Wellbeing for Professionals · A coaching programme

You’re functioning well.
But it could feel better
than this.

A structured, evidence-based positive psychology coaching programme for professionals who want more clarity, energy, resilience and meaning — built from where you are now, not from crisis.

Is this you?

This programme is for people
who want to thrive —
not just cope.

You don’t have to be in crisis to want more. This programme meets you wherever you are — stuck, stretched, or simply ready to grow.

01
The busy professional
You’re in a demanding role and performing well on paper — but it doesn’t always feel sustainable. You want better control over your time, energy and emotional reactions.
“I’m doing well, but it doesn’t always feel this way on the inside.”
02
The person who feels stuck
You sense you’re not where you want to be but aren’t sure what needs to change. You feel like you’re going through the motions or have hit a plateau you can’t shift.
“I’m not unhappy, but something’s missing and I don’t know what it is.”
03
The high achiever who wants more
You’re already functioning well but want to go further in a healthy way — with more self-awareness, more alignment between your values and your daily life, and resilience built before problems escalate.
“I don’t need therapy. I want to understand myself better and grow.”
04
The person ready for change
You want a more fulfilling, intentional life. More meaning, better habits, stronger relationships — and a practical understanding of how to build them, grounded in real evidence.
“Life is fine. But I know it could be better — and I’m ready to do something about it.”
The programme

Four stages.
One coherent
journey.

Each stage builds on the last — from building self-awareness and strengths, through emotional resilience and meaning, to sustainable habits and a personal wellbeing plan you keep long after our final session.

The pace is yours. Most clients complete the programme over three to five months, with sessions scheduled to fit around your life and work.

Connecting change to deeper purpose and social context

  • — Identify the three to five practices and insights with the greatest ongoing impact

A coherent picture of your progress and a tailored, realistic plan to maintain and build on it beyond coaching.
What shifts

By the end of the programme,
you will feel genuinely different.

Clarity about yourself and your direction
A deeper understanding of your values, strengths and what matters most — and a clearer sense of where you’re heading and how you want to live and work.
Stronger wellbeing and real resilience
Practical tools to manage stress, setbacks and difficult emotions. More balance, steadiness and genuine capacity to cope with pressure and change.
A kinder, more constructive inner voice
Less harsh self-criticism. Greater self-compassion that supports growth rather than holding you back — especially when things don’t go as planned.
Better use of your strengths every day
Concrete ways to use what you naturally do well, at work and at home. More energy, engagement and a sense of being in the right place doing the right things.
Improved relationships and communication
Skills to listen, respond and give feedback more constructively. Stronger, more supportive connections with the people who matter most in your life.
Sustainable habits you can actually keep
A simple, personalised wellbeing plan built around small, repeatable practices — not quick fixes — that make a long-term difference to how you feel and function.
The evidence base

Grounded in research.
Applied to real life.

Every tool and exercise in this programme has a peer-reviewed evidence base. This is not motivational advice or generic wellness guidance — it is the science of what genuinely helps people flourish, applied with precision to your specific situation.

PERMA Model

Seligman’s validated wellbeing framework — Positive emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning and Accomplishment — provides the backbone of the programme and the measure of progress.

VIA Character Strengths

Peterson & Seligman’s classification of 24 universal human strengths gives you a precise, evidence-based language for what you do naturally well — and how to use it more deliberately.

Broaden-and-Build Theory

Fredrickson’s research demonstrates that positive emotions don’t just feel good — they actively expand thinking, build resilience resources and create the upward spiral that sustains flourishing.

Self-Compassion Research

Neff’s work on self-compassion shows it is consistently associated with greater wellbeing, resilience and motivation — and supports learning and recovery far more effectively than self-criticism.

Positive CBT & Reappraisal

Cognitive reappraisal and positive cognitive behavioural approaches help develop more helpful thinking patterns and more adaptive responses to adversity, setback and uncertainty.

Implementation Intentions

Gollwitzer’s research on if-then planning shows it dramatically increases the likelihood of following through on goals — turning good intentions into real, sustainable behaviour change.

What clients say

“I came in feeling like I’d lost the thread of what mattered. By the end I had a clearer sense of myself, my values and what I actually wanted — and practical tools to keep building on that every day.”

Senior Professional, Financial Services · Programme graduate

Your coach

Academic rigour.
Real-world experience.

I know what it feels like to perform well on the outside while something quieter is going on inside. I spent over 20 years in senior leadership roles across finance and investment management — and I understand the particular pressures that come with demanding professional environments.

That’s why I became a positive psychology coach — and why the approach I bring is grounded in both rigorous science and genuine human understanding. I don’t offer quick fixes or generic advice. I offer a structured, evidence-based process tailored precisely to where you are and what you need.

Every session is built around your specific situation, goals and strengths — not a one-size-fits-all framework.
