It is not a counselling/therapy service, but a still space for you to ‘exhale’, de-stress, and feel more resourced.

All staff:
Working within healthcare setting
Emergency services e.g. An Garda Síochána
Clergy

Covid related services e.g. testing, tracking
Pharmacy staff
Residential care homes
Nursing homes
Booking a session
Follow the ‘Book A Session’ link under the coach of your choice.
There, you will be able to book a time to connect with your coach using phone or video call.
What can coaching do for me?
A conversation with a professional coach can enable you to focus on what’s important, gain clarity and find a way forward that works for you.
