Coaching

Sometimes you don’t need another course or another piece of advice.

Have the conversation you can’t have anywhere else.

My one-to-one coaching gives you confidential space to understand what is happening, notice the patterns underneath it and decide what you want to do next.

Coaching is a partnership, helping you hear how you view the situation, the emotions driving the narrative and ways to consider to move from stuck to agentic.

There are various packages, from a single session to six sessions, taken at 60 minutes or 30 minutes for a laser-focused session. Enquire for pricing for a cohort.

Coaching pathways

Career Coaching

For people who feel stuck, are considering a change, have reached a crossroads or simply know that the career that once fitted no longer does.

We look at where you’ve been, what matters now and what your experience may be pointing towards next.

My Throughline approach can form part of this work - helping you identify the strengths, themes and patterns that connect your working life.

Leadership Coaching

For leaders who need somewhere to think beyond the immediate demands of the role.

We can explore how you lead, communicate, make decisions, navigate difficult situations and create the conditions for other people to do their best work.

Entrepreneur Coaching

For founders and independent business owners carrying too many ideas, choices and responsibilities at once.

We create space to clarify what matters, simplify what doesn’t and decide where your attention will make the biggest difference.

Mentor Coaching for Coaches

For coaches who want a deeper look at their actual coaching practice, whether working towards an ICF credential or renewal, or simply wanting a thoughtful outside perspective.

3 and Done

Journaling for Coaches

Self reflection really is a vital skill to cultivate.

For coaches, it helps us see more, bring out moments of learning about ourselves as a coach and beyond.

3 & Done is my 45-minute online Journaling for Coaches starting next month.

3 prompts: one for you, one for your client (how to) and one about your business.

One session that goes far.

Nicky unleashed the power of coaching as a tool for support when going through organisational change.

Mentor Coaching for Coaches

Mentor Coaching is for coaches who want to take a deeper look at their actual coaching practice.

You might be working towards an ICF credential or renewal - or you may simply want a thoughtful outside perspective on how you coach.

We listen together to recordings of your real coaching sessions and explore what is happening in the coaching conversation.

We Might Notice

  • your questions and interventions
  • how deeply you are listening
  • your coaching presence
  • patterns or habits in your practice
  • opportunities you may have missed
  • what is working particularly well
  • what you might try differently
  • your next edge of development

It is practical, reflective development based on your real coaching, rather than hypothetical examples.

Working with Nicky was an exceptionally high standard experience. She helped me refine my coaching approach and reconnect with who I am as a coach. She demonstrated remarkable expertise through detailed feedback and relevant examples. Her enthusiasm, professionalism, and thorough preparation made every session supportive and empowering.

I would highly recommend Nicky as a mentor coach.
