COACHING

Coaching for overworking, overthinking, and people pleasing

At some point, we may realise that enough is enough.  We need a different approach, otherwise we are not going to be able to carry on.

So many of us live our lives in a whirlwind of activity, some of it necessary, some of it of our own making. Perfectionism, the pressures of living in a late capitalist society, patterns of approval seeking behaviour, workplace pressures, not feeling good enough, and the fast pace of today’s lifestyles all contribute to creating a life that feels relentless for many of us.

Then one day, something happens and we realise that we can’t, or just don’t want to, do this any more. Here’s where I can in. 

 Together we can:

• Uncover what’s going for you and why you might be stuck in these patterns

• Reassess your new goals and desired different way of turning up for yourself

• Create a strategic practical way forwards

• Support you as you do so, helping you navigate anything that may draw you back

There isn’t a set formula to this as we work with your own particular set of circumstances, but here’s an example of what a coaching journey might look like.

• We might start by looking at the extended factors contributing to what’s going on for you.  Sharing some easy to implement actions you can do right now to improve things as quickly as possible.

• Together, we can then uncover what internal drivers and external factors may have helped you end up like this

• Then we start diving into what it is you actually do want

•  Changing behaviors by creating a roadmap for a new way of showing up

• Navigating other people and their expectations, as well as adjusting your own

• Making adjustments, assessing for warning signs for anything that mighty divert or distract you from your desired goal

• Celebrating successes along the way

   

Tools and support 

I’ll share practical tools to help you deal with feelings of anxiety, stress, reactions from other people, and embed useful behaviours. We will also look at your sleep and how you show up for your own physical as well as emotional needs. This isn’t about fixing you, it’s about tweaking the way you do life.

Coaching programmes

A six-session coaching journey with me is £900. Sessions are typically 2-3 weeks apart to allow time to embed new actions and ways of thinking into your life, but ultimately, we go at the pace that suits you.

I work internationally. Sessions are online, or can be taken in my therapy room in Folkestone in Kent, UK. If you’d like a chat to see if this is right for you, contact me.
