Coaching to clarify your next steps and bring you closer to a meaningful, aligned career.
I work with people seeking a new role, preparing for a promotion, dealing with redundancy or figuring out a longer-term vision for their career.
Career coaching for...
- Clarifying values and strengths as relates to career and work.
- Building confidence and self-worth in your work.
- Maximising your experience of your current role and company, so that you can learn as much as possible.
- Exploring and learning from any repeating patterns that you’ve experienced in your career and would like to change.
- Reflecting on your past career experiences to informs your next steps.
- Making space for seemingly impossible dreams and ideas.
I see career and work as a core form of self-expression. It’s about how we relate to the world, what we expect from life, how our outer world reflects our sense of self-worth.
Work can be a incredible ground for self-expression, fulfilment and connection. It can be the place we feel we’re living from a sense of purpose and having that win-win of positive impact and personal satisfaction.
When it’s not right though, it can be a slog, and a source of frustration. It may not be easy to craft a career that truly works for you, but it couldn’t be more worthwhile.
In this work, we unpack and unpick the fears, self-doubt and confusion. We make space for longing, imagination and visions. We come up with ideas, plans and experiments to uncover and initiate the right next step.
"The sessions with Christina helped me deepen my understanding of the beliefs that were standing in the way of success and I now feel like I can look at these beliefs as something of the past. I’m moving forward now with more awareness and a changed perspective on my process. The work with Christina was really deep and fulfilling, she listened and held the space and directed the process to a fruitful end. She is a capable coach who provides a calm, safe and professional space."

Some of my beliefs about work....
- The time you spend at work matters. Not just because it’s a lot of hours, but because it’s the place where your purposeful, active, engaged self interfaces with the world.
- Change can be scary and hard so it’s good to have support. This helps us to actually take the plunge even when it would be easier to keep coasting.
- If your career has been boring or chaotic it’s not your fault (and it's not too late to change it).
"I was looking for a sense of direction - more happiness and a clear decision on where to take my work. The coaching made things so much clearer and changed my perspective on my life and my work. The coaching with Christina has given me the confidence and self-belief to say and do what I believe with conviction."

Every career change is unique...
Some career transitions arrive uninvited and unexpected. I support people with the disorientation of these experiences, finding our way through to whatever that next chapter might be.
Other transitions feel long overdue, and clients here have a sense of being in a box that’s too small, or stuck in a traffic jam, longing for the open road. They know they’re ready for a change, but they need support imagining, defining or moving towards it.
In these cases, coaching helps clients to build their confidence and their sense of motivation. They get clear on what they want, how to manage the risks and take steps towards a new destination.
