Bridging the solution-focused approach of coaching with the therapeutic depth that fosters deep.

IN THIS ARTICLE

There are moments in life when even the most capable, self-aware people find themselves standing at a crossroads – uncertain about what comes next. If you are searching for a life coach Surrey, therapeutic coaching can help you find clarity and confidence in the decisions that feel right for you.

As a life coach in Surrey and online across the UK, I work with people who want more than surface-level motivation. They are seeking lasting change – in how they think, feel, and live.

A Therapeutic Approach to Coaching

My work bridges two worlds: psychotherapy and coaching. I’m a qualified Behaviour Change Coach and Certified Addictive Behaviour Coach, currently training as a psychotherapist, and working in a busy GP practice in Surrey. This means I bring both the depth of therapeutic understanding and the forward-focused energy of coaching. My approach follows professional standards, informed by frameworks from bodies like the International Coach Federation. You can read about me and my qualifications here.

Where traditional coaching often focuses on goals and performance, therapeutic life coaching explores why certain patterns or emotions keep repeating – helping you not just move forward, but transform from within. Together, we explore mindset, emotional blocks, values, and behaviours that may be holding you back.

Life Coach Surrey, the UK, and Beyond

Much of my work is with women in Surrey, across the UK, and internationally online who struggle with their relationship with food and body image. I’ve spent years supporting clients to overcome emotional eating, stress eating, and binge eating – not through willpower or restriction, but through compassionate curiosity and behavioural insight.

My coaching blends the psychological understanding of trauma-informed therapy with practical tools from behavioural science. You learn to recognise triggers, regulate emotions, and develop a more peaceful relationship with food, your body, and yourself.

A 360° View of Your Life

Every person is unique, which is why I use a systemic and holistic approach – what I call a 360° audit of your life. This means we look at all the interconnecting parts: relationships, work, self-image, health, habits, and deeper emotional needs.

Rather than tackling one isolated issue, we explore the bigger picture of how everything connects. When one area begins to shift, it creates space for transformation in all others.

Finding Direction Through Therapeutic Life Coaching

If you are feeling stuck or unsure about your next step, therapeutic life coaching offers a structured yet compassionate space to reconnect with yourself. It is not about quick fixes – it is about understanding what is truly right for you and building the inner confidence to move toward it.

Whether you are navigating change, redefining your identity, or rebuilding after burnout, working with a life coach in Surrey or online can help you find clarity and direction. Many of my sessions are held virtually, supporting clients across the UK and Europe who are searching for a life coach UK-wide who understands both the psychological and practical aspects of change.

Ready to Begin?

If you are at a turning point and want to explore coaching in Surrey or online, I would love to hear from you. Together, we will take a compassionate look at where you are, where you would like to be, and what inner shifts need to happen to get you there.

You don’t need to have it all figured out – that is what this process is for. Sometimes, the most powerful decision is simply to start.
