Welcome

I offer a unique approach to coaching by integrating the power of nature into our sessions.

Maybe you work a lot online, or alone at home, have fond memories of nature from childhood or are environmentally conscious.

Maybe you can’t remember the last time you got outdoors just for you and really took in nature. That's where outdoor coaching in nature can help.

Maybe it’s none of these things, but you are drawn to work in this way for different, personal reasons. That’s where we’ll work together to create your own unique coaching journey.

Accessibility and inclusion matter to me.

Outdoor coaching is not one-size-fits-all. Sessions can be adapted in many ways, including pace, location, distance, seating, online options and sensory considerations.

If you're wondering whether outdoor coaching could work for you, let's have a conversation.

If you desire a different space within which to disconnect, and then reconnect with yourself - this is for you.

Coaching in Nature

This is all about you - quieting the chatter of life around you, stepping into nature, taking a deep breath and connecting to your own inner world.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Outdoor Coaching?

My passion for coaching outdoors with nature began with my own experience of being outdoors with a coach. I was moving through a challenging time in my life, a time of great change I didn't feel prepared for - and my coach took me outside to the beach and to the trees.

Nature has always been a place of solace for me, so combining my long standing connection with nature with coaching conversations brings a greater depth for me. Insight and metaphors richly support our coaching work together.

I find it a deeply meaningful way to work and one which I enjoy sharing with others.

How can coaching help me?

Coaching can help in many ways - whether online or outdoors.

You may feel stuck, want to bring about change or be in the midst of change, feel low in energy or need some clarity about an upcoming decision. 

Coaching can provide clarity and focus to your next steps. It can bring insight and new awareness, supporting you to build on your strengths and inner resources.

What can I expect from a coaching session?

When outdoors, we will meet, walk or roll together, spend time sitting if called to and consider your goals with a focus on boosting and maintaining your wellbeing.

There will be exploration of where you are, where you want to be and what will support you through those changes.

If we decide to work online, we'll still bring the benefits of nature into our coaching session through imagery and metaphor, or practical actions such as planting seeds for your windowsill.
