COACHING
With Sula Bruce
Professional & personal coaching
for individuals & teams
My name is Sula Bruce
I am a passionate, engaged and loving coach. A witness who guides and cares, coaches and holds space with skill, experience, trust and integrity.
Coaching is a dynamic process that empowers individuals and teams to maximise their potential and enjoy life to the full. Coaching enables a person to externalise internal thought processes so they can be noticed and challenged or reframed into a way that may work better.
I see coaching as a thinking partnership inviting you to spread out the threads of thoughts and beliefs to identify and untie any knots, straighten out any kinks, remove any superfluous threads, and re-package them to move forward with confidence in our personally chosen course of action.
I hold the coaching process and guide my clients to lead their journey in their way.
I am looking for dedicated, passionate engaged clients to work with, and offer 45 minute discovery sessions over Zoom to demonstrate my coaching style, answer any questions and explore whether we want to continue to work together.

Since starting coaching in 2016, I have loved working with clients and witnessing the magic take place. I trained first with the brilliant Relational Dynamics 1st (RD1st) and later with the intuitive Evolution Coaching Academy. I am a member of The Association for Coaching, am listed on the Lifecoach Directory and am completing my ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) Accreditation.

I take part in regular supervision and mentor coaching. For this reason, I record some sessions and submit them to my mentor for feedback, assessment and to ensure my continued professional development.
