Testimonials

August 2024

Lily is a warm, empathetic and informed and I found her easy going, calm and interested coaching skills a real benefit to my sometimes-chaotic organisational processes in my own business. With her insights and suggestions, I have been able to take boring, menial tasks and approach them with enthusiasm and a sense of achievement at getting them finally completed. I wouldn't hesitate to utilise Lily's services again and I would and will highly recommend her to others who might benefit from her expertise. I thoroughly enjoyed the sessions; I looked forward to them and I am time richer for having spent time with her. Thank you, Lily, for your great service!

August 2024

Lily provides a calm, warm and empathic space where I felt comfortable to unpick all the parts of who I am and put them back together in a way that worked for me, and brought me joy. I felt comfortable to disclose topics around my identity, sexuality and values and was met with open-ness and a willingness to help me on my journey. I never felt any pressure to hurry the process or have things figured out, Lily was able to ‘find the thread’ between our different sessions and make it feel cohesive and healing. I feel comfortable knowing I can come back to this space with Lily at any time and that is a lovely feeling in itself. I’d highly recommend Lily.

Working with Lily over six sessions in 12 weeks has led to significant changes in my professional life. I started without a clear sense of my priorities, what excited me, or the best way to approach my professional goals. I have diverse interests and long-term goals that differ from my short-term objectives. With Lily's support, I was able to prioritize the steps needed to establish my private practice while keeping my larger creative goals in mind.

Lily's guidance helped me identify what truly excited and motivated me. She encouraged me to move away from a draining, achievement-oriented mindset to one that promotes autonomy, freedom, and sustainability. This shift allowed me to work in a way that feels fulfilling and sustainable.

Her keen curiosity and genuine interest in my journey, combined with her ability to simplify my thought processes and validate my challenges, were invaluable. Lily helped me map out my different priorities, timelines, and how I wanted to spend my week. This gave me a sense of grounding and structure to make plans that ensure a fulfilling yet balanced professional life. I recommend her services to anyone seeking clarity and fulfillment in their professional journey.

Lily is lovely and patient. She is a great listener and I felt acknowledged, which made me feel comfortable sharing my feelings and problems with her.

July 2024

Working with Lily for the past year has been incredibly insightful. Her kind and gentle approach has significantly aided me in understanding how I interact with others and how I operate overall.

 

Lily's ability to listen and recall important information is truly impressive. She often reminds me of things I've mentioned in previous sessions, which become key to making new connections and realisations.

 

In less than a year, I have become much more aware of the behaviours I exhibit and how to adjust them to foster healthier relationships with others

I was unsure what to expect from coaching but Lily's professionalism and warmth immediately put me at ease; Lily's curiosity has helped me to explore things in a new way, clarifying what I want going forward and giving me the impetus to start putting this into action. Thank you Lily!

June 2024

Lily is a very calm and attentive listener who puts me at ease and with whom I feel comfortable talking to.

June 2024

I was hesitate to start speaking with someone regarding my problems but once I found Lily and we spoke the first time I knew that she would be able to help me and after a few sessions I was able to get my mental health in a much better place and move forward with my life.

May 2024

My experience with Lily was positive and led to a great outcome. Her approach helped me stay focused and accountable. Lily's gentle and caring way of motivating me made me feel heard and encouraged. She was professional, punctual, and respected the set timescale without running over. I would recommend Lily to anyone with a goal they want to achieve.

May 2024

When I started my sessions with Lily I had a too many goals that wanted to achieve, part of it was being fit and eating healthy. I was 7 months post partum and was just moved into a new country. I was frustrated with myself for not being able to eat healthy everyday, follow a workout schedule and sleep and wake up early while taking care of a baby and helping my family get settled into a new city. In short, I was being hard on myself. This was the way I was always used to - I take action through negative self talk. But this time around though it wasn’t working. Before jumping straight to trying to achieve those goals, Lily took the time to hear my story first, she patiently listened about my life as a new mom, how things have changed, and eventually we managed to understand where my frustrations were coming from. She helped me navigate through my thoughts and the negative thinking and she helped me get a better and deeper understanding of myself and my values. In the end, I realised that the goals I was setting for myself were just a byproduct of a deeper need and issue I was going through within myself - I was trying so hard to fit my old goals into the new life I have. With Lily’s help I was able to see things differently and I focused on creating a new version of myself instead. She shared with me tools that helped me assess my priorities and evaluate if they matched and served my life now as a new mom and a wife. Towards the end of our sessions, I did not only overachieve my fitness and health goals, but I also was slowly learning to be my own source of support and my own friend. I started to recognise and listened to the kind voice in my head especially at times when I was being too hard on myself. Another important thing I learned during my sessions with Lily that really stuck with me was the concept of “just showing up”. This idea of “just showing up” helped me to jumpstart my goals regardless of the outcome. Telling myself to “just show up” allowed me to appreciate the effort I was making to be better instead of focusing on targets and expectations and failing to achieve them. This mentality led me to not only overachieve my goals but it made the pursuit of it into a positive one. I will always be grateful for this experience with Lily - for her patience, empathy and professionalism throughout our sessions and above all the positive impact her work and service has left in my life.

May 2024

Lily's approach is rooted in active listening and insightful feedback, elements that stood out prominently from our initial sessions. Her ability to distill complex emotions and situations into understandable, manageable parts allowed me to view my challenges and aspirations through a new lens. It was not just about setting goals; it was about understanding the journey toward these goals, compartmentalizing each step to make the process more digestible and less overwhelming. One of the most profound aspects of Lily's style is her professionalism paired with a genuine warmth and friendliness. This balance ensured that our sessions were not only productive but also comfortable spaces for open dialogue. Her professionalism instilled confidence in the process, while her approachability made it easier to delve into personal topics without feeling intruded upon. This duality is rare and contributed significantly to the trust and rapport we built over time. Lily's advice, always insightful and tailored to my unique situation, has been a cornerstone of our sessions. Her unique perspectives often provided a fresh take on issues I had long wrestled with, offering both solutions and new ways of thinking. Her mentorship has equipped me with the tools, confidence, and mindset necessary to approach both current challenges and future aspirations. In sharing this experience, the aim is not only to express gratitude but to factually articulate the transformative impact Lily has had on my life. Her unique blend of empathy, professionalism, and insight has been nothing short of a catalyst for personal and professional development.

April 2024

Over just a handful of sessions, Lily really helped me sort out my brain and unload some mental baggage that I'd been carrying around for a number of years. I'm feeling much better now and would highly recommend her services to anyone in a similar situation!

April 2024

Lily has enabled me to make sense of some of my ideas to such an extent that I am now working with clear direction towards fulfilling the goals we clarified during the sessions. Her approach is person centred meaning that at no point did I feel taken off the track I felt I wanted to be on. I believe this is very important for coaching, to keep the focus as your own. Lily did this with a quiet and confident skill which I would recommend anyone who is seeking clarity for their next steps in life or work to access if they possibly can. Thank you Lily!

April 2024

Lily is wonderful with a holistic approach. I reached a point where I felt really worried and stuck on my journey and Lily helped me to set achievable and measurable goals and supported me to achieve (or more like exceed beyond belief!) these step by step. It is almost like Lily could see my full potential before I could really believe in it myself. From the beginning I felt heard and fully supported by her, she helped me to find motivation, clarity, focus and patience when I needed it. I really valued her counselling background when I had to overcome emotional or other personal obstacles. Lily is a lovely person, extremely skilled, professional, kind, caring and flexible in how she works. I am forever grateful for her help and wouldn't hesitate to choose her again or recommend her wholeheartedly.

March 2024

I valued our six sessions together. Lily offered me a warm and supportive space to explore my needs. She gently encouraged me to focus on outcomes and provided an appropriate level of challenge for me to understand some of my barriers and to ensure I was working towards clear and achievable goals. Thank you.

February 2024

I really enjoy my journey with Lily in the past 4 months. She has supported me tremendously through my journey of transitioning from a independent yoga teacher to a professional coach. We have looked at many aspects of this transition. Every session is reflective and enriching. I am very grateful for all the learnings. Thanks again for everything.

January 2024

"I contacted Lilly late in 2023 to discuss some issues that I felt burdened by. These were a combination of historical abuse trauma and more recent destructive behaviors. The process with Lilly gave me the opportunity to unburden some weighty issues and also checkpoint my life as a middle aged man. I found Lilly to be insightful and easy to work with. There were some unexpected insights into many aspects of my life. Should the need arise I would not hesitate to contact and use Lilly again"

November 2023

Thank you"

June 2023

"Lily has been a wonder throughout the entire therapeutic process. I had a clear idea of what I was looking for from the get-go, both in approach and topics, and she incorporated everything perfectly. She made me feel heard in a gentle and understanding manner, while also challenging me in a way that allowed me to reconsider my approach to key topics without feeling judged. She took an active role, as I requested, and gave me some invaluable tools and exercises tailored to my needs. Without her, I would not have made the progress that I have, and I am truly grateful that I found her. I could not ask for a better therapist"

August 2022

"Lily, thank you so much for your patience, kindness and advice and support throughout our time together. You have helped me more than I could have imagined and I will be forever grateful to you for counselling."

August 2022

"I've been working with Lily for approximately 8 months and admittedly was a little skeptical about receiving counselling and talking therapy, however Lily made me feel right at ease, fully understood my personality and gelled with me to make my counselling both an enjoyable and beneficial experience. I have been able to develop my self understanding and even learned new things about myself, which has been really beneficial to changing my behaviours and reactions to certain situations. I thoroughly recommend talking therapy, especially so with Lily, she's a fantastic listener with no judgement and just what you need when life gets tough."
