My mission is to empower lawyers and professionals to reach their potential and create the life and career they want.

AS FEATURED IN

My Journey

I spent a decade working in the UK and internationally as a lawyer, training at Magic Circle firm Linklaters, and qualifying into Dispute Resolution.

I  went on to make Partner at the age of 33 at City of London law firm Rosling King LLP.

I know what it means to work in an intense, pressurised and high-performance environment.

I also understand first-hand the constant challenge this poses to work-life balance, managing stress, and living the life you want.

I know from personal experience that the corporate world can provide extremely rewarding and enjoyable careers, but we need to optimise our mental health and wellbeing if we are to perform at our best and, most importantly, be the happiest version of ourselves.

A few years into my legal career, I set out to understand how we can feel and perform at our best in the corporate sphere. This led me to study a four-year MA in Psychotherapy and also train as a coach.

Fusing my lived experience as an international lawyer with cutting edge science on mental health, wellbeing and performance, I’m now passionate about coaching high-achievers to reach their potential and create their dream life and career.

I also apply my expertise to provide training to corporates on how to optimise mental health, wellbeing and performance.

Recommendations

“COMMITMENT TO SEEING TRANSFORMATIONAL BEHAVIOURS“
It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Helen as one of our trusted coaches. Not only has the feedback from her coaching been extremely positive, but her dedication to following up and checking in on the progress of her coachees demonstrates her commitment to seeing transformational behaviours in each individual.

“HELEN IS A VERY TALENTED EXECUTIVE COACH“
Helen is a very talented executive coach. Her career as a lawyer enables her to relate very easily to her clients and to their challenges. That leads to connection and trust – the backbone of all great coaching work. She is then able to introduce very effectively techniques from her background in mindfulness to enable clients to see, and to start to shift, engrained behaviours and beliefs that may no longer serve them. I would recommend Helen to any professional who is looking to move their career forward and is prepared to put in the work.

“TRULY AN INSPIRATION”
We invited Helen to appear at our panel discussion for Junior Combar, a specialist association for commercial barristers. Helen was truly an inspiration, demonstrating huge insight into the many challenges faced by lawyers, particularly barristers in their early years of practice. She suggested practical and even creative ways to address those challenges. Helen has a compelling and warm presence, and her input to the discussion was very welcome.

"I CAN’T RECOMMEND HELEN ENOUGH"

Working with Helen has been an empowering journey. Her ability to actively listen enabled us to work together to create a business plan/partnership application that was focused and aligned to my key strengths and objectives. Helen had a remarkable way of challenging my perspectives, introducing alternative options for consideration, and helping me reevaluate whether my proposed strategy was going to be the most effective approach to secure my end goal.
Working with Helen has enabled me to establish a clear vision of where I want to be and how I will get there, leading me towards a more empowered and purposeful career (and work/life balance!). I now have a clear business plan which focuses on key objectives and business development strategies which I am confident will be invaluable in terms of furthering my career. I can’t recommend Helen enough

"She holds space for clients beautifully"
I would wholeheartedly recommend Helen as a coach. She is an incredibly warm and kind person who has a presence that makes you feel truly heard. She holds space for clients beautifully, enabling them to hone in on what it is that they really want and need to focus on. Guided by her skilful prompts, I made a lot of progress on a good range of work (and life!) issues in the sessions I had with her. Thank you, Helen!
