"I found that Norman’s introduction to the work we were planning to do together was very clear and methodical. He explained how we were going to work and employed particular tools that enabled me to clarify the areas with which I wanted to engage. I have found Norman’s friendly, though frank and direct interventions, combined with warmth and a lively sense of humour, to be refreshing and facilitative of change."

"My wife introduced me to Norman, she had met him at her evening class and thought he and I would get on; she was right. I am a portrait artist and was in need of de-cluttering my mind and finding some direction. When Norman and I first met I found a warm and sincere open minded gentleman. Norman was able to guide me through my thoughts and remain focused on creating succinct paths through goals with which to make my thoughts become a reality. Always adaptable and flexible it is an immeasurable asset to me to have Norman on my palette."

"It is very easy, when problems and difficulties arise, to simply react to them and ‘muddle through’. In doing so you may sort out matters in a fashion but not bring them to a satisfactory conclusion. Norman helped me to break situations down into manageable pieces. I could then work my way to a satisfactory and final conclusion to situations as they occurred, rather than just reacting to them. Life coaching also helped me to accept how lonely and isolated I felt. Norman was a great help to me. He is genuinely interested in the people he helps and this shows during the sessions."

"It was nice to reflect on the changes in my life over the last five years. The sessions made me reflect on doing things for me, rather than to sort the job or house. It is the reflection that is important to put a person of my age back on track. It also provided a stimulus to make everyday things count and plan those longer term activities which would otherwise be missed."
Healthcare Manager, Hertfordshire
"Norman is a very good listener, non-judgemental and has a common sense approach to Life Coaching. He is realistic, but made me challenge some of my ideas in a positive, constructive way, without ever belittling my ideas. The main benefit I have derived from the sessions is that I have considered and been able to put together ideas that I had not previously thought of, and have formulated a realistic time plan."
