Self-Help Book Coaching: Guided Support for Personal Growth
Use your favourite self-help books as a framework for reflection, accountability, and lasting change.
Do you ever feel like you know what you need to do, but can’t seem to make it happen?
Maybe you’ve read all the self-help books, listened to podcasts, highlighted the theory but when it comes to applying it in your own life, something gets in the way.
You feel stuck, alone, and frustrated with yourself. Maybe even ashamed for not having “figured it out” by now, because you’re a quick learner, you’re thoughtful, and independent.
I want you to know: this is normal. We’re not meant to figure everything out on our own. We learn, heal, and grow best in connection.
Why work with me?
As a qualified coach and psychotherapist (BACP registered), I understand how unconscious patterns quietly shape our lives. I bring a safe pair of hands, experience working with a wide range of issues, and a deep respect for your pace and process.
We use a self-help book of your choice (or I make a recommendation) as a starting point. Together, we’ll:
- Read and reflect on key sections
- Identify where you’re getting stuck and why
- Agree on simple next steps to try between sessions
- Use gentle tools like EFT tapping (if you wish) to help you process emotional sticking points
The book provides the scaffolding, and the conversation helps us gently uncover what’s been holding you back. This approach gives you a safe, structured way to explore deeper patterns without feeling exposed.
What you’ll gain
- Relief – you’re not trying to figure it all out alone anymore
- A clearer understanding of yourself and your patterns
- Gentle accountability that helps you move from insight to action
- More compassion and curiosity toward your inner life
- Tools (including optional EFT tapping) to release blocks and move forward
- Knowledge and confidence that provide the foundations for more aligned decisions
You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need a safe space to explore, reflect, and grow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to pick a book before I start?
Not at all, you can bring one you’d like to work through, or I can suggest options.
What if I don’t keep up with the reading?
That’s fine. The book is just our starting point, the real work happens in conversation.
Is this therapy?
No it’s more of a coaching approach because it’s designed to be intentionally focused and solution orientated. But my therapy background means I can contain deeper issues if they surface during our work together and I will be honest if I think therapy would be more appropriate.
What kinds of issues can I work on?
Many clients come with procrastination, perfectionism, self-doubt, boundaries, or simply feeling stuck despite trying lots of self guided solutions. You don’t need a neatly packaged “problem”, just a sense you’d like things to change.
How often are the sessions?
Every two weeks. This gives time for reflection and action between meetings, while keeping momentum.
Can I spread payments out?
Yes – each package can be paid in full or in instalments.
What if I want to stop?
You’re never trapped. If it’s not working for you, we’ll agree a respectful way to wrap up.
I’m nervous! How do I know if it’s right for me?
That’s normal. I offer a free 30-minute ‘discovery’ call to talk it through and see if it feels like a good fit.
