Christian life comes with its own set of challenges and struggles, and every Christian needs support at various stages of their development whether it is about aligning your life with your values, discovering a deeper purpose, or connecting (or reconnecting) with your Creator, guidance can make all the difference.
Christian Pastoral Coaching integrates spiritual values with practical coaching techniques to support both your personal and faith-based growth.
Christian life also comes with great promises, and I firmly believe that the effort you invest in deepening your faith and living out your Christian values is more than worth it.
Whether you’re looking to deepen your connection with God, navigate life’s challenges with faith-based wisdom, or integrate spiritual principles into your daily life, this coaching is designed to help you find clarity, purpose, and experience fulfilment.
Christian Pastoral Coaching is a specialized form of coaching that integrates elements of spiritual guidance, emotional support, and practical life coaching within a faith-based Christian context

My expertise:
I am happy you are reading these words because they are a testimony of my own journey.
Christian spirituality has been essential to my life since I was very young and not because my parents taught me this but because it resonated with my heart. Christianity can mean different things to different people, based on their personal experiences. For me it has meant the opportunity to learn about my Creator who is Love and about His love for me and everyone around me, and an encouragement to manifest this love and help other people.
Later in life, I had a very powerful experience of the unconditional love of our Creator (similar to those you find in NDEs) that has led me to life coaching as a specialised way of truly helping people. A desire to replicate and multiply the spiritual love I have received and the gifts that I gave been gifted with.
This, of course, does not mean that I have done no mistakes in my life. On the contrary but I have learned from these mistakes and I have transformed them into learning experiences that help me grow and I use these lessons to support others on their journey.
My professional experience of over 20 years in spiritual practice, social work, leadership, and (formal and informal) coaching has given me a profound understanding of human struggles, personal growth, and the power of faith in overcoming adversity. In addition to these experiences, my journey in theology studies and spirituality has been driven by a sincere passion for deepening my own faith and understanding of Christian practices. I have studied various Christian traditions, disciplines and teachings, equipping me with a well-rounded perspective on spiritual growth, inner healing, and faith-based transformation. Prayer and strengthening my personal relationship with God have always been at the heart of my own spiritual practice, and I bring this same commitment into my coaching.
With a trauma-informed approach, I understand the complexities of emotional and spiritual struggles, ensuring that my coaching is not only faith-cantered but also sensitive to your personal history and experiences. Together, we will go beyond surface-level behaviours to uncover the root causes of your challenges—exploring the spiritual triggers, unmet needs, and deeper patterns that may be holding you back. Through a compassionate blend of emotional support, accountability, and spiritual guidance, I provide a nurturing space for healing and transformation.
My approach is not just about offering guidance but about walking alongside you in your faith journey.
How I will help you:
- Together, we will reflect on your values and life journey, exploring what has led you to your current situation.
- Understand the role faith has played into your life and how it has shaped your experiences
- Through reflection, we’ll consider how your life might have unfolded had you taken a different path, helping you gain deeper insight into your choices.
- I’ll help you recognize your strengths, understand how they have served you until now, and explore how they can continue to empower you moving forward.
- We’ll also address your weaknesses, identifying ways to find strength to overcome or manage them effectively.
- I’ll guide you in understanding your challenges on a deeper level and understand how faith can shape your perspective and provide guidance.
- Together, we’ll identify practical solutions and actionable steps to help you start transforming your life, while integrating your faith to amplify your achievements.
- We will celebrate your successes and give thanks to Him who loves us, acknowledging the grace that accompanies your journey.
