When something needs to change, here is where you begin.
Holistic career and life coaching for midlife transitions, reinvention, and clarity.
-
This space is for you if...
• You feel disconnected from your work, and unsure what to do next
• You are mid-career and quietly questioning your career path, or your direction in life
• You feel the pull for a bigger change (maybe even leaving your current career), but don’t know what’s on the other side
• You’re navigating a transition — burnout, breakup, loss, or relocation — and it’s hard to make clear decisions from here
• You’re curious about climate, sustainability, or social impact work, but don’t know how to move into it
Wherever you’re starting from, we begin there.

How we will work together
Coaching is a supportive, structured space to slow down, reflect, and move forward in a way that actually fits you.
We start with where you are — not where you think you should be.
We work at a pace that feels steady and sustainable.
We bring both your career and your wider life into the conversation.
We focus on clarity, and also on building the confidence to act on it.
We make space for uncertainty — without getting stuck in it.
We focus on insight and action — with space for reflection, challenge, and humour too.
Meet Your Coach
Hi, I am Claudia, a Positive Psychologist and Career Coach working with clients at both big or small crossroads.
I’ve been working with mid-career professionals for over six years, combining a strong academic background in Positive and Climate Psychology with experience from my own path in Corporate Tech. Our work together is 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, and more direct when you’re ready to take action. Together, we combine visionary thinking with practical clarity, helping you navigate career and life transitions with confidence, resilience, and your wellbeing in mind.
My work is shaped by both nature and science, and draws on the wisdom of those who came before us — our human and more-than-human ancestors alike.
If you’re looking for a coach who walks alongside you with courage, compassion, and curiosity, you’re in the right place.
The Coaching Process
Your coaching journey will take you through a structured 5-session process.
From feeling stuck to taking confident action in just 6-8 weeks!
-
What’s working in your current work and life? And what is not? Explore your values, strengths, and life history — what has felt aligned, and what hasn’t. We’ll uncover what energises you and what you’re ready to leave behind.
-
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!
-
What you can expect
While every journey is unique, there are some topics that are common across all walks of life:
• Reconnect with your values, strengths and what gives you energy
• Explore what meaningful work and a good life actually looks like for you
• Clarify your options — professionally, personally and with your lifestyle in mind
• Understand how your skills can translate into that career pivot
• Get unstuck and take aligned, doable steps forward
It’s a space to discover something new about yourself, while actively working on positive forward momentum.

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.
