Counselling & Coaching through an IFS Lens

Take Time to Embark

You are a living, breathing ‘human becoming’, evolving and discovering your way through life. Sometimes you fly, sometimes you get stuck. Along the way, you may slip sideways or fall backwards.

Every journey of self-discovery begins with one simple step. However daunting that first step may seem, Embark Counselling & Coaching will support and guide you from start to finish. IFS therapy offers you a guiding light and inner compass to safely navigate your pathway through your unique inner landscape.

 Counselling is to have someone walking side-by-side with you, learning from your past to put you on the right path and navigating the hazards to give you strength and courage to continue your onward journey. 

Coaching is to look boldly into the future and design a fulfilling life you can aspire to. A meaningful life that has its foundations in your unique strengths and core values

Internal Family Systems - IFS is a transformative tool that conceives of every human being as a system of protective and wounded inner parts led by a core Self. Through IFS therapy you can begin to understand your past, present and future better with more health, happiness and trust in your Self.

Are you ready to Embark on your journey of self-discovery?

There is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to feel. We are all born as unique individuals and our experiences and life events shape us in different ways.

Whether you're seeking therapy to address the persistent gloom of depression or negative anxious thoughts, coping with the profound pain of losing a loved one or another significant life event - or you’re searching for meaning and purpose in life - having the support of a therapist can be invaluable.

Whatever your reason for being here, I assure you, it’s a good place to start.

Embarking on a therapeutic voyage to navigate challenges and find fulfillment is to reveal hidden clues that may explain past choices and current situations. It's a courageous process of self-awareness, guided entirely at your own pace

Curiosity leads to answers. Calibration brings us back to wholeness.

  • My time working with Lucy has left an imprint on my life and it is something I will never forget. In a warm and inviting safe space, she patiently helped me navigate my challenging upbringing, understand my behaviours and practice self compassion. Lucy's expertise and holistic approach helped me find my sense of self and also gain the tools I need to enable me to continue to flourish. Thank you for everything.

  • “Thank you so much for your commitment to my well-being. It goes way beyond any expectation I could ever have. Your implicit understanding and non-judgemental approach leave me speechless! I really appreciate all that you do. “

  • “My coaching sessions with Lucy really have been transformational and I cannot thank her enough. Lucy’s gentle yet positive advice and coaching encouraged me to question my self-perceptions, establish my values, what I want from life going forward and to take steps to achieve this lifestyle. One of the most important things I learned was that other people are not judging me and almost certainly do not see me as I thought they did. This was blocking me from reaching out to others, as an introvert. Instead, this has given me the confidence to make an effort with people and it has already been a revelation. I have a very different outlook on life in just a few short weeks, a renewed energy. I would wholeheartedly recommend your coaching.”

  • “I did some coaching sessions with Lucy, The sessions were very thought-provoking but that didn’t end in the room itself as on discussions between us both there was “homework” which was great as the weeks flowed so well and the journey wasn’t broken by time. The work is done by yourself, at no point did I feel influenced, hurried or judged just fully supported and respected by Lucy in every way and her knowledge and personality reflect on her style of coaching. If you need any guidance in your life I would wholeheartedly recommend Lucy. It is the one journey I would want to do with no one else.“

    Embark Client

  • “I was stuck and unsure of what I wanted to do with my life. The structured sessions with Lucy helped me to focus on what I truly wanted for my future health and happiness. She was brilliant, taking time at each stage to ensure that I was supported. It was hard as I needed to take an honest look at my behaviours and work on how I could change my days to give me something that I would value more. Lucy worked with me, gently and incisively, enabling me to put together some goals. It was so empowering, so worthwhile. I can feel the tangible benefit of working with Lucy and am very thankful to her for all her care and support.”

    Embark Client

  • “I was at a point in my life when I had lots of different ideas and possibilities zooming around in my head but was lacking any real direction and didn't know where to start, or even what I should be starting on! Through the coaching process, Lucy helped me really consider my underlying motivations and steered me on a path which took into account all of the factors of my life and how I could build a meaningful project without compromising my commitment to raising my children and supporting their needs. I am now aware that I need to prioritise self-care and build it into my weeks as a necessity and not a self-indulgent luxury but I also needed an outline plan for a purposeful project outside of the home. “

    Embark Client

  • “I was feeling stuck in a rut and needed a change in my career but was uncertain about which direction to go in. Lucy worked with me over four sessions to identify my core values and figure out what would make for a fulfilling work/life balance. She was a great listener, full of ideas, and incorporated lots of holistic practices from the other modalities she’s trained in. I feel excited about the future in a way that I haven’t in a long time thanks to our work together.”
