Psychotherapeutic coaching bridges the gap between counselling and coaching. It combines psychological insight with practical strategies to help you make lasting changes, both internally and externally. This approach is ideal if you want to explore why you feel or act a certain way while also developing how to move forward with purpose and clarity. Unlike traditional coaching, therapeutic coaching recognizes that deeper emotions, beliefs, and past experiences shape our current challenges. Unlike therapy alone, it’s structured and future-focused, helping you translate insight into action. This blend supports both healing and growth.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or struggling with emotional issues such as anxiety, shame, or compulsive behaviours, counselling may be a good starting point.

If you’re looking for structure, motivation, and a focus on achieving specific goals, therapeutic coaching might suit you best.

We can explore this together during your first session — there’s no wrong place to start.

In each session, we’ll have a confidential and supportive conversation focused on your goals and needs. We might explore your emotions, triggers, or past experiences, and develop strategies for managing feelings, setting boundaries, or improving relationships. You’re always in control of what we discuss.

Absolutely. Everything discussed in sessions remains private and confidential, except in rare situations where there is a legal or ethical duty to prevent serious harm to yourself or others.

Your privacy and trust are central to this work.

There’s no fixed timeframe — it depends on your goals and what feels right for you.

Some clients find clarity in just a few sessions; others prefer ongoing weekly or fortnightly work for deeper change.

I also offer courses or blocks of work which suit some better.

We’ll review progress regularly, so the process always feels useful and relevant.

Yes, I offer secure online sessions for counselling, psychotherapy, and psychotherapeutic coaching. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person therapy and provide flexibility and privacy from the comfort of your home or office.

Life coaching typically focuses on setting and achieving goals without addressing deeper emotional or psychological issues.

Psychotherapeutic coaching goes further — it integrates therapeutic insight, exploring the beliefs, fears, and past experiences that may be holding you back, while still helping you move forward with clarity and purpose.
