About me
What do I do?
I offer coaching to support individuals and couples on their step parent and blended family journeys.
I am a qualified coach, emotional intelligence practitioner and experienced change professional of over 10 years alongside being a step parent. I have a variety of skills, accreditations and life experience, enabling me to offer a valuable and personable coaching service.
Why might you need step parent or blended family coaching?
As separated parents you might be seeking to establish a contact schedule that works respectively for the both of you.
As a step parent you might be finding it difficult to understand your role and how you fit in to the family unit.
As a step parent you might be struggling with the resentment attached to new sacrifices and new responsibilities that you are not equipped for.
As a step parent you might be battling with a range of feelings because your efforts are seemingly undervalued, unnoticed or unappreciated.
As a step parent you might be experiencing stark realisations and a larger-than-anticipated expectations gap, which you need to work through.
As a partner you might be feeling ill-equipped to support the step parent in their new role and in helping them to overcome any anxieties that they face.
As a partner you might prioritise the feelings of the step parent or the children over your own, meaning that your own emotional needs fall by the wayside.
As a couple you might be finding communication with each other challenging and are unable to resolve small or bigger conflicts in, for example, parental styles.
As a blended family you might need a helping hand with relationship building, creating an inclusive environment and balancing or establishing a new family dynamic.
What you can expect from me:
A safe and empathetic space to explore emotive and challenging topics, which are personal to you.
Time spent understanding the problem as an alternative to admiring it.
Support in embracing and pursuing change.
Access to a rich toolkit of models, frameworks and approaches to support you and your partnership.
A bespoke plan to realise your goals together with accountability for your actions in achieving those goals.
Respectful and constructive challenge where appropriate in order to arrive at alternative perspectives and improve resilience.
