About Charley

I’m a hope-a-holic who is learning every day to ditch my terrifying fears, anxieties and self-defeating beliefs in order to practice living and leading my bravest life.

About Colin

It has taken me over 40 years to discover it’s actually fine to be the person I am. I’m a person-centred counsellor, psychotherapist, musician, Dad, husband and proud, enthusiastic Dyslexic, who can spell words over 20 different ways.

Catherine's Story

After a period of loss, fear and anxiety I started regular coaching sessions to try something different. Counselling had helped up to a point but I felt it held me in my past only. I can never thank you enough for all your words of encouragement.
You have taught me how to believe in myself again.

Amber's story

I’m 13 and I feel like you’re the only person that really listens to me. Everyone in my life tells me what to do and what I should be doing. You help me work it out for me.

Joanne's story

“I started my journey with Charley as my guide almost 12 months ago. She has a photograph on the wall; the steep and perilous summit of the Matterhorn. That image fascinates me. In the last four years I have gone from a single art lesson in my dining room to being the CEO and Founder of a multi-award winning business and charity…”

Suzi's story

“When I was first recommended to meet with Charley I was sceptical, I didn’t really understand how she could help me.
However after regular meet ups with her she made me aware of myself, the way I spoke about myself and my body language…”

Garry's story

“My Experience with doing life coaching was that I always felt comfortable when doing each hourly session. I always felt I could be honest with myself and just open up about what I was going through which was really rewarding for me as I’ll be honest at the start I was a bit nervous about doing this as it’s something I’ve never done before but Charley provided an environment which was safe and quiet…”

Julie's story

During lockdown I got scared and lonely. I’m 16 and a young unpaid carer. I used weekly coaching to talk about stuff that worried me or I was trying to work out. Charley helped me to believe and accept myself for who I am.

Pamela's story

“Bravery coaching with Charley came at the perfect time in my life as I was really struggling to cope with some personal & family issues. Charley enabled me to focus my energy on my strengths and to concentrate on the positives…”

Jennifer's story

“I am certainly beginning to live a phenomenal life after what has been a very rocky 12 months. Involvement in the coaching sessions over this difficult period in my life has reminded me that I am bold and brave and have all the answers in my head I just need to pause and take time to consider my strengths and qualities…”
