Reading, Berkshire, UK Coaching for exhausted parents, adopters and carers

I help stressed out exhausted parents and carers of vulnerable people to reconnect to themselves and their needs so that they can avoid burnout and rediscover what helps them feel lighter and more joyful.

Life can demand so much of us and no one really shows you how to put it all together: living and working

Perhaps you like what is IN your life, but you're exhausted by it all and barely holding on.

Maybe you're supporting children with high needs. They could be birth, fostered or adopted children and all can bring complex needs, whether that's physical, psychological or emotional. You want to give them the best life possible, and it takes you beyond your comfort zone and you're nearing burnout.

Perhaps you're caring for vulnerable parents or a partner and as much as you love them you can feel yourself breaking under the strain of carrying this load. You're beginning to shut down your feelings and becoming closed off.

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

You're as important as the people you love and care for and I can help you to rediscover YOU and celebrate your life.

I can help you find a way through so that you feel lighter and begin to enjoy the journey. Email [email protected] to arrange an introductory call. I select from coaching, counselling, mindfulness and therapeutic writing to create a program specifically for you.
