, meaning and momentum. Practical, forward-facing, and tested against your real life between sessions.

I hold the ICF ACC credential, trained through the Institute of Coaching Studies, and have logged over 100 coaching hours with 25 clients. I’m also an NLP Master Practitioner and a guided hypnosis practitioner, which I draw on when a client wants to go deeper.

I’ve had my own share of setbacks and rebuilds. That doesn’t give me your answers — it just means I usually know which questions are worth asking.

Sessions run online but can be in-person. They are typically 30 minutes weekly across a six to twelve-week engagement.
