Welcome to Deborah Edwards Coaching.
Hello, I’m Deborah. I am a reflective life coach who is professionally trained in both coaching and therapeutic approaches. From my base in Hertfordshire I support adults and young people who are navigating periods of change, emotional difficulty, or uncertainty, offering a calm and compassionate space to reflect, make sense of experience, and move forwards with confidence and clarity.
How I Work
While traditional life coaching focuses on future goals and action steps, my reflective life coaching blends coaching with therapeutic counselling techniques. This integrated approach means that clients don’t just work on what they want to achieve—they also get to the core of why they might be stuck. Drawing on my extensive background in education, life coaching and my counselling skills, I offer a service unlike many others. Through reflective life coaching, clients are not only guided toward future success but also equipped with a deeper understanding of themselves, using this insight as a springboard for meaningful change and growth. When working with a range of issues such as anxiety, loss, self-doubt or inner conflict, it’s not always easy to find clarity and understand what’s going on beneath the surface. I can support you in developing insight, build emotional awareness, and move at your own pace toward meaningful change.
I offer free 30 minute initial consultations if you'd like to find out more and to see if we could work together. Free consultations can be booked here or via the book online page above.
Alternatively call or email me now!
I hold full insurance with Hiscox and am registered on the renewal service for enhanced DBS.
