If you’re constantly people pleasing, putting yourself last, overthinking everything, or pushing through exhaustion, you’re not alone.

Many of the people I work with seem as though they’re coping well on the surface. Inside however, they feel tense, disconnected, and unsure how to make positive change without risking further burn out.

You don’t need fixing.
You need space, support, and different ways to listen to what your body, mind and heart already know.

You don’t have to keep pushing through on your own.

If something in this resonates, let's have a conversation to see whether this support feels right for you.

This coaching is for you if:

Coaching is a person-centered process. We start from where you are, setting meaningful and simple challenges. Working together, we move forward in a positive and gentle way.

Coaching is a process that creates lasting change. It isn't 'quick' but it is powerful. Combined with releasing trauma from the body, these approaches mean very real and life changing shifts that stick.

This process gives you the time to explore your emotions and understand them better. Knowing your behaviours and having a better sense of who you are and why you behave as you do allows you to understand, accept and move toward more positive strategies.

If your nervous system is in a state of fight or flight, resting becomes impossible. I will support you in learning simple tools that actually allow your body, mind and heart to rest. You deserve that.

One of the things we find most challenging is facing the pain or fear within. Allowing someone to support you means turning your penchant for distraction and avoidance into skills for connection and compassion.

How I work


My approach is holistic, compassionate, and grounded in real-life experience.

I draw on:

  • Behaviour change and habit support

  • Mind–body awareness and somatic practices

  • Reflective conversation and gentle exploration

  • A deep understanding of how stress, health, and emotions interact

I’ve spent four years supporting people within the NHS, helping them make sustainable changes to their wellbeing and I bring that same care, professionalism, and respect into my private coaching work.

Coaching creates a space for you to understand yourself better and move forward in a way that feels right for you.

Your sessions are:

  • One-to-one (in person or online)

  • Confidential

  • Led by what you need that day

The first session is a gentle, no-pressure conversation.
We’ll explore what’s going on for you, what you’d like to change, and whether coaching feels like a good fit.

There’s no obligation to continue - you’re always in control.

My Areas of Special Interest:


"As a perimenopausal woman with young children, I honestly was barely keeping it all together. Emma supported me in slowing down and making simple yet lasting lifestyle changes so that I could manage everything. My whole outlook has shifted and I am so grateful."

"I have struggled with anxiety all my life. Through gaining a deeper understanding of my behaviours and connecting to how I feel in my body, I have been able to make real progress. I can now feel my feelings and learn from them. It has been so helpful. "

-Sam

"As a perimenopausal woman who is late diagnosed ADHD, I was in full and complete burnout. With Emma's support, I was able to prioritise myself and my own Self care for the first time. This has meant that I am able to function both within my career and in relationships too. It has been an amazing journey. "
