Workplace and Employee Coaching
Supporting your people, one step at a time
Your employees spend a significant part of their lives at work. When they're facing workplace pressures, changes, confidence issues or challenges outside work, having a confidential space to talk can make a real difference.
ProFriends provides confidential 1-to-1 coaching and mentoring for employees, giving them time away from day-to-day pressures to reflect, find practical solutions and decide what they need to do next.
Support can be commissioned for an individual employee or provided as part of a wider staff support programme.
Supporting employees with:
- Workplace confidence and resilience
- Managing everyday pressures and workload
- Communication and assertiveness
- Difficult conversations and workplace relationships
- Boundaries and work-life balance
- Career development and progression
- Leadership and management confidence
- Motivation and feeling stuck
- Change within the workplace
- Personal circumstances affecting work
Coaching is not counselling or a replacement for occupational health or mental-health services. Where someone's needs fall outside the scope of coaching, appropriate additional support may be recommended.

My Approach
I’m a qualified Life and Career Coach with over 25 years’ experience supporting adults and young adults with confidence, resilience, career development and change.
My professional background includes working as a Careers Guidance Officer, Senior Mentor and Keyworker across DWP and ESF-funded programmes, as well as managing teams and the delivery of employment and support services.
Today, I bring that experience into my coaching practice, combining practical coaching, structured career guidance and counselling awareness with a warm, straightforward approach.
Workplace sessions provide employees with confidential time to step away from the pressures of their role, explore what is happening for them and identify practical steps forward.
My approach is supportive but purposeful — helping people feel heard while keeping the focus on what they can realistically change, one step at a time.

Space to Reflect
Supporting Your People
Practical Support
Work can be busy, and sometimes employees simply need the opportunity to step away from the day-to-day pressures of their role.
Having confidential, independent space to talk things through can help employees gain perspective, understand what may be getting in their way and think more clearly about what they need.

Practical Support
Coaching is focused on moving forward.
Sessions can help employees explore challenges around confidence, communication, boundaries, workload, workplace relationships and career development — before identifying practical, manageable steps they can take.

Support Through Challenges
Providing access to independent coaching gives organisations another way to support their employees alongside existing management, HR, occupational health and wellbeing provision.
It demonstrates a commitment to employee development and wellbeing while giving individuals dedicated time to focus on the challenges that matter to them.
Support Through Challenges
Support Through Challenges
Sometimes workplace pressures or personal circumstances can begin to affect how someone feels and functions at work.
Independent coaching gives employees a confidential space to talk things through, gain perspective and explore practical ways of managing the situation.
Where appropriate, coaching can sit alongside support from managers, HR, Occupational Health or other professional services.
Wellbeing at Work
Workplace wellbeing isn't just about managing stress. It can also involve confidence, boundaries, relationships, workload and feeling able to cope with change.
Coaching gives employees time to consider what is affecting their wellbeing and identify realistic changes that may help.
The focus is on practical strategies, greater self-awareness and manageable steps forward.
