Yvo is a very perspective lady. She was a good listener and gave me the time to talk. She asked questions to take me further and consider solutions for myself.I enjoyed meeting her.

And I sincerely enjoyed meeting you, Meryl:) Allowing yourself to delve deeper into exploring obstacles that presented themselves, took courage, and showed your desire to understand and review some of your current thinking, choices and actions with new clarity. The moment you felt a weight had lifted, was magical. You gained belief in continuing to express yourself with more freedom and honesty. It was pure joy to hear you say that previous therapy had not brought to light what you discovered together with me. I am very pleased for you. Thanks again for the outdoor & indoor time spent together and our spontaneous laughter. With care, Yvo PS And also another thanks you for introducing me to the cafe with the best hot chocolate :))
Lara Jewell
Very easy to talk to Yvo, feel relaxed and not any uncomfortable moments sharing personal troubles. I started with hesitation not knowing what I was going to talk about but within 5 minutes I felt I had been talking to a friend, which made it so much easier and I feel it is the best thing I've done for myself 😀. I can't recommend Yvo enough if you need the help in getting yourself to start thinking about you. More...

It was a privilege to meet you and your family, Lara. And it remains a sincere pleasure to support you. Every time you show your radiant smile, we know it is the moment you have found another technique or solution to one of your self-doubts, anxieties and lack of confidence. Thanks again for your continued courage and trust, not only in me but especially in yourself. I look forward to our next conversations because it is exciting to witness and be part of your incredible growth. Keep practicing and creating:) Yvo
Chlo
Yvo is a wonderful coach and it is obvious to me that this is her true calling in life. Naturally, she is an empathetic person and this shows through her unwavering support of those who need it.
Yvo’s coaching came at the time I needed it the most. I was awaiting psychotherapy and needed someone to talk too. Each Friday, we would go for a walk / sit in nature / get a coffee together and she was the most wonderful listener. I’m so grateful that she was a constant in my life and I hope to know this woman for years to come.
With her help, I was able to keep holding on and begin to talk about where I wanted to be pre/post therapy. Her coaching cannot be faulted and I recommend her coaching services to anybody who needs it.

Michael
After being signposted to Yvo by a fellow colleague who had highly recommended her a life coach, I decided to try a session to see if it worked for me. I've always been dubious of therapy having had prior expensive experiences previously, which I felt hadn't benefitted me to what I needed. However and after just a few sessions, I can speak with honestly that Yvo has a gift and that gift is her natural ability in helping me and others. She is professional, non judgemental and respectful as well as being empathetic and emotionally tuned in with my needs. I work in a stressful career and been through a divorce and recent bereavement and I feel that there is hope on the horizon after my sessions with Yvo. I recommend her as a life coach and she is a friendly and dedicated person who is very well suited to this profession. I shall be recommending her as a life coach to anyone who ever tells me they are struggling with life and need some self help time. More...

As you discovered, Michael: we can feel more in control and live more freely when we realise we have choice. Consciously choosing your next steps, emotions, thoughts and actions has only just begun so imagine the further joy ahead of you! I am very happy to know how our coaching is positively inspiring a fresh approach to how you lead your business and to your style of communication with people around you. You know where to find me, Yvo
Natalie
I honestly don't know where to start except if you're struggling for direction, motivation and general living, then please speak to Yvo. She has lifted my confidence and bought a spark back to my life that was badly missing following recent life battles. Yvo is a compassionate and empathetic soul who has really helped me see the light through the darkness. I really recommend her to anyone who needs any help with life! More...

Bless you, Natalie:) Your natural drive to not give up, to stay positive, to keep your heart and mind wide open, inspire me every time we speak. Thank you for the mutual spark. Yvo

Unforgettable moments I too experienced during our conversations, Walter. Your courage to change certain perspectives and to explore some key thinking-habits still resonates with me. I feel joy knowing that you found our months of working together so very valuable and it fills me with gratitude to have been a part of your analysis of how making assumptions was interfering with your social and also professional interactions. Creating new habits and patterns in your business and relationships, is now in full momentum. Exciting times:) Yvo
What do you love most about your job?
What I love most about my work is the unique co-operation with each of my clients. It is our teamwork that creates results, every time and this is truly awe-inspiring.
Unforgettable moments are when I witness my clients experiencing the 'magic' of our co-operation: when a key insight is gained and from it follows clarity, motivation and direction.
These are the moments when self-empowerment becomes tangible and visible.
I also love that my service is centered around values of honesty, joy, trust and growth because when my clients commit to creating what they want together with me, they show personal courage and positive self care.
All my clients gain increased confidence, accountability, pride, joy and achievement.
This is why I love my work.
This is also why I work with love for what I do and with genuine care for my clients.
Together we change lives: their lives and the lives of those around them.
What inspired you to start your own business?
The realisation that my lifelong passions and strengths for connecting, motivating, guiding and empowering people of all ages could be my profession.
I feel gratitude for the fact that my long career in education has given me valuable experience across Early Years, Primary, Secondary and Six Form and beyond.
It also has given me a vast amount of knowledge and understanding of not only the students and their lives, but also of the many adults, carers and families connected to the school communities I worked in.
When illness caused me to stop my career in education, a door to life coaching opened naturally.
I felt like I had come fully home to myself.
Supporting people with living their most happy lives, is the most rewarding experience I receive every day.
Why should our clients choose you?
My clients choose me because they feel, hear and see that I genuinely work with a heart.
They know I have their whole wellbeing at the centre of their time with me.
They also know that we achieve their desired results, whether these are personal, professional, emotional or social.
They trust that our joint reflection and questioning of their thinking, mindsets, patterns and behaviours, is to lead them to:
full potential, clarity and direction,
the source of an obstacle and the managing after,
full learning and growth,
more strength, pride and joy.
They enjoy our creative and efficient co-operation whilst they appreciate my encouraging and calming work style, energy and presence.
My clients respect that from the very start: I follow and they lead.
This means that if booking one session at a time feels best for my client, then that is what we do.
I do not sell my service.
My clients buy outcomes and results.
I feel proud to be able to say that each of my clients is confident and happy with the investment they make to improve their own lives.
They invest in themselves, their present and their future.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I provide services online and over the phone, e.g. Zoom, Signal, Facetime and WhatsApp.
I also offer in person conversations to clients who live within an approximate 30-minute radius of my location.
Some of my local clients choose an indoor location where they feel comfortable, others love to meet at an outdoor location where we can sit and walk whilst we talk, and again others do a mix of both: indoor and outdoor.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I keep informed about Covid-19.
I never put the health of my clients at risk.
I make sure my clients can feel safe from Covid-19 by offering online and telephone (video or voice call) conversations.
With my clients who prefer meeting face-to-face, I wear a facemask when my client requests this and I can also work from a physical distance my client feels safe and comfortable with.
I also meet outdoors.
As my service is tailored to personal needs, I invite my clients to let me know how I can make them feel safe and secure at any given time.
Only when they feel safe, secure and looked after can their coaching successes be maximised and optimised.
Will working with me work for you?
My life coaching conversations help and benefit everyone: families, couples, adults, teenagers, adolescents and children.
This is why you too will gain and benefit from working together with me.
Life knows ups and downs.
Emotional, intellectual and physical blockages can hinder how you enjoy your life, make the most of your experiences and build on your progress.
Focused talking and reflecting with me about what concerns you or holds you back in being where you want to be, will improve your way of living, thinking, working and acting.
With every insight you gain, you will notice that you start living your life more consciously and confidently. And simultaneously this will make you feel more happy.

Talk and think your way to your desired results.
Because each of my clients's wishes, needs, queries and situations are unique, I do not ask you to 'sign up' for a minimum number, nor long term commitment.
You, like each of my past and current clients, will decide the number of your conversations, their frequency, method and location.
Simple and true: with more conversations, follow more positive developments, achievements and outcomes.
And as you discover how my life coaching support works, you will also discover how enjoyable, effective and efficient the process is,.
You are guaranteed to create meaningful and permanent changes and improvements in your life.
So the when/where/how of your support depends on what you want - for example:
single conversation/s,
regular conversations,
longer periods of time (3 , 6 or 12 months),
weekly or fortnightly,
online or in person,
indoors or outdoors.
Good to know:
I support many clients who combine their counseling, therapy and other well-being commitments with my coaching.
The main reason for their decision to do so is that they usually achieve faster, come to new insights, find results and solutions quicker.
What can you expect from a conversation with me?
During our conversations, you will talk about what you need or want support with.
You will also describe what you want to achieve.
Some clients clearly know their intention or goal, others feel overwhelmed or not sure. It does not matter: we explore together and you will achieve.
My role is to keep you feeling safe, at ease, supported, understood and encouraged.
Even when you are finding it hard to express yourself, or to dig deeper: you can rely on me to empathically encourage you with my skillful listening, observing and questioning. I will you get you there where you want to be.
Each session will go at the pace you set and will cover the content you choose.
In summary: I will help you achieve what you desire. You will come to see your choices with clarity. And then you will take your next step confidently.
Look forward to experiencing and celebrating life-enhancing moments each time we work together.
Ask away.
Whether you feel curious, sceptical or certain about life coaching, I invite you to talk with me.
My initial calls are free. My focus is you.
And if you have questions: ask away.
The first time we talk is for you to discover the results my support can give you and to decide whether you want us to work together.
When you decide you want to work with me, we will talk in more detail about the number and frequency of your coaching conversations, the location, pricing, our Coaching Agreement and how you can make payments.
Once everything is clear to you, you can sign our Coaching Agreement and before we meet I will email you an invoice.
I will not rush you.
I will not persuade you.
I will not tell you what to do.
The success of your coaching conversations relies on an efficient and trusting professional relationship between you and me.
When you achieve your desired reults, you will feel proud, confident and happy to have invested time and money in yourself, your health, wealth, choices and life.
To support my clients as well as I can, I offer weekday, weekend from morning 'til evening coaching conversations.
To help you plan and budget, I have listed my fees and your choices of my services in 'Will working with me work for you'.

Each conversation is between 60 to 90 minutes long.
You lead, I follow.
Improving your physical, mental and emotional health guarantees creating your greatest wealth. And it also leads to feeling truly yourself and to enjoying your life every day.

My daily passion is to be present for my clients.
For this reason, I do spend much time on social media.
