Book a free consultationFree · 20 minutes · Online. Talk about what brings you here, ask questions and explore whether working with Sonia feels right.
You may know that something needs to change without knowing what comes next. Perhaps you have reached a decision you keep postponing, outgrown a familiar role or found that the life you are maintaining no longer reflects what you want. You do not need a dramatic crisis or a perfectly defined goal to begin.
Life coaching with Sonia gives you space to think honestly about where you are, understand what gets in the way and choose steps you can take in everyday life. The work brings reflection and practical action together, with attention to your circumstances, responsibilities and capacity.
Sessions take place online. Sonia’s practice is based in Bicester and works with clients worldwide. Life coaching is £150 per session. Start with a free 20-minute online consultation to discuss what you need and whether working together feels right.
When you want a clearer direction
You can be competent and busy while feeling uncertain about where your energy is going. The next promotion, project or commitment may look sensible on paper yet leave an important part of your life unattended. Coaching gives you room to consider what matters to you before another decision is made by habit or expectation.
You might bring a career change, a new stage of life, a personal ambition, a shift in confidence or a wish to make more room for yourself. Sonia helps you examine the choices in front of you, including what each would ask of you and what you are ready to prioritise. The aim is a direction you can stand behind, rather than a plan that only sounds impressive.
Decisions you can move forward with
Some decisions stay unresolved because you need more information. Others stay unresolved because each option involves uncertainty, disappointment or the possibility of being seen differently. Making another list of advantages and disadvantages may not reach the part that feels difficult.
In coaching, you can separate what you know from what you fear, explore the expectations influencing you and consider which compromises you can live with. You can prepare a conversation, test a small change or decide what needs to happen before a larger commitment. You remain responsible for your choices. Sonia offers questions, perspective and support for making them deliberately.
Confidence, boundaries and following through
Knowing what you want does not always make it easy to act. You may hold back from expressing an idea, agree to more than you can sustain or lose momentum when the first attempt feels uncomfortable. Coaching can help you notice the moment where intention turns into avoidance, overcommitment or self-doubt.
The work can include practising how to say what you need, setting a boundary, preparing for feedback or breaking a larger ambition into manageable actions. Between sessions, you can try a response in real life and bring back what happened. Progress may be a clearer decision or a difficult conversation you finally have, as well as a larger change in direction.
How Sonia works with you
Sonia brings over 15 years of therapeutic, coaching and leadership experience, with training that includes life coaching, personal counselling and relationship counselling. This gives the work room for both the practical question and the feelings that make it hard to answer. You do not have to leave the personal part of a decision outside the session.
Truth, Regulation and Behaviour guide the work: recognising what is happening, building enough steadiness to respond and practising choices that support change. In life coaching, that can mean being honest about what you want, noticing your response to uncertainty and taking a step that reflects your priorities. The balance is agreed with you, with attention to your inner health and wellbeing.

You can begin with a specific decision or with a less defined sense of being stuck. You and Sonia identify what would make the conversation useful, then explore the situation in enough depth to understand both the options and what is keeping you in place. You can bring a recent example rather than trying to explain your whole life at once.
A session may lead to an action, a conversation to prepare, something to observe or a decision to pause while you gather what you need. There is no requirement to arrive with a polished progress report. If something you tried did not help, that gives you useful material to understand and adjust together. The pace should fit the change you are working towards and the life you are living.
Life coaching or personal therapy?
Life coaching may fit when your main focus is direction, decisions, personal goals and putting change into practice. Personal therapy may be a more useful starting point when anxiety, burnout, distress or recurring emotional patterns are taking up most of your attention. These experiences can overlap, and you do not need to choose the right label before making contact.
Use the free consultation to describe what is happening and discuss the most suitable approach with Sonia. Coaching is not a diagnostic service or a substitute for medical care. If your needs point towards a different kind of support, that belongs in the conversation before you commit to sessions.
Explore Personal Therapy & Coaching →A different focus from leadership coaching
Life coaching centres on your personal direction and how you want to live, including decisions that involve work. Leadership coaching focuses more specifically on how you lead, exercise judgement, communicate and work with the responsibilities of a leadership role. A change of career does not automatically mean you need leadership coaching.
If the central question is what you want next or how to act on a personal priority, life coaching may be the clearer starting point. If it is how to lead people or manage the demands of your role, explore the leadership service.

Life coaching is £150 per session, held online. The initial 20-minute online consultation is free. Use it to ask questions, describe what you would like support with and agree the session length, frequency and arrangements before booking paid sessions. You do not need to commit to a fixed programme to have that conversation.
Choose a quiet, private space where you can speak freely. You can bring notes if they help, but preparation does not need to become another task to get right. Start with the decision, pattern or possibility that is on your mind.
