Stuck between who you were and who you're becoming?
You're not lost. You're in transition. And that's exactly where I work.
"Chloë creates a warm, challenging and deeply supportive space that allows you to reconnect with yourself, build confidence, and begin to move forward with clarity and intention."
— Maxine, CEO, charity
Who this is for
Reflective academics and professionals navigating career transition, cultural adaptation, or the deeper questions of identity and belonging that come with being between worlds.
If you are currently struggling with transition, take a look at my Between Worlds pilot course: group coaching sessions with others in similar situations.
“Depth and sunshine”
— Hannah, Executive Director
My Story
Following a PhD and a decade in academic research, I made my own exit. No roadmap. No one who truly understood. Just years of sitting with the uncertainty until, slowly, something shifted.
I know the guilt. The identity crisis. The 'but I've invested so much' paralysis. I also know what it takes to rebuild.
"Can naturally and effortlessly create a nurturing space for others to think…A soothing presence, beautiful, limitless curiosity, and an inquisitive mind."
— Dorota Crowther, Training Specialist,

What makes my coaching different
"I would recommend this kind of coaching to people who are outwardly functioning at a high level but are quietly struggling under the weight of responsibility, transition or self-doubt."
— Maxine, CEO, charity
My PhD in philosophy and a decade researching implicit bias gave me more than academic credentials — they shaped my way of seeing.
I help you:
See the patterns in your thinking and behaviour
Question the assumptions keeping you stuck
Understand the emotional undercurrents driving your decisions
Reconnect with what truly matters, beneath the layers of 'should'
“She is able to hold a safe space for me to feel contained as a coachee - compassionate, gentle and yet able to generate questions which have led me to far deeper insight and possibilities for myself than I could have imagined alone. Our time together never feels like 'work', and yet it is on reflection that I realise how much work we have done!”
— Kathryn, Senior Executive, NHS
“I feel so much more in control and trusting of my intuition now and notice when things start to feel like they are spiralling.”
— Rebecca Blackstone, Senior Manager, NHS
“Chloë is an exceptional coach. Because she is so insightful, her questions are precise and therefore transformative: she has a real gift for helping me identify where I get in my own way, without ever making me feel judged or rushed.”
— Holly Tarquini, Creative Producer
“What stood out most was how patient she was, yet she kept things moving forward, so I always felt a sense of progress and achievement after each session.”
— Dorota Crowther, Training Specialist, SCL Education Group
"Chloë really helped me to challenge ingrained ways I think about myself and my skills...I have a long way to go but Chloë's challenge set me on a different path in the way that I view myself."
— Maxine, CEO, charity
“Working through these blockers with Chloe has been eye opening. It's helped me gain clarity and awareness to have real tangible actions that I can take to help move me forward.”
— Mel, coachee
"I found all my sessions very useful and delivered outcomes I had not envisaged before the session.”
— Jordan Weaver, Manager, NHS
What to expect
"Not only did I learn a lot about me, but I had a lot of fun doing it too!"
— Maxine, CEO, charity
Less like sessions. More like a space to breathe and think clearly. You'll leave with energy, clarity, and tangible steps — not just insight, but momentum.
In safe hands
“I explained at the beginning of our sessions that I felt I could be a bit resistant to coaching but Chloë’s gentle, but firm approach really brought the conversational and creative out in me.”
