Self-Science Methodologies
I chose to train in well-known methodologies which help you better understand the science of you after having tried many different approaches for my own alignment journey. It wasn’t until I found these proven sciences and linked them to mindfulness and spiritual practices that I experienced deep lasting transformation, healing and embodied daily practices which sustain my ongoing journey of self-discovery and resilience. Today I make these well renowned approaches available blended with my own transformational process to support your own self-discovery by bridging the gap between performance and well-being.

Self-Leadership for High Performance
I integrate evidence-based modalities with depth psychology to support your transformation during life's most challenging transitions with a deep psychological safety. My approach combines:
HeartMath® Certification - Using scientifically validated techniques for emotional regulation and stress management, I help you develop measurable resilience through heart-brain coherence. This provides practical tools you can use immediately when facing overwhelm or crisis.
Compassionate Inquiry® - Trained in Dr. Gabor Maté's therapeutic approach, I guide you to gently uncover the unconscious beliefs and childhood patterns that may be driving current struggles. Through compassionate questioning, we access the deeper truths beneath your symptoms and find pathways to authentic healing.
Process Communication Model® - Business Psychology to understand your unique personality structure and communication style helps you navigate relationships more effectively and recognise patterns that no longer serve you during transitions.
These modalities work together to address both your immediate nervous system regulation needs and the deeper transformation work that creates lasting change.
What is PCM?
The Process Communication Model® (PCM) is applied business psychology which helps you understand your unique stress patterns and communication needs, so that you can regulate notice your stress response sooner and make a more conscious choice to adapt your behaviour to your energy, your relationship or the situation you are in. By identifying your personality type and recognising when you are shifting into distress, you can learn to adapt your communication style, manage stress proactively, and build stronger relationships. This isn't just self-awareness for its own sake, it is practical therapeutic coaching and self-intelligence that improves your decision-making under pressure, reduces conflict, and helps you perform at your best while protecting your energy. PCM gives you the language to understand yourself and others, transforming stress management from reactive to strategic.
What is HeartMath?
HeartMath® was born from the HeartMath Institute which is the pioneering research organisation that developed the science of heart-brain coherence over 30 years of groundbreaking study. They were the first to discover and measure how heart rhythm patterns directly influence our emotional state, cognitive function, and access to intuition.
Through their research backed techniques, you learn to create physiological coherence, where your heart, brain, and nervous system work in optimal harmony, to shift into more clarity and calm within
minutes. In therapeutic coaching, these tools provide both immediate regulation when you are overwhelmed and the neurophysiological foundation that makes deeper healing and transformation possible.
Who is Dr. Gabor Maté?
Dr. Gabor Maté is a retired physician, bestselling author, an internationally renowned speaker and the creator of the Compassionate Inquiry approach to psychotherapy.
Gabor evolved this therapeutic approach over 20 years of his personal journey, and from his work with patients in family practice, palliative care, and addiction. He developed his system further while facilitating integration workshops focused on healing trauma through the use of psychedelics.
“Safety isn’t an absence of threat. It is the presence of connection.”
