Life Coaching
To create what you really want in life
If you have ever wondered how far you could go, this is for you!
Discover the things you never knew you already know!
We are all born with the potential for greatness. All of us. Over time, conditioning and stressful modern living can diminish our shine and we gradually lose our sense of direction and enthusiasm, unconsciously limiting what we think is possible, or leaving us feeling ‘stuck’.
This is psychologically informed, restorative life coaching for making change happen in your life. This could be to overcome a barrier that is holding you back, or maybe it’s about consistently achieving your goals. Either way, if you are ready for change, my blend of coaching, Timeline Therapy®, and Neurolinguistic Programming approaches can help.
Life coaching is a non-directive and non-judgemental reflective space to overcome barriers and reach goals.
Coaching is a chance to take the hand you have been dealt, shuffle the cards, and even rewrite the rules of the game.
With dedicated, professional support, you can feel better and get in the driving seat of all areas of your life. It’s not a magic pill (although it can feel magical!), it takes work, and it can be utterly transformational.
My Job
My job as your coach is to provide the necessary objective, non-judgemental support and challenge to assist you on your journey to being the leader in a life you have designed for yourself.
You are unique, and so is every coaching experience. I use a blend of tools as appropriate in your bespoke coaching process. The techniques and methodologies I use come from a number of evidence-based disciplines including, Psychology, Transactional Analysis, Neurolinguistic Programming, Timeline Therapy® Neuroscience, Traumatology, Clinical Hypnotherapy and Restorative Practice.
Your Job
You will be supported and challenged to take action between sessions, sometimes stepping out of your comfort zone, although you will never be asked to do anything you do not want to do.
It is in action and experience that coaching works. New thinking on it’s own is not enough to achieve change.
Stop now…
…and imagine the difference you will make, and all the amazing things you could use your time and energy to create when what holds you back is gone.

My Coaching Philisophy
Coaching and restorative practice is as much a part of who I am, as it is what I do.
Put simply, I coach because of the difference it can make in getting the best out of ourselves and others. I have yet to find a more effective approach to feel better, improve relationships, achieve your goals and make sustainable change.
It is a safe, trusting, reflective space where you can drop the masks we all wear from time to time, say what we need to say, remove barriers and take the action that really makes the difference.
My coaching philosophy is an extension of my values and is underpinned by a set of beliefs:
- You have all the resources you need and are capable of incredible change
- When you experience dedicated time in a safe space of trust and rapport, you can get underneath the problem, and clear away the barriers and blocks that are holding you back
- You have your own best answers (I never give advice)
- Curiosity, experimentation and action is how you get to where you want to be
- Coaching with a skilled professional who is unconnected, unbiased is the fastest way to get results
Coaching helps you to access what is already there, but maybe hidden by the interference of stressful modern living and the opinions of others. As an integrative Coach, I draw on a range of methodologies and give you the time and space to think for yourself, and focus your attention on what really matters, through insightful questions and exercises.
Why should I choose Sue?
The three most important things to consider are;
- Does the coaching relationship feel right for us both?
- Are you ready to change?
- Is coaching right for your needs?
In order to check this, I offer a free 30min Discovery Call where we can find out, and you can ask any questions you may have.
Coaching as an industry in the UK is unregulated. As such you may choose to be reassured of my training and experience as a professional coach, and here are a few indicators to pay attention to:
- I am regularly supervised to check and challenge my practice
- I am coached myself to ensure my own continued development
- I am highly trained and qualified (through reputable, academically rigorous and quality professional training, not a quick internet course that are so sadly abundant)
- I am highly experienced
- I hold several professional memberships
- Many of my clients have been kind enough to share their own success stories
- The two most important things however, are the quality of the coaching relationship, and that you are ready to change. In order to check this, I offer a free 30min Discovery call where we can find out.
At the end of the Discovery Call, you could ask yourself:
- What have I learnt from this Discovery Call?
- What has changed for me now?
- What did Sue ask that made me think in a different way to how I have thought before?
- How comfortable do I feel with her?
- How clear am I on how Sue may help me to achieve my goals?
Coaching can take place face to face in ‘The Cube’, my private coaching and hypnotherapy space in Oakwood, Leeds, or via Zoom.
