Business and Executive Coaching
Are you ready to become the best
version of yourself?
Let’s take the first step towards your goals.
What is business coaching?
In today’s hectic business environment, it’s hardly a surprise that many people don’t understand exactly what business coaching is.
Put simply, through expert coaching and mentoring, business coaching takes your business from where it is now to where you want it to be.
As an experienced business coach I will help you grow your business, by ensuring your overall vision coincides with your goals.
After clarifying the direction you’d like your business to take, I’ll help you identify and prioritise the strategies necessary to achieve your goals.
Successful business coaching is rooted in accountability.
So, rather than doing your work for you, I’ll keep you focused on the end result and remind you how important it is.
Together, we can empower you to solve your problems and take ownership of your success.
By challenging the way you think and act, you can identify your professional blind spots and move forward a more well rounded, dynamic and success driven business owner.
Located in Wollongong for in-person sessions, with digital sessions available to assist you anywhere in the world, I work with clients both locally and internationally, with additional accreditation to deliver online coaching and counselling.

With the promise of greater lifestyle flexibility and increased income, more Australians than ever are starting their own businesses.
As the number of small and large businesses expands, so too does the demand for qualified business coaches.
Australian business owners are seeking coaches who can help them manage their career and personal life, communicate more effectively, manage business teams and increase productivity, manage time more effectively and more.
The importance of business coaching
All too often, business owners are so busy working in their business to work on it. This is where an experienced business growth coach can help.
I will help you to identify the barriers which are holding back your financial and customer growth and suggest practical ways to overcome them.
As your business growth coach I provide expert, tailored advice to help you to achieve rapid and sustained growth.
To achieve this growth, I will provide you with expert strategic marketing advice and mentoring.
Through self-discovery and behavioural changes, together we’ll set you up for lasting long-term results.
Why is executive coaching so important?
Executive coaching is highly beneficial for any business leader.
As an executive coach I will guide you through your leadership journey by:
- – Connecting you with the right people

- – Providing input in marketing, HR, operations, business development, and the legal and finance departments.

and professional growth?

Counselling
Helps with: Anxiety, bereavement, grief, loss, bullying, mental health, relationships, trauma, stress.
Counselling falls under the umbrella term of ‘talking therapies’.
Counselling gives people the opportunity to talk openly about their challenges and feelings, while being heard and understood. Counselling tends to be short-term and I tend to use solution-focused, existential and person-centred short-term methods. Counselling aims to help you live a more productive life in your own way.
If you are looking to make a positive change in your life, or would like to explore and understand your feelings in more depth, please explore my counselling services further.

Psychotherapy
Helps with: Mental health, wellness goals, fear and insecurities, stress, relationships, destructive habits, childhood trauma, grief, loss, anxiety and depression.
Psychotherapy is a collection of therapies designed to help you with the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that are affecting you. I am trained in integrative, existential and humanistic psychotherapies. This means I work with you wherever your headspace is.
Psychotherapy is more long-term work and gives you the necessary skills to cope with challenges in a healthy and empowering way.
If you are looking to take control of your life and move forward with confidence and resilience, please explore my psychotherapy services further.

Life Coaching
Helps with: Confidence, career choices, accountability, goal setting, relationships, meaning, purpose, happiness.
Life coaching is a broad term that includes the support and guidance to live the life you crave.
If you feel disheartened, disillusioned, struggling with self-esteem, or any negative perception of your day to day routine, life coaching can assist.
Like a sculptor seeing a statue inside a block of clay, a life coach can challenge, motivate, support and inspire you.
If you are looking to return the spark to your life and power towards clearly defined goals, please explore my life coaching services further.

Business Consulting
Helps with: Changing workloads, business growth, training, upskilling, performance management, financial planning.
Are you satisfied with the current performance of your business? Or the people within your business? Business consulting provides objective support to ensure maximum productivity, efficiency and a confident workforce.
As an experienced business consultant I’m able to identify markets, bring niche expertise, action change, provide objectivity, and develop lasting professional solutions.

Online Therapist Training
Helps with: Mentoring, digital familiarity, digital therapeutic holding, feedback, communication, disinhibition effect, written communication, audio and video tools.
Are you looking to take your real world therapeutic skills to the online environment?
The continued progression of technology has allowed for traditional therapeutic practice to move to the digital space, with client lives accessible in a dynamic and modern way.
Across email, audio, and video connectivity, the ability to connect with and heal clients wherever they are has never been more available.
Over the past three years, I have been training online therapists with my online therapy training solutions. This has expanded to become Australian Online Therapy Training.

Corporate Training

A business that stands still is one that falls behind its competition.

What will business and executive coaching do for you?
With the assistance of an executive coach, you will:
- ✓ See yourself and others more clearly
- ✓ Learn more constructive ways to respond to criticism
- ✓ Take full advantage of your strengths and use them to enhance your business
- ✓ Build more productive relationships with clients, colleagues and everyone in your life, and;
- ✓ Define your goals and how you will achieve them
Business coaches form a facilitative, one-on-one relationship with the executives of a company.
This mentoring relationship is a powerful way to enhance your ability to add value to the organisation (i.e. improving profits, processes, sales, etc.).
To achieve value from this relationship, you must establish concrete business objectives, tie the coaching directly to these objectives, communicate these objectives clearly, and establish a partnership between the business leader, the coach and the clients.
