After an extensive search of life coaches I discovered Lesley's information and was very much drawn towards her qualifications and existing healthcare experience.
At this particular stage of my life I had recently been through a divorce, struggling to gain focus on work and lacking personal and life goals. In addition to this I was also managing an underlying health issue.
My initial call with Lesley was very encouraging and I felt more than happy to start my process with her.
During the past 8 months we have worked on various aspects of my personal and business life and the results have been superb.
I was always very mindful of trusting the process and after a few months everything started to fall into place.
I have enjoyed the journey and will continue to work with Lesley in all aspects of my life.
As my son said to me recently "I love the new Dad ... he's great"
Thank you Lesley for all your help and guidance.

I started working with Lesley in 2023, when I was feeling a bit overwhelmed with my new business venture. Lesley was really supportive and helped me unpick the reasons for my feelings.
She was very good at directing me to the places my mind didn’t really want to go too. She has a kind and gentle way of working with you which allows you to feel comfortable enough to explore what you needed to.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lesley to anyone feeling they need some help/support. She will guide you to get to where you need to go. A great coach to work with.

Like many, I wondered if a Life/Business Coach could really help . . . but I was wrong.
Just talking things through with Lesley was like having a Business Partner who listens and gives feedback, someone I could discuss issues and challenges with.
Lesley was not a 'Yes' person giving me just any feedback but constructive and informative feedback. Feedback that helped me make those decisive decisions that I had been pondering. Wondering which way to go, but making sure I was clear in the direction to go.
Lesley helped me decide with clarity as to what I needed to decide with her help and guidance through patient listening and subtle coaching.
Thank-you for your help and guidance Lesley, and as Arnie would say, 'I'll be back'.

I had regular sessions with Lesley for 6 months. In that time she helped me enormously following a long period of illness and a complex family bereavement. Lesley is compassionate, practical and her sessions just seemed to evolve effortlessly as I progressed. I can honestly say finding Lesley was one of the best things I have done for myself and am hugely grateful. More...

The sessions I have with Lesley have helped me in so many ways, got me through some challenges I have been struggling with for years, it’s always a great session and I would definitely recommend to anyone who’s struggling and needs help.

Life Coaching
So glad to have worked with Lesley. Her skills as a coach have been incredibly influential in helping me recognise my value, certainly boosting my confidence. No issue seemed too small or too ridiculous for Lesley - and sometimes those tiny things are the ones that were keeping me awake at night. Talking them through with her, she'd help me to identify why I felt the way I did, and we'd work together to identify tactics to help tackle the issue. When I got in touch with Lesley, I was feeling overly sensitive, quick to tear, and overwhelmed. Working with her both one-on-one and in group sessions, that mindset seems so far away now, long may it last. Thank you, Lesley! More...

We have now embarked on our journey with Lesley and met her once. We feel that we have a good mentor who will hopefully help us with our goals.

Counselling
Since starting to work with Lesley around 6 months ago I have gained so much confidence, self compassion and improved my communication skills.
Not only has this been noticeable to me but to my family and friends around me who see a far more self assured and assertive person who can make better decisions for herself.
After my initial 6 week period with Lesley I decided to keep going with sessions on a 3 week to monthly basis. She continues to help me though any issues that come up and keep reinforcing the lessons we have spoken about previously. I highly recommend working with Lesley and thank her for all the help she has given me.

Thank you Lesley for the help that you have given me over the last 6 months unravelling some long term issues and helping me to gain the confidence needed to make positive changes moving forward.
Alison Klufio
Dear Lesley,
This is to say thanks so much for being my coach. With your listening ear and guidance, you have helped me positively uncover certain areas of my life I had abandoned, you have shown me how to check in with myself and the importance of healing emotions.
I could say so much more, but thank you for doing what you do and for being there.

I've had a couple of 6-session series' of coaching sessions with Lesley and find her to be a highly effective coach. I am someone who is naturally self-reflective, but find that working through issues with Lesley helps me gain insight and perspective which I would not normally achieve. As such, I have found my own personal growth develop far faster with her input. Lesley has made excellent recommendations for directions to explore, as well as having the ability to focus in on key points - my reflections (and thought process) can be "chaotic" and it is helpful to have a guiding light. She is someone with whom I am able to be honest, and who is able to support, contain and work with my personal approach to development while ensuring I have direction that is appropriate and continues to propel me forward.

What do you love most about your job?
I love helping people to resolve their problems. Clients are so brave to ask for help in the first place so to be in a position to empower them to overcome their challenges and find new ways to think, feel and live with a strong and positive mind set is a real privilege.
When people open up and are honest and willing to grow and develop their personal skills and knowledge, the sky is the limit for the changes that can happen to bring fresh and amazing new choices into their lives.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My own life experiences, in particular the journey I have undergone to get from a very troubled place, to flourish today as an empowered, happy and capable woman. The skills, knowledge and qualifications I have accumulated through work and training have supported and enhanced my ability and life skills to be a great coach.
As a child, I was very shy, had no confidence and was unable to enjoy life properly because home life was so hectic and stressful. Relationships were strained and difficult, I always felt unsure of myself and put others feelings before my own.
I struggled with stress and anxiety as a young adult which I hid from the world, but which caused illness and distress.
I experienced work place aggression and confrontational situations that I struggled to handle and saw others experience in the same way.
When I finally got help from a coach and changed my life for the better, I realised I wanted to start my own business to help others overcome similar problems in the same way.
Why should our clients choose you?
I provide a professional and confidential 1:1 service for my clients.
Work with me and you will make amazing progress if you are fully committed to the process.
I am a great listener, very sensitive and kind but also very effective in what I do. I understand how painful it can be when you are in a dark or difficult place and don't know what to do about it. However, you will reap the benefits of getting help to overcome problems like anxiety, fear, stress, depression, communication and relationship breakdown and go on to discover your true potential feeling energised, vibrant and fulfilled. This is such a rewarding journey, although challenging and emotional at times.
I can help you to turn things around as I have an enormous amount of experience in life and as a coach. I can help you to develop bold and positive personal skills including the ability to communicate better, to understand and manage your emotions, to be more assertive and find joy in your life.
I am a qualified coach with a background of over 25 years working in health care environments as a Chartered Physiotherapist.
I really look forward to helping you in the future.
