Leading with Meaning

I’m not just a coach, or a therapist, or an HR consultant.  I bring together the best of all three.
As an experienced HR strategist, I’ve worked across sectors to help organisations align their people strategy with business outcomes. As a qualified psychotherapist, I offer psychological depth and a trauma-informed lens. As a neurodivergent professional, I bring lived experience and insight into inclusive, human-centred practices. I work relationally, with senior leaders and teams, offering grounded challenge, strategic clarity, and authentic support. I am a commercial, curious, and deeply committed individual, dedicated to creating cultures where people and performance can thrive.


I offer reflective, strategic thinking partnership pathways for leaders navigating complex people challenges. My work blends psychological depth, lived experience, and commercial clarity,  helping you lead with empathy, integrity, and confidence.

I work integratively, drawing on my background in HR, therapy, and neurodiversity to help organisations move beyond box-ticking and into meaningful, sustainable change. I bring warmth, clarity, and structure, balancing care with commercial awareness, and always tailor
