NLP Master Practitioner, Certified Trainer of NLP & Results Coach.  TA 101 + 4 years’ training and supervision in Developmental Transactional Analysis (for organisational development), studying to qualify as a Certified Transactional Analyst.

I have been passionate about personal development since my early 20’s.  My career began with teaching in the UK and internationally.  On my return from overseas I trained teachers and taught school pupils about the similarities, as well as the differences, between us Brits and people and communities all over the world, through Development Education.

Over the past 10 years, in Cumbria, and in the Scottish Highlands before that, I learned more about marginalised communities and how individuals can overcome challenges to create successful lives.  In that time my career has developed from training management, to trainer and organisational development specialist to business owner. I have developed and delivered a range of training programmes which focus on communication and personal development to create organisational change.

Since my latest learning journey began, studying Transactional Analysis and NLP, I have become more and more excited by the power and effectiveness of one-to-one coaching. I have coached, mentored and supported many people to make positive, empowering changes in their lives.

I believe effective coaching begins with listening, questioning and developing rapport.  You are unique, and it is my aim to understand what makes you tick and what you want from the coaching process and from your life. It’s the relationship we build together that will allow an atmosphere of respect, trust and responsiveness to develop, and will make the coaching fun and effective.

For me coaching is about finding the right mix of support and challenge in a way that makes sense for you and aligns with your personal values. 

I believe everyone wants change in some area of their lives, and we want the experience of change to be positive and empowering for us. It’s my job as your coach, to support you to make sure that the change process is a life enhancing experience for you.

I use tools and techniques mostly from NLP and Transactional Analysis (and elsewhere) to suit your needs, develop your understanding and help you make the changes you desire.

"I’m really pleased I came. I’ve changed my life around. I can now focus on things in my life with a more positive attitude. Jane made me wake up and realise what values are important to me… I’m really pleased with how far I’ve come in the 4 sessions. I’m a lot more confident and happier and I can’t thank Jane enough. I’d recommend Jane to anybody."
