Trauma-informed relational coaching

Informed by nervous system awareness, somatic and approaches, Adult (Vertical) Development, the Narrative Enneagram, and PCC-accredited coaching.

Based in Aotearoa New Zealand. Working internationally.

Most people who come to me have tried to figure things out on their own for a long time. They're thoughtful, capable, often high-functioning. But somewhere along the way they've found themselves with nobody they can really talk to. Maybe it's office politics, or a fear of losing credibility. Maybe they don't want to burden the people they love, or they simply haven't found anyone with the capacity to truly see them in a way that helps.

What they find, usually in that first conversation, is something they weren't quite expecting. A sense of hope. Room to think. A connection and warmth. Questions they've never been asked before, or allowed themselves to think about.

Who this is for

People who are deep and thoughtful, who may feel stuck in thinking loops and self doubt, and who may be really struggling despite trying harder and harder to work it out on their own. People who are containing things they haven't said out loud to anyone, not because they lack self-awareness, but because they haven't had a safe enough place or the right person to say it to.

People get to surface what's been holding them back, name what they actually need, and land on ideas and realisations that are genuinely their own. People often describe it as inspiring, motivating, and oddly lightening.

How we work together

This is coaching, not therapy. We slow things down enough to notice what's happening, while staying oriented toward clarity, self-understanding, and confidence. I bring over two decades of experience, a wide range of tools, and mostly myself.

If this speaks to you, you're welcome book a short, no pressure conversation to explore whether this kind of support would be helpful.
