London life coach helping you create long-lasting change
I’m Olga Phillips, a qualified UK Behaviour Change Coach working with people who want to find freedom from self-destructive patterns and behaviours. I am also currently pursuing an MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy to deepen my knowledge and develop therapeutic skills to best support my clients.
Before becoming a qualified life coach, I built a career in corporate finance while moving around a lot – living in four different countries across three continents in turn – and having my two children. Over the past 13 years I went through a lot of transitions, including moving homes internationally, experiencing a lot of cultural adaptations, two career changes, becoming a mother, a divorce and a new relationship.
When I settled in the UK eight years ago I found myself lost in terms of the direction my life was taking, but happily I found a therapist whose coaching brought me huge benefits and made me feel supported.
Seeing the transformation that this process brought to my life, I fell in love with psychology and personal development, and this turned into a passion for supporting people and helping them make positive life changes.
In my free time I enjoy staying active, going for walks with my family, playing tennis and reading – both for pleasure and to stay up to date with new ideas in and around my professional field. I also enjoy attending courses on all sorts of topics so I can build my knowledge and hone my skills.
Generally I love making the most of life!
I work in a trauma-informed way, helping people move towards peace and acceptance, change unhealthy habits and build a happy life despite past events. To support you on this journey I provide a safe, non-judgemental, confidential space.
My Mission
I am passionate about helping people find wellbeing. Some of us are luckier than others and have a more privileged start, and the circumstances we grow up in can have a profound influence on where we find ourselves as adults, but I believe everyone has the potential to feel happy and fulfilled.
I have a fun-loving, warm personality and a passion for excellence in supporting people to achieve positive and meaningful change. Compassion is an important part of my coaching style.
My greatest reward as a coach is seeing my clients transform themselves and their lives, whether personally, professionally or both. I love to see you get where you want to be! And as a qualified coach I’m here to usher you through a process that will get you there.
