I’m a specialist career and leadership coach dedicated to helping busy professionals navigate and overcome workplace and personal challenges. Whether you’re seeking better balance, more confidence, stronger leadership skills, or help in other key areas, you’ll have my support at every step. Drawing on my experience coaching professionals at all levels—from emerging leaders to seasoned executives—and as a former creative brand agency producer, I understand the pressures of fast-paced, demanding environments and their impact on wellbeing. My approach is grounded in both insight and practical strategies, with each session designed to provide actionable steps to make real progress from day one.

Specialties:

• Career Change: Navigate transitions with clarity and confidence, finding a path that truly excites you

• Resilince & Wellbeing: Manage stress and maintain energy for lasting balance

• Confidence Building: Cultivate self-assurance and courage to take bold steps

• Growth Mindset: Embrace setbacks as opportunities for learning and transformation

From our first session, you’ll have space to talk openly about your current situation and identify where you need the most support. We’ll begin by understanding your unique challenges and goals, then co-create a personalised action plan. My approach is warm, professional, and genuine, but I’ll also challenge you to step out of your comfort zone, helping you grow in ways that may surprise you. 

To accelerate insight and growth, I often integrate coaching tools tailored to your needs. These include values exercises to clarify what drives you, strengths profiling to enhance awareness of your potential, visualisation techniques to prepare for presentations or milestone meetings, and goal-setting frameworks to support long-term success.

A recent client shared, “Catriona’s coaching style is a perfect blend of encouragement, accountability, and practical strategies. She challenged me to step out of my comfort zone, confront limiting beliefs, and embrace new perspectives.”

Clients who work with me have reduced their stress, gained confidence in their potential, set clear boundaries, strengthened work relationships, and led their teams with renewed focus. Many come to coaching feeling stuck or unsure of the next steps, despite knowing they want change. Partnering with me gives you dedicated, one-on-one time focused on your unique needs, challenges, and aspirations, all within a confidential, non-judgmental space – allowing you space to process your thoughts and see a positive way forward. 

Our sessions are designed for lasting growth, not quick fixes. I’ll encourage a growth mindset and resilience, equipping you with strategies to apply in real-world situations. As you learn to reframe negative thinking, you’ll build resilience and gain tools that extend well beyond our sessions. With my continuous support, you’ll experience meaningful progress—in confidence, clarity, and leadership—every step of the way.

A successful coaching experience is built on trust, commitment, and openness. It starts with a strong, genuine connection between coach and client—creating a space where you feel safe to share your thoughts, challenges, and aspirations openly. I believe that the most powerful coaching happens when you’re ready to embrace change and willing to step out of your comfort zone. Together, we’ll work toward a growth mindset, exploring new perspectives and tackling obstacles with resilience.

I encourage clients to reflect between sessions, often providing helpful exercises or “homework” that bring insights to life in real-world situations. This steady engagement can make all the difference, helping you practice new skills and mindsets, like setting boundaries or building confidence. I aim to make our sessions an enjoyable, positive experience, guiding you toward long-term change and fulfillment in both your work and personal life.
