HI, I’m Katie!
Chartered Coaching Psychologist, accredited Supervisor, researcher, and founder of The Academy of Coaching Psychology.

For around 20 years, I’ve been supporting coaches, leaders, and organizations to create meaningful, sustainable change. My work blends the rigor of academic research with the practical realities of coaching conversations, because I believe evidence-based practice should be accessible, actionable, and deeply human.

I created The Academy of Coaching Psychology to work alongside leading experts in coaching psychology to provide coaches with a reflective, supportive space where they can grow with clarity and confidence. Whether you’re working toward accreditation or deepening your existing practice, we’re here to help you navigate your development with professionalism and heart.
