Jill Abrahart Coaching

What is coaching?

 

I work with a very wide range of people at all stages of their lives and careers.

 

Coaching sessions provide a confidential, safe space to be listened to, share your journey and have time to reflect. You will explore your core beliefs and values, set goals and move forward step by step at your own pace.

 

 

Coaching isn’t just about careers. You are in control and you can choose what you want to focus on. I take a holistic approach as it’s impossible to separate the different strands of our lives. Your career choices may be guided by your relationships or your work could be impacting your health. Life can be challenging and I offer support as you find your own path. 

Is now the time?

 

Coaching can help you at absolutely any stage of your life but when you need to make important decisions, working with a coach can help you work out how to move forward. I regularly work with people who are;

  • Changing careers
  • Trying to get a better work-life balance
  • Starting their own business or going freelance
  • Facing relationship changes
  • Struggling with health issues, both mental and physical
  • Getting back to work after a break
  • Facing redundancy or unemployment
  • In financial difficulty 
 
No problem is impossible to overcome – get in touch.
Jill Abrahart has been a vital sounding board whilst I have been developing my company. Our sessions provided valuable time for reflection and I came out every time with new clarity about the decisions I needed to make. Jill is a totally genuine person and it's a great asset to have an honest, supportive and knowledgeable person to speak to, especially during a worldwide pandemic!

About Jill Abrahart

 

I have lived and worked in  South-East London for 30 years. Originally from the Midlands, I came to London to study for an Art and English Degree and never looked back. 

 

 

I love to motivate and inspire people to reach their potential. I think humour is key  to success and I know that when everything seems dark there is always light. Life is tough at times!

 

 

In my spare time I love to paint. I think having a creative outlet is vital to my wellbeing. I also like to keep moving and know that exercise does wonders for my mental and physical health.

Practicalities of coaching

 
At the moment all coaching is conducted online via Zoom. Once we are safe to meet up face-to-face I offer coaching across South East and Central London. Many clients choose a mixture of online and face-to-face coaching. Some prefer online only and some really want to meet in person. I  am very flexible and it’s entirely down to what suits you best.
 

I know that finding time for coaching can be difficult and I am happy to offer sessions at the weekend, evenings or even early mornings if that suits your schedule. 

Coaching sessions


  • Free taster session 
  • Initial blocks of 4 or 6 sessions
  • Each session is 1 hour
  • Evening and weekend sessions available
  • Online or face-to-face (when permitted)
  • 1-session specials available 
 
 
I found my sessions with Jill to be really informative and helpful. Through her interactive exercises and questions, she helped me to find ways of bringing my past experiences, current activities and dreams together. This in turn provided me with a new way of looking forward and seeing that there really are plenty of options and opportunities out there and it’s worth following the path that you really want to follow. Jill is a wise and empathetic listener and instinctively knows how to help you feel cared for and supported. I highly recommend her.
