Hello, I’m Lucy
I am an emotional wellbeing coach. I work with children, adults and families who wish to take control of their feelings. I am a fully trained NLP Practitioner and an Ollie Coach.
I use a combination of techniques and fun exercises which will allow you to focus on how you are feeling.
I have always been fascinated by the power of talking in a therapeutic setting and I spent many years reading and absorbing anything I could on the subject. In my early twenties I studied person centred counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy but my career changed direction and my time was taken operating a hotel instead! I always knew, however, that one day I wanted to be able to help people.
My Approach
I believe that powerful change happens when we make time to focus on how we feel. Coaching will give you the space to create that change. I use a blend of NLP techniques and Ollie Coaching exercises. Each session will be unique, working with your personal circumstances. Got any limiting beliefs hanging around? Are you fed up with feeling overwhelmed, anxious or out of control? Is your child finding certain situations difficult? Do you want to understand yourself better than ever? You’re in the right place….
Ollie Coaching
Ollie Coaching is a method of coaching which is fun and speaks easily to children* (as well as the child in us adults!). Our emotions are our superpowers and we learn how we can control them rather than being controlled by them. We discover that all of our behaviour is serving a purpose and the Ollie method helps us find out what is behind what we are experiencing.
This method was skillfully created by the award-winning author and therapist, Alison Knowles. She wanted to find a way to help children understand their emotions, to help them deal with any unwanted behaviours and to give them the tools that they might need for the future. Most importantly, she wanted to achieve all of this in a calm, fun and empathetic way. The Ollie method is not an open ended form of coaching, it is a short-term arrangement that focuses on results and gives you the skills that will quite simply change your life.
