Hello and welcome to Coaching Young Minds!
I offer mental health coaching services for kids and teens aged from 4-19 years old. My 1:1 coaching sessions are all about empowering young minds with effective coping strategies that will help them navigate life's challenges.
I meet them at where they currently are (instead of delving into the past). We look at what they most want to change. Together we work through small steps towards their chosen goal to get them where they want to be, or what they want to achieve.

HOW COACHING CAN HELP YOUR CHILD
Coaching can boost confidence and self esteem. Together we can set and achieve goals and develop important life skills such as communication and problem-solving. And the best part? Coaching provides a safe supportive environment for your child to explore their thoughts and feelings to gain a better understanding of themselves.
YOUR CHEERLEADER
TAILORED TO YOU
A PLACE OF COMFORT
Coaching is like having a personal cheerleader for your goals, both for your home and learning life, its a safe space where you can talk about what you want achieve, what's holding you back, and how to overcome it. With coaching, you can learn new skills, get clarity and be the best version of yourself.
Each session is tailored to the child/teen to make it fun and interesting. We explore and investigate and come up with solutions. We can be creative, make playlists, play games even dance our way through if we need to move! There is no one way to achieve overcoming problems.
I am a qualified Reiki Master and we can incorporate some reiki to help with settling any nerves and helping with any anxiety - it's a really good therapy to feel balanced and can help with sleep. So there is lots of ways we can make your sessions suit your child/teen.

“Zoe was fantastic with my son, he learnt so much and it really helped him to manage his emotions, we hardly notice meltdowns any more as he is able to regulate himself. Zoe is so kind and gentle, she just got my son and he loved all the sessions with her."

I have lived in St Neots most of my life and am based in Eaton Ford. I live with my husband and daughter along with our 2 cats and a crazy cockapoo (who gets extreme FOMO). I love eating yummy food, being on holiday, shopping, getting creative, reiki, crystals, laughing and being with my important people, plus there's nothing like a cuddling up on the sofa watching a film!
I have over 17 years of experience of supporting people with their wellbeing. However it wasn't until I began working in a primary school that gave me a unique perspective on the mental health struggles that children (both neurodivergent and neurotypical) face every day. This propelled me into looking for a suitable role to play in helping them. Then in 2023 I came across a wonderful lady called Nicola Edwards who trained me as a Mental Health Coach and I knew it was meant to be.
As a child and a teenager I experienced challenging times and emotions and took those into adulthood with me. I understand how difficult it can be when your world feels out of control and you don't know how to make sense of your feelings whilst constantly being stuck in a fight/flight/freeze response. Back then I didn't have the knowledge or the tools to help myself.....but I do now and I want to share them!
I hold a Level 4 Diploma in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Coaching qualification, I am fully insured with a DBS. My training is accredited by the ACCPH and IPC.
