here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than the soul can hope or the mind can hide

- e.e. cummings

I hold the belief that people are capable of rerouting themselves to find greater meaning and purpose in their own lives, and given the right support, to be the best possible version of themselves.

My job will be to provide you with a safe space to reboot - where you will feel heard and have time to think. A space where you can explore your thoughts, the paths before you and the options that you can take forward.

In these sessions we may uncover some difficult topics and challenging blocks, however these difficulties can be resolved not just with hard work but often with the richness of humour and playfulness.

about me

With over 30 years’ experience working in different organisations, most notably the NHS, I have developed my skills in leadership and guidance - gaining expertise in one-to-one coaching within large organisations, small businesses and individuals.
I work with those that are seeking a greater sense of identity and direction at the next crossroads or simply feeling stuck in these traumatic times. I strive to support the individual through greater self awareness, to gain a better understanding of themselves by recognising and processing the internal and external influences in their life.
I love working with people; and I relish the opportunity to help make meaningful changes in people’s lives. Together we can make a difference.

Couples Coaching

Relationships can be complicated, never more so than now, and this approach cuts into the heart of what we all want but don’t know how to get in our long term relationships.

I work with individuals and couples around relationship issues, whether these be at work, within the family, friendship or more often within long- standing romantic or other intimate relationships.

Testimonials

Ali’s warm and supportive techniques helped me to freely discuss and process the things that I was finding challenging and that were causing me to feel trapped in my current situation.

- AV, Magic Music

I would come away from each session feeling more empowered and that I had more options and tools to help me "drive my own bus".

- AL, Freelance Artist

Ali helped made me feel completely safe, no pressure, no judgement, all while growing my ability and confidence to talk things through. Things take time and she gave me that time.

How It Works

I work both in person and online. Living in Somerset I have a beautiful warm and welcoming work space both in and outdoors that we can use for our sessions. I believe that getting close to nature, sitting or walking in it can be a grounding experience in itself, which can both invigorate and sooth our conversation as a peaceful backdrop.

Sessions are usually 60 - 90 mins and can be scheduled on an individual basis or as a series of 4-6 sessions. These work out somewhere within 4-6 weeks apart so that there is time to practice and develop new changes.

COSTS

The first Chemistry session is free and subsequent session fees will be agreed at our first introductory session, but I offer a discretionary rate for those on low or no income.
