Hi there, I'm a qualified and accredited life and business coach living in Worthing, by the sea.

I'm a coach for creative people. Or, as my book explains, for 'Founders, Freelancers & Rebels'. I began working for myself back in 2009 and now I support writers, artists, actors, presenters, PR experts, web-designers, copywriters, authors and more with 1-2-1 and group coaching. I love it.

Authenticity

I'm a firm believer in true authenticity... and by that I mean there's no 'fake it til you make it' happening here. We're not faking it. We'll work thoughtfully together so you feel as good on the inside as you look on the outside. I truly believe there's no point in looking shiny in your photos if you're feeling yucky inside. I'm here to work with your mindset as well as helping you with career goals.

My coaching techniques

I have a huge range of coaching techniques and tools to offer you, it's not a 'one-size-fits-all' approach, it's centred on you and what you respond best to. My coachees work hard and also we tend to have a lot of fun. I can work with your teams too. I often run group coaching sessions as well as working 1-2-1 with several members of a team.

My experience

My own creative experience includes two decades in PR and marketing and I've also had my own book published. I'm a regular guest on podcasts and I love facilitating events too (such as book launches, panels, womens' circles and more). I’m qualified and accredited and a member of EMCC and Proud Wellness.

My interests

Outside of my work as a coach for creative people, I love to draw, see live music, dance, walk, practice yoga and meditation and make really good food. I'm a fan of markets and charity shops, and slightly obsessed with ice-cream.

I see myself as part of the LGBTQ+ community and love meeting other queer folks. I co-founded and co-ran the first Pride in Hay-on-Wye when I was living there.

If you think I sound like your sort of person, why not book a free 15-min Discovery Call. Pop over to my booking page. The Discovery Call is completely free, and a chance to get to know one another.

Looking forward to hearing you.

Helen

For me this isn't just a nice word to stick on a website. All your feelings are truly welcome here.

In my coaching I hold space for conversations about whatever you choose to bring. As we focus on moving you forward that often involves talking about personal topics, in our confidential conversations, covering themes which you may not discuss elsewhere.

I am not a therapist and I do not give advice on these themes, but I am here to listen and hold space in a non-judgemental way.

I am proud to support and celebrate your diversity on our coaching journey together.

Themes I have worked with recently include:

  • sexuality; gender

  • feminism

  • race

  • neurodiversity (such as autism)

  • disability

  • parenting or being child-free

  • pregnancy

  • miscarriage

  • loss

  • addiction

  • divorce

  • mental health

Charities

We support causes we believe in including The Ministry of Stories.

I say ‘we’ because Coaching By Helen is not just me (Helen), we are a small team, and storytelling sits at the heart of what we do.

Being able to tell our stories empowers us to show up more brightly in the world and that's what I'm here for.
