Lumiere Coaching

I thought I would share a few things about myself, to help you get to know me before we work together: I have come to coaching, counselling and mindfulness training via a long career in Human Resources, in which I worked my way up to HR Director level. I have personal experience of the pressures, and joys, of a senior business role, and have worked as colleague, HR support and coach to some high performing board, executive and senior management teams. I restrict the number of clients I work with so I can always be at my best for them - and I don't work with everyone, only those who are really committed to making the changes they want. I have a dog and a cat (they don't participate in coaching sessions)! I do mindfulness meditation for around 10 minutes most days (sometimes longer, sometimes not at all) - every little helps, and even a little makes a big difference to improving focus, performance, stress management... My favourite cocktail is an Old Fashioned. I have a strong interest in psychology and neuroscience - particularly focussed on how we can get our minds to work their best and how we can be happy. I have my own coach - because having a coach is great! My qualifications and training include: Workplace Mindfulness Trainer Training from TME (The Mindfulness Exchange) Diploma in Personal Transformational Coaching from Animas Centre for Coaching (ICF approved) Certificate in Small Business Coaching from Animas Centre for Coaching Master NLP Practitioner from Life Spheres Life Coaching & NLP (ANLP & ABNLP accredited) Master Hypnosis Practitioner from Life Spheres Life Coaching & NLP (ABH accredited) Master Time Line Therapy Practitioner from Life Spheres Life Coaching & NLP (TLTA accredited) Practitioner of NLP and Practitioner of Hypnotherapy from NLP World (ANLP & AIP accredited) Introduction to Mindfulness (MBSR introduction course) Certificate in Counselling Skills (CPCAB accredited) BSc (Hons) Psychology
