“Coaching with Tom was extremely useful for my anxiety, but also enjoyable at the same time. In the time I spent with him, I learnt how to find the main circumstances that cause my anxiety, and the feelings that come with it, therefore developing strategies to help reduce it. We explored many different techniques together and I was able to find various ones that I often use when I feel like this. Each session was different and focused on specific things that I struggle with, and the homework tasks he set really helped me move forward. He helped me construct a personal map, and through this, I gained an understanding of my strengths, growth areas, values etc, which has become really useful in my day-to-day life. We also made a plan, including long-term goals and specifically how I will accomplish these in a real and measurable way. Tom was extremely approachable and understanding towards me, and I am very glad I took the opportunity of coaching.”

“I took up coaching as I was unsure about where I was going with my A-Levels and wanted a space where I could generate and talk through some ideas. I found it very useful in that I learnt more about why we might pursue certain career paths and what is most important in life. It helped me focus more on what might make me happy as opposed to what is considered a success. Tom was a real pleasure to spend these sessions with, very understanding and really tailored each session to my needs. I think if you are looking for some life guidance or support to find your feet in Year 12 (or anywhere!) taking up coaching is something you should try - it was definitely a great learning experience for me.”

“Tom has been extremely helpful in finding strategies to handle my stress, caused by my inability to juggle my busy school life. He offered a new perspective on the situation so I could organise my time more efficiently and achieve a more balanced lifestyle. I truly appreciate the amount of time and thought that went into resolving the root of my stress, which certainly alleviated my worries and meant I was more productive in the long term. Tom was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him to anybody looking for a life coach.”
