Wisdom, intellect and heart.

“Neena has a gift. She is able to hone in on issues quickly and precisely, and balances this with immeasurable patience in guiding you to unearth what she sees as clearly as she sees it, together.”

— Senior Manager, Management Consulting.

I listen fully and guide deeply. During sessions I am there 100% for you. We will adapt sessions, on the go to ensure that you are getting the best possible support.

As human beings 99% of our behaviour is driven by our sub-conscious - data that we took in without even realising it, experiences that we believe are long gone, and emotions that linger under the surface. Our sessions will blend practical actionable approaches with great care and empathy to guide you to go deeper to make sustainable changes. I have over 3,000 hours of coaching experience, providing a wealth of resource and insights to use on our journey.
