Empowering Your Mind
What is coaching?
Coaching is a partnership with a client where we learn about ourselves and our neurobiology and how we uniquely view the world. Coaching looks like high quality conversations identifying the different skills and mindset needed to transform how you manage life. Coaching is future-focused and builds on your existing strengths.
Together we look at what works and doesn't work for you, we examine your style of thinking, emotions and behaviour and to do to optimise what work for you to deal with current and future challenges or opportunities.
Coaching helps to find your way to health physical and mental wellbeing where brain, body and mind are in balance for all aspects of life.

As a coach I do not assess, diagnose or treat mental health conditions. Coaching can not replace a medical doctor or psychologist but instead complements the work of clinicians by providing additional or collaborative support to help you implement lasting change.

Health & ADHD Coaching with Dr Barbara
At the heart of Dr Barbara’s approach is the unique combination of evidence-based research and compassionate, personalised coaching, aligned with ICF ethics and standards. This blend allows clients to understand not just what they're experiencing—but why, and what they can do about it.
Why It Matters
Scientific research tells us that the mind and body are deeply connected. Gut health, brain function, and emotional wellbeing are all part of the same system. When something is off- whether it’s anxiety, pain, sleep disruption, or behavioural challenges—it can ripple through our whole world impacting our health, work, relationships and success. Dr Barbara draws on her clinical, leadership and coaching knowledge to connect with her clients and families, personalising complex science into practical, everyday tools that make sense for her clients.
How Coaching Helps
Coaching isn’t about “fixing” people—it’s about helping them feel seen, understood, and supported. With warmth and clarity, Barbara works alongside clients to: unpack the gut-brain-emotion connection, explore stress triggers and behavioural patterns, build practical skills for emotional regulation and resilience, navigate life changes like ADHD diagnosis, anxiety, or school transitions and design supports that foster calm, confidence, and connection.
Coaching sessions are client and family-centred, strengths-based, and grounded in real-life application—not just theory. Whether you’re managing a complex health condition, navigating a new diagnosis for yourself or your child, or simply seeking more balance and clarity, this work helps you build insight and momentum.
