Julia has been an Executive Coach for 16 years and enjoys working with individuals and organisations to determine what is truly at the heart of an issue, so that coaching can be targeted and effective.

The key characteristics of Julia’s coaching style are her warmth, insight and solutions-focus. Clients value that she “listens without judgement and creates a safe space for true honesty”.
