Hi, I'm Andrea, compassionate coach and founder of The Phoenix Within. I began my coaching career over a decade ago through my work in education and through supporting some of our most vulnerable families to make the changes they needed to turn their lives around following domestic abuse, trauma, substance misuse and neglect.

I believe in the importance of valuing people of celebrating all that is human, our strengths and our flaws…that’s why all my coaching is rooted in compassion and kindness and a belief in you as my client.

That doesn’t mean that coaching is easy or soft, it takes real work and conscious commitment. One of the most amazing things about coaching is the power of the shifts it can make. It’s like being in a Pilates class, how one little movement can cause so much pain is beyond me, it’s the same with coaching, using the right techniques and knowing ‘where to tap’ can create significant change, and because it is rooted in your unconscious, like a good Pilates session, the effects continue to make positive change long after the session.

The science of coaching

Following the loss of my husband, I was stuck in a cycle of grief and whereas counselling helped for a time, it felt like I was re-living the trauma over and over again. I wanted to live, not re-live and this is when I discovered the power of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) alongside traditional coaching techniques.

NLP is rooted in science and linguistics and is based on modelling excellence.

NLP combines theories, models and techniques from a range of scientific and esoteric fields, to create accessible, understandable ‘tools’ which can be used by individuals, teams and organisations and applied in a variety of contexts to improve outcomes, support wellbeing and create change” ANLP (Association for NLP)

What I really like about NLP is that it works, you will experience real shifts in every single coaching session you have. It's incredibly effective, and has lasting impact. You will gain so much insight into how you experience and interpret the world and how this impacts your decision making and interactions. You will learn tools and techniques for life that will help you navigate whatever challenges you face.

Not only will you reap the benefits, the positive changes will ripple out into the lives of all the people you touch and that is a real gift.

I am really looking forward to working with you, every person is different, every journey is different and the outcome is always beyond expectation.
