Licensed Firework coaches

Jonas Berends

Belgium, Antwerp & Brussels areas

I coach IT staff who venture into management positions, staff working in the financial sector (banks mostly), plus employees considering self-employment. I coach in Dutch (mother tongue), English and French. I love to coach outdoors (running or walking).

Do you know that feeling that you just can't put your finger on it? We will work in ways that allow you to put that finger in the exact right spot, and we'll do so in a trusting, safe and fiercely courageous space.

 

Melissa Whiting

Australia

I support people to feel good about themselves and to create lives that they actually like.

I help them learn to feel comfortable and confident in their own skin, to expand their self-awareness, self-acceptance, self-belief and self-trust in order to live more bravely and create more joy and satisfaction in their lives, both at work and at home.

I work with individuals who are experiencing self-doubts, over-thinking, over-working, second guessing, worrying about what everyone else thinks, feeling held back, frustrated, stuck and generally dissatisfied in their careers and lives.

My clients have mostly been early and mid-career professionals but have also included students, musicians, sole business owners and returners after a career break.

Sarah Partridge

Surrey

My coaching specialisms include Private, Executive and Leadership coaching focussing on career transition, resilience building, and confidence development. I use a combination of rigorous evidence-based techniques to support my work including Positive Psychology and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I also offer Resilience and Wellbeing Workshops to enable organisations to thrive.

I have a very approachable and open coaching style, but I'm not afraid to challenge my clients if they choose to be challenged. I like to work using tried and tested tools and techniques that have psychological evidence under-pinning their efficacy.

Gemma Rogers

Cheltenham

I support adults through mid-life career change and students reconsidering their direction during or after University.

Wherever you are in life, you want to make a change in your career, but don’t know how or where to start. Perhaps you’re experiencing a lack of confidence and sense of feeling stuck. Having experienced my own sense of unease within my previous career in fashion, I understand that change can feel big and scary! I attribute my big career shift down to my own work through the Firework programme.

I became a licenced Firework Career Change Coach in 2018 and am also a qualified Humanistic Integrative Counsellor and Children's and Young Person's Counsellor. Change often comes with a lot of anxiety and stress and I combine my coaching with more therapeutic work to support you through the challenges you face.

Kat Atherton

London, UK

I coach individuals who are on the hunt for more fulfiling work. I offer a structured and holistic approach to help clients understand who they are and what they want as well as a process for generating new career options. Encouraging clients to push themselves beyond their comfort zone to discover opportunities and generate new perspectives is the heart of what I do.

I'm based in London but offer sessions via Zoom – many of my clients are based overseas. Typically we'll work together on a weekly basis for a minimum of 3 months.

Hazel Martin

London

Based in SW London, UK, I work with SW or Central  London face to face as well as UK and worldwide clients virtually including Skype. Typically, I coach individuals in their 40s from the technology, financial, not for profit and charity sectors. 

I help those who feel lost, confused, or stuck in a job they no longer enjoy and who want to make a change but don't know where to start, or what to do instead and who want a career that is meaningful, fulfilling and purposeful. 

Hazel offers a comprehensive, structured career change coaching process, specifically designed to help you get really clear on what your ideal career would be so that you:

Duncan Muller

London, UK (west or central)

I unlock the potential of individuals and teams in creative industries. They’re ambitious, enthusiastic, fun, open-minded and curious. They want to make things better for themselves and are committed to change. And that’s why I love working with them.

Career Coaching - helps people find their new career direction, overcome what’s holding their career back. They have clarity on what’s next and how to get there. They enjoy more fulfilling careers.

Leadership Coaching - shifts leaders from micro-managers to big picture, system-aware leaders. They show more self-awareness, interact effectively, motivate better, and have more conscious leadership.

Team Coaching - transforms teams into high-performing teams. They show more positivity and increased productivity, they trust more, there’s more constructive debate. There’s also more commitment, accountability and attention on team results.

Liz Taplin

Plymouth, Devon

Liz is a full-time life coach serving the teaching profession, where she loves working with clients asking the big questions such as ‘What should I do with my life?’ The majority of her current work focuses on supporting teachers who are seeking career-change. With forty years of teaching experience across all age sectors (including leadership and teacher training) and having trained with some of the world’s leading coaching organisations, Liz is well-placed to serve her audience. And in addition, she has had her own experience of leaving teaching (twice!).

Liz embraces her spirit of adventure with a playful yet common-sense approach. This serves her clients well as they are often feeling anxious, guilty and lost when it comes to leaving a profession they thought they would spend their working lifetime in. Just as the Firework programme suggests, Liz takes her clients on a journey from them being a passive bystander in their life to becoming an intrepid explorer who seizes the day.
