About Alive and Thrive Wellbeing Limited

Hi, my name is Tom.  I specialise in coaching leaders and managers and look forward to supporting you wherever you are in your career or life journey.  

You may have just been promoted, or perhaps appointed to a new post or organisation.  You might be in middle or senior management.  Whatever your unique situation each has its own responsibilities and challenges.  These may relate to your role, relationships, the level of support you receive, your degree of autonomy, your resilience to the demands being placed upon you, the change taking place at work or home, your overall wellbeing, health and happiness, or something else.  You may be looking for a new role or job in management.  Wherever you are on your management road I'm here to help you clear the mist, untie the knots, and creatively work out some achievable solutions to your issues.

My accreditations include an MBA, Chartered FCIPD and ILM Level 5 neurochemistry-based coach.  I am qualified to deliver fIRO-B psychometrics and am an accredited coach with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC).  I have a background in senior management in the public sector.  I have formally assessed many public and private sector organisations against their application of the European for Quality Management Excellence Model (EFQM).  I have delivered much training to senior and middle managers across a number of sectors and been coaching across my career.

Hi, my name is Catherine and I am a Positive Psychology Practitioner. I have a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology and Psychology Coaching and am a member of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC).  

My interest in assisting people stems from a career in education formerly teaching and coaching swimming and latterly delivering speech and language therapy to pupils with autism.   I have been inspired by the humanistic psychology approach of Carl Rogers i.e. the self-actualisation of individuals through their own realisation and capabilities. I will listen in a non-judgmental, collaborative manner and ask questions with a willingness from you to consider achievable aspirations.  Together with the tools and evidence based techniques of positive psychology there is a focus on strengths not weaknesses to help you live and thrive at being your best self.

Positive psychology, although relatively new in the field of psychology (founded by Martin Seligman in 1998), has provided people with a way forward that no longer assumes a position of ill-health.  The opportunity to build on one's strengths and the support to make changes provide confidence.  

Positive psychology focuses on how positivity can develop your motivation and wellbeing. Time is given for you to unravel a particular issue in a confidential environment.  Examples of my clients include:-

• Managers: exploring how you engage a team in an online platform.  
• Parents: stuck in a new role as 'teacher' particularly after the Covid ‘lockdown’, this may be your first step. 
• Women:  juggling demands of family and work life balance, take some time for yourself to be heard in a safe and confidential environment.  
• Students: with study and career decisions make a space for gaining clarity on your future.  

Your first session is that of an introduction.  Please email me, I will be happy to assist you.
