about
We have everything we need to thrive inside of us ALREADY. Everybody has unlimited potential! By recognising our inner resources that are available to us we are able to grow mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. It is my greatest privilege to educate, assist and inspire people to find their inner resources that will enable them to become the best possible version of themselves that they can be, to live a happy fulfilling life.
Meet Catherine.....
Emotional Resilience Advocate.
IKIGAI LIFE PURPOSE COACH.
For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to help family and friends emotionally. Not by telling them what to do, but by actively listening and then maybe challenging their thoughts. In the year 2000 I found myself struggling as a single mother of 3 young children and although I had external support, my knowledge and skills of resilience where minimal. My ultimate aim way back in the year 2002 when hypnosis peaked my curiosity, was to get to the core issues and be able to mentally and emotionally help myself, family and friends to become wonderfully happier beings. As this sense of purpose has grown and evolved to include the connection of the whole bio-psycho-social environment that incorporates not only mental and emotional, but also the physical and spiritual aspects. I was fascinated by the connection between resilience and ikigai life purpose coaching and how they blend together naturally, thus taking a new role in coaching.Learning through life's experiences that shape our existence, raising 3 beautiful children and furthering my holistic psychological education has bought me to where I feel passionate and confident in my Quest to help others become Happy on the Inside and the Outside.
I have qualifications in Resource Therapy, Gestalt, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Basic Counselling, Belief clearing,Family Constellations, Ikigai Life Coaching and (Hypnotherapy unregistered)
Interests and Aspirations;
Research presents endless possibilities which I find incredibly exciting. Through our emotions and experiences our curiosities and direction arise.
Some of my own include;
The need to educate people in Emotional Resilience and to take time for their Mental Health Maintenance.
Don't wait till problems snowball into something too big to handle.
Suppressed emotions and unspoken anxiety in the community, including Manxiety.

Thank you Cathy for making my son Noah who is only six how to enjoy day to day activities without worrying about what he is going to worry about next. He now wakes up with a huge smile on his face and finds school days less of a challenge, also you have taught him how to deal with his feelings and what they mean. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Little boys can the challenging." Jo L-S.
"Cathy is so calm and lovely and her skills are impressive. I really leave feeling calm and clear after each session. Thank you Cathy." Jules J.
"I've got to say I was astounded at how quick I noticed a 'shift' in my thought pattern after attending a session with Cathy. I highly recommend, all you have to lose is what weighs us down and what you gain is immeasurable peace within yourself. Thank you." L.D.
"I have to admit that I was always a little skeptical about hypnotherapy! But I've known Cathy for more than ten years, so when she said she would be doing hypnotherapy I actually asked her if she could help me. I had some issues that I wasn't sure how to cope with. Cathy was so good in helping me face my issues and gave me tools to deal with when I was confronted with them. I can say without a doubt that Cathy is very professional, caring and gentle. I can highly recommend Cathy to anyone needing help." Dianne.
