I felt really seen, understood and taken seriously.
Before working with you I was worried that my experiences wouldn’t count as ‘trauma’ and I wasn’t sure if I should go ahead and invest or just keep getting by. I am so glad I made the step to work with you. From our first consultation call, you were so attentive and gentle in our conversation. I felt really seen, understood and taken seriously. I was also worried that I wasn’t who you would ‘normally’ work with but your skills are useful for anyone willing to engage at any stage of life in improving their relationship with themselves and their past and embracing the potential of their future.
The biggest wins for me have been working through releasing the heaviness of difficult past situations.
I can’t believe that I can now look back in a really neutral way and feel peaceful. I am so happy that I made the commitment, 6 months on we have covered so many areas of my life and work and I am so grateful for our time together! If even a small part of you is whispering to take the leap, do it.
You will uncover more than you came with, shine a light on patterns which are impossible to reflect on alone and the long-term benefits are truly life-enriching.

I would describe your coaching as Insightful, Safe and Surprisingly nourishing!
Discussing a seemingly ordinary topic in this coached, curious way uncovers layers of thoughts and feelings that often explain why I have done things, or responded in a particular way for years.
You hold the space with ultimate compassion and respect, many secrets and shame inducing thoughts or action are discussed and I never feel judged.
To be heard and guided as you are able to do for me, in our coaching sessions, allows me to let go of some of the painful debilitating beliefs, responses and reactions that have plagued me for decades.

Your coaching is life-changing.
I now see my life through a different lens, a more compassionate, supportive point of view.
The sessions with you are like having a cheerleader in my corner, encouraging me to take steps forward, helping me to stop and celebrate the little wins as I go along and then motivating me to move toward the bigger picture of fully embracing the authentic life I am choosing to lead.
I feel heard, seen and valued at the sessions, which is like gold dust.
K.S., Freedom from Trauma Client, Poole
Before we started coaching, I did worry about the depth of some of the experiences I have had but you managed to gently hold space to move through those with no judgement - which allowed me to acknowledge, reframe and let go of my own shame and all that that brought with it.
Being coached by you was Easy. Powerful. You held me accountable as necessary and gently challenged me.
Your wisdom is in gathering all the fragments and offering them back to me in a way that I can see them clearly. If you’d like to experience a life where you no longer feel blocked, overwhelmed, and don’t know where to turn, then speak to Nicola!
E.T., Freedom from Trauma Client, Bristol
I’ve absolutely loved working with Nicola.
Her professional knowledge is inspiring, she’s entirely unflappable and her personal compassion is just endless. She is so relatable, kind, funny and always reflects back what we know deep down but don’t have the perspective to recognise at the time. She’s a wonderful person and her self compassion program has been a huge help both personally and professionally.
She is THE go-to coach to help you find self-compassion and live a more peaceful life. I couldn’t recommend Nicola and her work highly enough.
K.M., Freedom from Trauma Client, UK
I am so excited for the journey - thinking about it truly makes my heart sing, I never thought I'd be this excited about something.
I know this would never be possible without you and your programme. When I look at how much I achieved in the past 6 months I almost can't believe it!
A.S., Freedom from Trauma Client, UK
I feel that had I not committed to the programme, I could have easily fallen into the depths of anxiety and overwhelm in the current circumstances.
I have appreciated your organised approach, professionalism, respect, patience, wisdom, time management and efficiency on calls, and prompt email support. Your kindness is second to none, which I value greatly.
I am so grateful to have had this experience, and know that the benefits will be life-long.
S. G., Freedom from Trauma Client, UK
When I met you, I knew that you had all the qualities needed to help me.
You have the right mixture of compassion, expertise/qualifications and honestly needed for this kind of work. I knew I could trust you to have my best interests at heart.
I can't thank you enough for all your encouragement and guidance with my new business venture.
I recommend your coaching to everyone!

Empowered & positive
You have an amazing ability to unpick my thoughts and feelings and give them meaning and purpose. I feel empowered, positive and more in control after our sessions.
E.H., Easeful Leadership Programme, UK
Working with you has been one of the most valuable and transformational experiences.
Although we largely focus on work related topics, the positive impacts of what I have learned and discovered have trickled into all areas of my life. The biggest changes I have experienced have been in the areas of boundary setting, productivity and time management, self compassion and acceptance.
Your calm, supportive and compassionate demeanor, as well as your experience in the medical and entrepreneurial fields have hugely supported my growth and learning and I am sure I will carry this with me for years to come.
Thank you, Nicola for the wonderful work you do, the world needs it!
D.S., Easeful Leadership Programme, UK/Bahrain
It has been life-changing for me.
I genuinely feel that it came at a time when I knew I needed something more in my life but didn’t know what that was. My friends and close family have noticed a change in me and commented on how much calmer and happier I am.
I enjoyed the support of the rest of the group (ironic given this was one of my main concerns before starting the programme!) and I valued your calm, inclusive coaching style.
