work with me
I am Abby and I am a Transition Guide and Therapeutic Coach; passionate about the human condition and devoted to exploring and contemplating the realities and truths of life.
I am here to accompany others as they embark on the journey back to the truth of who they really are – to remember or discover the best version of themselves (from the inside out) and to dream and bring into reality the best version of their life – again for themselves but also in their service to others and this planet.
This journey is an exploration of yourself – who are YOU really?, What do you really want? What is really holding you back? I use the word really, as often our so-called rational mind thinks it knows but it isn’t until we look more deeply within, engage our heart, body and intuition, do we start to find the answers and often the deeper questions for which we are searching.
I am a qualified coach with extensive knowledge and more importantly experience of psychology, therapy, somatics, leadership, energy, bioenergetics, grief, trauma and spirituality. I have been deeply devoted to my own inner journey – in order to grow, expand and heal my way into the potential and possibility of who I am, the life I am here to live and the contribution I am here to offer the world.
work with me
I feel stuck or lost in my life and don’t know how to move forward
I am in transition in my life and need help establishing my new chapter
I am overwhelmed or anxious and don’t know how to handle it
I am so busy and am burning out but I don’t know how to get out of this cycle
I feel bored or restless with my life
There must be more to life than this, I’m grateful for what I have but is this it?
I have this fear that is holding me back and I don’t know how to get free of it
I have all these questions but just don’t know where to start in answering them
I don’t have a purpose or sense of meaning in my work or life and I want to find it
Feeling uncertain, lost, confused is not a state we are taught to embrace or lean into as it is uncomfortable and unsettling. I have learnt time and time again that these invitations are incredible growth periods for us and if we can find the courage to work with them we come out of them with renewed vitality and excitement for life. The good news is even though transitions can feel lonely times, you do not need to go through them alone.
My intention as a coach is to guide you into your own wisdom, through practices that I have learnt or experienced, that draw on your heart, body, soul and mind. Rather than jumping to quick fixes, I invite you to take the journey into yourself and your own inner wisdom.
After gaining clarity on your intention we work together for 4-6 months to unpack and explore your current reality, create a vision for your future and then start the journey of making this happen in your life. The coaching journey is individual to you and will balance structure and emergence as we embark on it together; ensuring you leave with clarity, courage and confidence in yourself and on your way forward in life.

I do not separate between executive, leadership or life coaching as I coach the human at the centre of all of them. We contract together around your needs and desires and shape the journey around that.
This can take the form of 60-90min calls (or in person visits if geographically possible) weekly or fortnightly with ongoing work between sessions. From experience this journey of exploration usually requires a minimum of 4-6 months to create meaningful and sustainable change. I therefore offer packages of 12 hours of coaching which then renewed and re-contracted after completion.
For those who want a more accelerated, immersive experience in person, I offer 2-3 days in retreat with me to deep dive into your journey of transition or transformation. Through tending to mind, heart, body and soul during this time you will leave feeling nourished, inspired and energised about the journey ahead and the steps you need to take.
I offer you a multi-day personalised retreat in the beauty and nature of my surrounding area to deep dive into your context and challenge. By spending this more intensive time together in reflection, inquiry and conversation I can help you accelerate your understanding of what it is really going on for you, what you really want and getting your started on journeying towards it. I would then encourage on-going coaching support after this initial deep-dive to keep the momentum of your chosen journey.

Abby taught me to transform everything into something happening for me. Her first question ‘what if it isn’t a breakdown but a breakthrough?’ totally changed everything for me. It gave me hope. I understood that what I was experiencing was a type of metamorphosis. I had to go through this because, after years of emotional pain and unresolved traumas, my body and mind could no longer handle it. Abby helped guide me back home to myself. To learn to trust myself and surrender to the unknown - to leap into the void and become the person who will catch me.
Highly recommend Abby to anyone going through or needing to go through transformation and self growth.

The coaching with Abby completely changed my whole outlook on life, not just work but my whole life. Whilst I have always been interested in psychology I was blown away by how powerful it could really be. It has been such an enlightening experience and has changed me in such a positive way that will stay with me forever. What I love is it is not a superficial thing but everything I do or think now I think about it in a different more fulfilling way. I think the thing I appreciated most specifically about you was how relatable you were and particularly to me. I felt you completely understood and had been through so much of the same that seeing how content you were with yourself made me believe I could be too. For me, one of your many strengths is your intuition and how you could pick up on smallest thing to reveal something so insightful to me.

Abby has vast experience to draw upon as a coach which she fully utilises in supporting others to grow and develop themselves. Her exposure to unique start up businesses but also corporate roles have enabled her to develop a great understanding of team and individual dynamics faced within the ever changing nature of businesses today. She is passionate about supporting others to better understand their personal profile and using that to unlock their perceived blockers within their career or personally. A true professional with high energy and lots of tools and techniques to coach senior leaders to be at their best.

Abby’s commercial, corporate start up, innovation and coaching experience makes her a unique proposition in the team building, executive coaching and performance development arena.
Throughout the six years I worked alongside Abby she always challenged my thinking, encouraged my development, enabled me to assess problems through a different lens and impressed me with her thought processes and motivational skills. I’ve attended a number of courses with Abby as a course leader. In these she was always thought provoking, engaging and focused on achieving the best possible outcome for the attendees.
I spent the first 35 years of my life developing a strong academic, analytical, commercial and strategic mind in my studies and then in a successful career in Finance, leading teams in big FTSE 100 or multinational organisations.
Then after hitting a huge inflection point in my life at 35 I spent the next 12 years coming home to myself and specifically to my heart, body and soul. I have been deeply committed to reflect, study and experience as many doorways into greater consciousness as possible in order to find out who I really am, what I want in life and what life wants from me. This has been the most liberating adventure that I will continue until the day I die and my passion calls me to offer guidance and coaching to others through their own journey of self-exploration, healing and actualisation. Through expanding and aligning our incredible minds to be more conscious and in service of our heart and soul I believe we can bring about the transformation in ourselves and our relationship to the rest of humanity and the planet which our current times are so desperately calling for.
