90 minute 1:1 coaching sessions - online or in-person
12-Week Deep Support Coaching Programme -
In your first sessions, you’ll start to feel what it’s like to be supported without needing to perform. We’ll slow the pressure, steady your body, and make sense of the quiet overwhelm that success never solved.
4-Week Focused Reset
A short, powerful space for women who’ve built their life on survival
and are quietly reaching the edge of it.
Coaching for women navigating family dynamics, emotional responsibility, and the mother wound
Supporting women across the Wirral, Cheshire, Merseyside and online.
Emotional coaching for women shaped by family dynamics and the mother wound
Most women don’t need more coping tools.
They need to exit the role.
My work combines identity restructuring, nervous system regulation, and 30 years of grounded energy practice to help you stop living inside inherited family conditioning.
We don’t just talk about boundaries.
We recalibrate guilt.
We don’t just analyse your mother.
We reorganise your role.
This is why the results hold.
This work isn’t about fixing yourself — it’s about finally understanding why life feels so heavy, and how to start living differently.
I offer emotional coaching for women shaped by complex family dynamics, often including the mother wound, family estrangement, emotional responsibility, and quiet survival patterns that started early and never let go.
Together, we look at where those patterns began — and how to stop letting them run your life.
The work is steady, practical, and rooted in real support.
Because you’re allowed to want more than just getting through the day.
You’re not looking for another mindset coach.
You want someone who sees straight through the competence — and knows how to work with what’s underneath it.
This isn’t about giving you more tools you won’t use.
This is about giving you space to lay some of it down.
If you’re:
Emotionally exhausted from always being the strong one
Quietly resentful and perhaps deeply lonely
At capacity, but still performing
Snapping over small things but apologising for the cracks
Afraid of what will happen if you stop — but already breaking from holding too much...
Then this work was built for you.
The Energetic Layer of This Work
Alongside practical coaching and emotional inquiry, I bring over 30 years of experience working with energy — as a Reiki Master Teacher, Reflexologist, and Mindfulness Practitioner. I integrate EFT tapping, Bach Flower Remedies, meditation, visualisation, and nervous system regulation into our work, because insight alone doesn’t create change. Your system has to feel safe holding something different.
If holding it together is the only thing holding you back, maybe it’s time to lay it down — not because you’re weak, but because you were never meant to carry this much alone. The competence. The silence. The constant anticipation of everyone else’s needs. It’s not your identity — it’s a strategy. And even the most well-worn strategy deserves to rest.
Untangling Inherited Roles in Professional Women
Many of the women I work with are accomplished, thoughtful and highly competent. On the surface, they appear steady. Privately, they are managing an undercurrent of responsibility that feels disproportionate.
They often tell me:
- “I struggle to delegate without anxiety.”
- “I feel guilty resting.”
- “I take responsibility for team dynamics that aren’t mine.”
- “I can say no — but I don’t feel settled afterwards.”
These patterns are rarely about confidence or skill.
They often trace back to early mother–daughter dynamics in which emotional stability was subtly or overtly placed on the daughter’s shoulders. When responsibility is learned in childhood as a way of maintaining connection or safety, it embeds in identity and in the nervous system.
In adulthood, that inherited role can show up as:
- Over-functioning in leadership
- Hyper-attunement to team tension
- Difficulty tolerating disappointment
- Emotional exhaustion masked as competence
- Boundaries that feel brittle rather than embodied
Surface strategies rarely shift this pattern because behaviour is not the root.
In our work together, we:
- Identify the original relational role
- Separate your identity from inherited responsibility
- Regulate the nervous system responses attached to guilt and anxiety
- Use insight-based inquiry and grounded emotional and energetic tools to loosen what your body has been holding
- Rebuild boundaries from self-trust rather than fear
The result is not dramatic reinvention. It is proportion.
Leadership becomes clearer.
Delegation steadies.
Mothering softens.
Relationships feel lighter.
Rest stops feeling dangerous.
This is structured, identity-level untangling — not surface boundary work.
If you recognise yourself here, a 90-minute Clarity Session is the first step. It gives us space to map the role you learned and determine how to shift it safely and effectively.

1:1 4-Week Reset Coaching
For the woman who knows something has to change — and wants steady, clear support to start.
You’ve reached a point where holding it all together isn’t working anymore. You’re not falling apart — but you’re tired of the pressure, the guilt, the quiet resentment that builds when your needs are always last on the list.
This 4-week container gives you space to look at the emotional patterns that shaped you — and start doing things differently.
We work gently but clearly: looking at where your people-pleasing, guilt, and over-responsibility began, and helping you shift those patterns in a way that feels doable.
Together, we’ll:
- Explore why it’s felt risky to prioritise yourself
- Start tuning into your real feelings and needs — without guilt
- Learn how to regulate your nervous system when overwhelm hits
- Help you stop managing everyone else’s emotions so you can hear your own
- Identify where your time and energy are leaking — and where they need to go instead
- You’ll get support that’s emotionally grounded and practically useful — plus tools you can keep using after our time together ends.
Includes:
- 1 x 90-minute opening session
- 3 x 90-minute follow-up sessions
- Light check-in support between sessions
- Tailored tools or remedies if desired (e.g. Bach Flower recommendations, nervous system practices, reflection prompts)

This isn’t more to manage. It’s space to let go.
Trauma-informed, nervous system-led support with gentle parts work, and between-session voice-note coaching for the moments that feel heavy or unclear. You’ll also get simple, real-life regulation tools like breathwork, tapping, micro-boundaries and reset rituals, alongside personalised embodiment practices to steady your system when the overthinking starts. We’ll track your shifts as they happen, so you don’t miss the progress your survival brain might overlook.
This isn’t about performance. It’s about finally being seen, heard and held.
1:1 12-Week Deep Support
For the woman who’s ready to rewrite what life gets to feel like — without guilt, permission-seeking, or survival-mode decisions.
You’ve outgrown the roles you were trained to play — but you're still living inside them.
This is a longer-term container for women ready to move forward with clarity and steadiness.
Together, we explore the emotional and energetic roots of what’s been keeping you stuck — especially around the mother/daughter dynamic or 'mother wound', family estrangement, inherited family roles, and how you’ve been trained to stay small, agreeable, or emotionally responsible.
Across twelve weeks, we’ll:
- Understand where your people-pleasing and self-sabotage patterns came from — and why it’s felt risky to prioritise yourself.
- Connect to your authentic feelings and needs — and start valuing them without guilt.
- Learn how to regulate your nervous system when guilt, fear, or emotional overwhelm hits.
- Stop managing everyone else’s feelings — and start following your own.
- Tune into what makes you happy and how you actually want to feel and live.
- Build self-trust without needing validation or reassurance from others — especially when it was missing growing up.
- Get tools, frameworks, and emotional resources to help you manage your relationships and stop leaking energy into over giving, resentment, and exhaustion.
- Set compassionate boundaries that protect your time, energy, well being, and choices — without guilt talking you out of them.
This isn’t about changing who you are. It’s about helping you feel clearer, lighter, and more like yourself — in a life that finally fits.
Includes:
- 1 x 90-minute opening session
- 11 x 90-minute sessions (weekly)
- Light support between sessions (e.g. Voxer/email)
- Optional custom energy, emotional, or nervous system tools based on your needs (e.g. Bach Flower Remedies, nervous system resources)
- Personalised reflection, support documents, and progress notes
- Tailored follow-up email and suggested practices or tools

'Clarity Session' 90 min Session
For when something specific is weighing heavy — and you need space to see it clearly.
The 90-minute Clarity Session is where we slow everything down
This session is for women who are holding something they can’t keep carrying alone. A tricky relationship dynamic. A decision that feels tangled in guilt. A repeating emotional pattern that won’t let them move forward.
We’ll focus on what’s present for you — not just emotionally, but practically and energetically too.
You’ll leave with clarity, relief, and some grounded next steps. Not just insight, but traction.
This is a space to name what’s been unspeakable, understand where it’s coming from, and begin shifting it — without over explaining, justifying, or performing.
Sometimes one session is all it takes to unlock a new direction. Sometimes it’s a gentle entry point into deeper work. Either way, it’s yours.
Includes:
- Pre-session reflection prompts (optional)
- 90-minute 1:1 Zoom session
- Tailored follow-up email with notes + suggested practices or tools
- Optional emotional support tools (e.g. flower remedies, nervous system resources)
Whether we continue into a full coaching container or not, you’ll leave this space with greater clarity, a softened nervous system, and a deeper sense of what’s possible when you stop navigating it all alone.

Coaching for Young People
Support for Young People + Families
For young people navigating pressure, pace, and the quiet overload no one sees — and the families trying to meet them with all the best intentions.
Underneath the quiet compliance, the silence, the outbursts, or the shutdown — something else is speaking.
So many young people are carrying more than they can articulate: anxiety, low mood, overwhelm, emotional dysregulation, sensory sensitivity, a sense of not belonging. They feel unseen, even in homes full of love. This work doesn’t fix them — it helps them feel safe in themselves again.
I offer calm, grounded support for teenagers and young adults navigating emotional challenges, identity exploration, social pressure, or neurodivergent experience — and for families ready to support them with presence, not pressure.
This isn’t academic mentoring or behaviour management. It’s not about performance, productivity, or forcing conversations. It’s one hour a week where they can breathe. Where their nervous system can soften. Where they are allowed to just be.
Sessions are 1:1, one hour, in person or online.
Investment: £60 per session (initial 6-week block recommended)
I am DBS checked and hold over 20 years of experience supporting young people across junior, high school, SEN and hospital school settings — including working with refugee children and young people with complex needs. I am a qualified mentor, coach and educator.
This offer can stand alone or act as a gateway to deeper support.
Because when a young person feels emotionally safe, the whole family begins to shift.
We can begin with a free 15-minute call - A gentle space to explore if this is the right support — no pressure.
If you’ve been holding it all — the plans, the pressure, the pretending — and something in you knows it can’t keep going like this, this work is for you.
You don’t need to be in crisis. You don’t need the perfect words. You just need a safe space to unravel what’s no longer working, and rebuild from something steadier.
That’s what we do here.
