When your Career no longer fits your Life…
1:1 Career Coaching for when you don’t just want a new job.
You want a different way of living.
I help mid-career professionals navigate change and find a direction that actually works—for their work, life, and energy.
Holistic, science-based coaching, powered by Positive Psychology.
Tailored to you.
You’ve done the right things.
Built a solid career.
Maybe even checked all the boxes of traditional success.
But something feels off.
Lately, it’s not just your work.
Something in your life no longer fits the way it used to.
You often wonder: Is this really it?
You find yourself questioning not just your career, but the way you’re living overall.
You’re wondering what it would look like to do something more meaningful. Without losing the stability you’ve worked so hard to build.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
Meet your coach.
Hi, I am Claudia, a Positive Psychologist and Career Coach working with clients at big or small crossroads.
I’ve been coaching mid-career professionals full-time for six years, with a strong academic background in Positive and Climate Psychology, and a previous career in corporate tech. Our work together will be both psychologically grounded and rooted in real-world experience.
Previous clients describe my coaching style as flexible, compassionate and with a good dose of humour. I can be gentle and reflective when you need space, or push you into action when you’re ready. We will combine visionary thinking with tactical clarity, helping you navigate career and bigger life transitions with confidence, resilience and your present and future wellbeing in mind.
My work is inspired both by nature and science, and I build on the wisdom of our ancestors - both human and from the more-than-human world.
If you are looking for a coach who walks with you in courage, compassion and curiosity, you’re in the right place!

We’ll explore meaningful options that approach your life and work holistically. You’ll begin to imagine new directions and making changes that feel both exciting and realistic. We dream big and narrow it down to realistic pathways.

You move from idea to action with confidence — whether that’s small or big adjustments in your career or life. I teach you evidence-based tools to effective planning and you take concrete first steps towards your positive future!
Everyone has a career sweetspot. It’s that place where you enjoy what you do, your work feels effortless and deeply meaningful. Are you ready to find yours?

Your questions about coaching, answered:
-
Every coaching session starts with you bringing a topic, a question, a goal or a decision you want to work towards. During the session I will facilitate your exploration of the topic, encouraging you to go inwards, inquiring, unblocking, understanding and moving forward. I guide you through the process by asking clarifying, challenging or curious questions so that you can create the path forward that sits right with who you are. You will go away energised, motivated and knowing what your next steps are.

Coaching is for everyone!
Every day I see how much of a difference one hour for you can make for your outlook on life and motivation to take control of your happiness. As with every project in your life, the more you put in, the more you get out. If you bring openness, honesty, curiosity and a willingness to learn about yourself and how you are in the world, you will have a meaningful coaching experience that will impact how you do you in work and in life.
I offer free 30 minute discovery sessions for you to get to know me and my coaching style a bit better before you decide which package is for you. Book a free session here and let’s have a chat!

Positive Psychology is the science of happiness and flourishing. It investigates what makes us excel at some tasks and how we can learn to bring that into other areas of our lives. Positive Psychology Coaching works with the belief that you have everything you need within yourself to lead a happy, meaningful and joyful life.
On average my clients learn 5 - 10 tools and strategies from Positive Psychology that empowers them to coach themselves, create balance and build confidence. Are you ready to start building your own Positive Psychology toolbox?

Coaching is not therapy or counselling, but both share some techniques for inquiry and reflection. I will for example ask you a bunch of questions to get your thinking and consider new perspectives. While therapy usually deals with trauma and healing, often exploring events in the past to bring acceptance and closure, coaching looks forward into the future. In coaching, we hold a firm focus on the goal you set in the beginning of your journey. We might visit the past briefly to understand where a blocker or behavioural pattern originates, but only to learn how you can work with that going forward to help you thrive and flourish. With an action-oriented approach, clients tend to leave a coaching session energised, optimistic and with more clarity.

I use evidence-based frameworks and tools from Positive Psychology to help you discover your strengths and values. This builds self-awareness, confidence, mental fitness and emotional resilience - the crucial building blocks for a career that feels right.
I teach you a variety of practical tools in our sessions, including cognitive-behavioural frameworks that help you uncover how your thinking and feeling are connected to create positive behavioural change that facilitates personal and professional growth. You can also use that to tame that good old imposter!

Many neurodivergent clients benefit from more experiential exercises, where we might utilise movement (also great for those of us sitting in front of the laptop all day!), sketching, LEGO Serious Play, or metaphors to help you in the coaching process. I would love to discuss how we can create this space so it works for you. Book a free session with me.
