Contact me to schedule a Coaching Discovery Call, or click on the blue box at the top of the page to go straight to my online scheduler – and we can discuss your needs and your goals before booking a regular coaching session in person, or via internet/phone services.
There’s no obligation after that phone call – I want you to have the opportunity to talk to me and ask questions. Let’s work together to map out a path forward for you.
Finding the right Coaching Approach for you
“TE ARA HOU” A New Path Forward
We will discuss your immediate situation and create a framework to support you to reach your goals.
“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. ” – Lao Tzu
Pathways Life Coaching
“TE ARA WHAKATIKA” The Path of Integrity
Once you have confirmed you are ready, you will go much deeper into the resolution of issues, and design your pathway forward. You will build skills to understand barriers to change, and create a goal-oriented framework for making positive changes in your life. This is your time to ‘re-calibrate’, to off-load the crap that doesn’t serve you, and to get a fresh perspective, new ideas and resources so that you go back into your world focused and recharged, knowing what to do. Coaching resources and tools will be provided.
“The nature of life is change. We need simply to be aware of the changes and move creatively with them.” – Johansen and Kurtz
Executive Coaching & Supervision
“TE ARA WHAKAMANA” The Empowering Pathway
In a confidential coaching environment, you will have space away from colleagues to explore your own processes.
The benefits are similar to Life Coaching. You do not have to be at executive or management level but you will be focusing primarily on your professional development.
This is ideal for those who work in an organisation or who are self-employed; you diarise time on a regular basis to tackle problems and issues arising during the week. As these issues are aired, the real truth starts to flow in and new ideas and innovative practices can come forth. This is also an important time away from your colleagues or your clients to ‘dump’ any baggage and load up with solutions.
The ability to step back from a situation is vital to a healthy working life, and central to designing creative ideas that work for you.
David Rock, in his book on Quiet Leadership, suggests that impasses can be resolved by engaging in a ‘thinking partnership’ whereby one person (you) has a lot of detail and information about their situation, and the other (the Coach) has very little of the detail but has a wealth of experience, knowledge, tools and skills for you to use to design solutions. Executive Coaching/Supervision is very much the ‘thinking partnership’ that you are needing right now.
For those organisations working with Multi-Rater 360 Reviews, I can provide one-to-one coaching feedback to managers and staff who are primary participants in the 360 process, or who are managing staff going through the 360 Review process.
“Coaching is a process for development and improving performance, not a remedial exercise.” – Josephine Thompson
Business Development Coaching
“TE ARA WHAKAAKO” The Path of Learning
More specific business coaching, this approach will support you to launch or up-level your business, optimise your potential, increase your confidence and clarity around business development, and provide a step by step programme with specific skills and tools for establishing and growing your business. You create a business that is aligned to your core values and aspirations.
Click on the blue box above or email me to schedule a short call to discuss your needs and to book an introductory coaching session. We will create a ‘thinking partnership’ that will accelerate your success, ensure you remain true to yourself, and give you confidence to create a profitable legacy business.

Cultural Supervision
“TE WHARE PUNGAWEREWERE” (the cobweb) ~ The intricate weaving of cultural perspectives.
Working for or with people from different cultures, with different worldviews and value systems can be rewarding when entered into with curiosity, integrity and openness. Cultural Supervision Coaching can help you gain perspective and develop new insights into issues of identity, the aspirations of others, and working compatibly and cooperatively cross-culturally.

What is the most important thing in life? It is people.
Conflict Management Coaching
“TE ARA O RONGO” ~ The path of Rongo, the Māori god of balance and peace
This is a specialised Coaching methodology to manage interpersonal and organisational conflicts. CMC can be used to prevent situations escalating into conflict as well as build communication and conflict competence. CMC is effective for mediation, dispute resolution and negotiation, in your personal and professional life.
I am professionally trained and certified in conflict resolution coaching, and can explain the detail of this if you wish to contact me.
