You've built the life.
Now find yourself in it.
I work with executives and high-achieving professionals who have succeeded by every measure — and still feel like something essential is missing. Together, we find what that is.
Does any of this sound familiar?
You're respected in your field, but privately exhausted by a life that feels more like performance than purpose.
You've hit the milestones — the title, the income, the recognition — and wondered why it still doesn't feel like enough.
You know something needs to change, but you can't name it, and you're not sure anyone around you would understand.
You've read the books, tried the productivity systems. What you actually need is someone to think deeply with.
You lead others with clarity, but when it comes to your own life, the compass feels broken.
You're not in crisis. You're not falling apart. But you're not fully alive either — and that matters.
If any of this resonates, you've found the right place. This is exactly the work I'm here for.

How We Work Together
Chemistry Call
Before anything else, we need to know if we're the right fit. This call is relaxed, exploratory, and completely free. You'll tell me where you are; I'll tell you honestly whether I think I can help. No pitch, no pressure.
Book Your Chemistry CallThe Power Hour
A single focused session designed to create real movement on something specific. Whether you bring a decision you're stuck on, a pattern you keep repeating, or a question you've been afraid to sit with — we will work it through, together.

For those ready for deeper, sustained work, longer engagements are available. We can discuss what makes sense for where you are during the Chemistry Call.
Start with a Chemistry CallWhat clients say
Rachel helped me reconnect with who I am outside of what I do. I came to her burnt out and uncertain about everything. I left with a clarity I hadn't felt in years — and the courage to actually act on it.
I was sceptical — I'd tried coaching before and found it shallow. This was completely different. Rachel doesn't give you frameworks or worksheets. She asks the questions nobody else dares to ask, and she stays with you until you find the real answer.
After 20 years in medicine, I knew I needed to change something — I just didn't know what. Six months with Rachel and I finally understand what was missing. More importantly, I know what to do about it.
The path forward
Simple, unhurried, honest — here's how we work together.
Book a Chemistry Call
A 15-minute conversation to determine whether we're a good fit. No commitment, no pressure. Just an honest conversation.
Have a real conversation
Tell me where you are. I'll listen differently than most — as someone trained in both psychotherapy and leadership coaching.
Begin the work
If we're a fit, we start. What that looks like depends entirely on what you need — not a preset programme.
Experience the shift
Clients consistently describe the same thing: feeling more like themselves again. Clearer. More grounded. More alive.
Things people ask
If you're a leader, executive, or high-achieving professional who feels disconnected from your own life despite outward success — yes. My work is specifically designed for people who are tired of surface-level solutions and ready for something real.
It's a relaxed 15-minute conversation. You share where you are; I listen and ask a few questions. By the end, we both have a clear sense of whether working together makes sense. There's no pitch and no pressure to book anything.
My background is in psychotherapy, which means I bring clinical depth to the coaching work. I'm trained to recognise what's actually happening beneath the surface — not just what you're telling me. That said, this is coaching, not therapy. We're working toward a specific future, not processing the past.
Most clients experience a meaningful shift in perspective within the first few sessions. Lasting change takes longer — how long depends on where you're starting and what you're working toward. I'll be honest with you about that from the beginning.
Yes, to both. Roughly half my clients are men. I work with clients globally via video. Where you are in the world, or what you do for a living, matters far less than whether you're ready to do honest work.
The Power Hour is $295 for a single 60-minute session. For longer engagements, investment varies based on scope and duration. We can talk about what makes sense during the Chemistry Call.
