Testimonials
Each of my clients’ coaching journeys is unique to them. So instead of trying to describe their experience, I will let them share what they took from our work together.

Kim helped me to revitalise my work.
Kim was insightful and welcoming. She created a space in which I felt safe to express myself and trusted her advice, which was always specific and practical. Kim helped me to identify my values and how these were or were not incorporated into my current professional role, which was invaluable in helping me to visualise my short- and long-term goals. I feel more motivated about my career because I have a better understanding of myself and my ambitions. It was a real pleasure to be coached by Kim.

Since we started working together, I'm becoming a better human.
When I started working with Kim, my life was like a rollercoaster, facing many ups and abrupt downs. Kim helped me in dealing with anxiety, stress, understanding emotions, and building on work and family relations. While working on many topics, Kim helped me find the direction I wanted to go and focus on significant projects, set achievable goals, and deal with challenges in a productive practice. Thank you, Kim, for your patience, support, and professionalism.

I would highly recommend coaching with Kim.
Working with Kim was so enjoyable and so refreshing. Kim is very friendly and has a natural ability to make you feel at ease. Our coaching sessions helped me a lot to clarify what career path I wanted to take and how to start my business. Kim helped me with many helpful suggestions and exercises to get to know myself better and to feel more confident with my project. She helped me define what could be the obstacles that will hold me back and how I can overcome them. It helps me feel more comfortable about my project and better prepared to start.

I am very grateful to Kim and for all the work she has put in with me.
Largely I struggled with anxiety, regret/dwelling on past decisions and events, a need for control, and issues with body image. In the past, these feelings would have come up and caused me to head into a downward spiral which I couldn’t get myself out of. After some time with Kim I am able to catch myself before this happens and in general feel less anxious and worried. When bad days inevitably come up I know what I can do for myself to protect my mental health and to ensure that a bad day doesn’t become a bad week, month and so on.
I felt throughout that Kim listens to what you have to say, she works with you and suggests ideas that are helpful and individual to you. For me, Kim has a way of putting things that just make sense.- G.P., 20, British

A potentially life-changing conversation.
I was fortunate to have met Kim during one of the most dynamic periods of my life when I was in the middle of moving to a new country. Being able to re-center through our sessions made this tumultuous process as fulfilling as the destination. Kim has a way of turning a potentially life-changing conversation into something casual and natural, and the conversation never felt directed or goal-oriented. It is only afterwards in the summaries where Kim skillfully restructures the conversation into tools and insights. These then can be utilized in life-changing ways, to the extent of your current commitment level. Speaking with Kim feels like speaking with a lifelong friend, but with the clean slate of a new acquaintance. These two elements - the comfortable familiarity and the analytical objectivity - are a valuable and an extraordinarily rare combination in a conversation partner.

Through my takeaways from our sessions, I believe I will ultimately find a happier and healthier career path.
I would highly recommend Kim for anyone looking for personal coaching. Kim has always been very easy to talk to. She asks deep, thought-provoking questions, clarifies anything initially unclear (to both her and to me!), and assigns useful tasks to reflect on in between sessions. Additionally, she is always very prepared for each session. She has excellent communication and outlines how she envisions each session beforehand. At the same time, she is always open to feedback and tailors discussions to fit my wishes. After our sessions, I've learned a lot about myself and found a lot to reflect on. Kim has helped me identify ways and barriers to moving forward in my career, my values and strengths, and more. I've been able to validate past and present decisions and we've discussed how I can use this personal growth to move forward in a job search and career.

I was able to develop a better mindset towards seemingly overwhelming problems.
Working with Kim was great! She really creates a space which is positive and uplifting. As someone who has already undergone therapy, I appreciated the goal and action-oriented approach life coaching purports. She was also able to facilitate methods and systems that take into account my personality and inner emotional landscape, life circumstances, socio-cultural background and so on. I believe she would be a good coach no matter how different or unique your life is. I was able to develop a better mindset towards seemingly overwhelming problems. I can now identify my own needs better, and develop the self-discipline to work towards my priorities. These can be larger life goals or even everyday practices, such as hobbies which bring me joy. Coaching is also enabling me to set up better systems to navigate my professional and personal relationships better, and communicate more effectively.

Coaching helped me to examine my goals and devise ways to focus on my top priorities.
[Coaching] has helped me look for ways to honor those goals as well as to winnow out things that weren't providing much meaning but that were hard to say no to. In addition, I'd wondered if it was too late to pursue certain dreams but couldn't seem to give up on them - but the fun was gone. The coaching has helped me find that element of fun again.
[Kim] listened thoughtfully. Time and again, because of her careful listening, she was able to help me get to the essence of the issue. Then together we looked for workable solutions as well as ways to cope without completely losing sight of those goals when all falls to the wayside because of life's (inevitable) big and small curveballs. I always looked forward to our sessions and came out them feeling renewed and excited to try the ideas we came up with.- M.S., 62, American

Kim gave me the confidence to let go of factors outside of my control and develop my self-esteem.
Despite never meeting face to face, Kim always made me feel like I was speaking with a friend during our sessions. She created a non-judgemental space where I was welcome to be loud and angry in one moment, and quiet and reflective in the next. Not only did I have a new job by the end of our five sessions, but I also had a new outlook on my sector and my unique contribution to it.

Kim made the process really smooth and enjoyable.
I was always looking forward to our session, as Kim was easy to talk to and her work ethic is brilliant. The coaching helped me to start my days in a more active way, which in turn helped to increase my productivity later on. It also helped me to prioritize and plan better, as well as maintaining a healthier work-life balance.

Kim made me feel comfortable, safe, and seen.
She is very flexible and empathetic, ready to adapt her style to the way you would like to work and asked appropriate questions to bring to the fore different perspectives and link concerns with other things going on. I have been able to articulate difficult things and come away with tools to practice to help with both short and long term issues. Coming away from each session I have been able to bring one (usually rather big) thing away with me, and have felt both rejuvenated and tired after our sessions.

Wonderful and thought-provoking
It has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of myself. Kim guided me through self-reflection exercises and thought-provoking conversations, helping me identify and address limiting beliefs and patterns that were holding me back. This newfound self-awareness has helped me reshape my mindset and approach to challenges.

Kim is an amazing coach.
Kim made sure I am aware of my goals and the reasons behind my obstacles, she led me to an understanding and showed possibilities to come over them. She is adjusting to your needs and guides you through your development. Her educational background makes you feel that you are in good hands.

Great, from the beginning.
I felt Kim understood my thoughts and feelings from the first meeting and felt like our sessions were a safe place to speak out. I feel more confident of my feelings and feel more accepting towards them. Most importantly, I have a better self awareness.
