Transformative Coaching

Working together to resolve what’s holding you back in life – in a safe, confidential space.

Transformative Coaching for Lasting Change

Coaching is about moving forward, setting goals, and creating actionable steps toward the life you want. Unlike therapy, which often delves into the past to heal, coaching is about taking the present moment and using it to shape your future.

I integrate Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and somatic techniques to help you break through barriers and embrace your potential.

You have the knowledge, resources and capabilities inside you, I help you connect or reconnect to them.

Maybe taking the first step to change is reaching out for a no-obligation curiosity call….today?

"My first session with Bernadette was fantastic. I thought that I had a pretty solid understanding of my current work priorities, but working through the different techniques together helped me see things in an entirely new way. In particular, it has helped to bring about a big shift in terms of how I see myself professionally, which has already translated into being more proactive in reaching out to new contacts and being clear around my work boundaries within existing colleagues.

I really can’t recommend the coaching sessions enough - it’s been a game changer for me and I’ll definitely be carrying key insights forward in my professional life."

Unlock Your Potential with Forward-Focused Coaching

A Unique Blend of Coaching Techniques

In my practice, I incorporate NLP to shift limiting beliefs and somatic work to help you reconnect with your body and emotions. This combination creates a holistic approach that doesn’t just change your mindset but transforms your entire being.
I am currently working towards my International Coaching Federation (ICF) accreditation, which is the gold standard in the coaching profession.

Coaching vs Therapy

While therapy often focuses on healing past wounds and understanding deep emotional patterns, coaching is oriented toward the future. It’s about setting goals, solving problems, and cultivating new skills to achieve desired outcomes. With my background in therapeutic techniques, I also offer therapeutic coaching, which can bridge the gap between the two where needed. However, it’s important to note that even therapeutic coaching remains distinct from traditional therapy

Integrating NLP and Somatics for Deeper Transformation

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a powerful tool for identifying and transforming unhelpful thought patterns. By combining it with somatic work, which connects mind and body, we can address not only mental blocks but also physical sensations and emotions stored in the body. This holistic approach accelerates progress and helps you achieve more profound, lasting change.

Whether you seek to improve confidence, overcome a specific challenge, or achieve personal growth, we will work together to create a plan that suits you.

"Bernadette invited me into her space and instantly put me at ease. She used a person centred approach to support me with my confidence and pre interview nerves. She provided a safe space for me to open up about my concerns and struggles with confidence and anxiety.

Bernadette taught me simple techniques and strategies to help manage my nerves for a job interview I had coming up. I stepped into my 'circle of excellence' and was offered the job. I now have tools to help me overcome my anxiety in the future. I strongly recommend a visit to Bernadette."

Curious About Moving Forward?

We will discuss your needs, goals or if you’re just feeling stuck (which is very normal), we can explore how my coaching approach can help unlock your potential.

I work in Worthing and Online and also incorporate ‘Walk & Talk In Nature’ – being in nature increases your ability to be creative, improves focus and reduces stress. As always we work at your pace

My sessions last 45-90 minutes as I prefer to honour what comes up in session and not the clock.
