Coach Therapist. Reading, Berkshire, England, U.K. Coaching for midlife women and those facing thresholds, so that you can design a more meaningful and fulfilled life.

• Perhaps you’re overstretched by endless demands and have forgotten to look after your own needs.
• Perhaps you’re noticing that your old way of being no longer serves you but you’re not sure what comes next.
• Maybe you no longer recognise your life and are ready to make changes.
• Maybe you have a sense of a deeper soul calling from within, but it feels overwhelming and difficult.

I can support you to stop, reflect, and begin to take the steps towards the life you envision, as it reveals itself.

We co-create a space for you to explore what you might want to move away from and what you want to move towards.

Together we can help you to connect to your needs and be more intentional about how you use your time, energy and resources.

Would you like a private space where you can share your experiences, emotions, needs, desires and hopes? Somewhere where you can look at your whole life, appreciate your path, find self-compassion and courage for your next chapter. Together we can help you reconnect to your joy, your soulful self.

I'm Shirley Anstis, a counsellor, coach and 4x author. My approach is underpinned by completing a psychology degree in the late 1990’s and being a BACP registered counsellor since 2007. I’ve also completed a Masters in Careers Guidance at the University of Reading and practiced guidance for 10 years. Together with the One of Many tools, especially the PowerTypes, we have a framework to support you to build resilience, connect to your vision and improve your self-care.

As a parent to an adopted neurodiverse teenager, I am also navigating mid-life challenges and holding space for things that require dedication and patience.

Together we can work within your real-life limits and still support you to become more empowered and aligned to the life you live.

You can increase your confidence so that you can lead yourself and others in a more authentic and sustainable way.
