My name is Claire Knight. I am a qualified Coach and Mindfulness Teacher with over 1,000 hours experience. I trained at a Coaching Centre of Excellence and I happily and continually study and research my crafts. Helping people reach states of Emotional Wellbeing is my passion, and I absolutely adore the brilliance and usefulness of Coaching, which I combine with Mindfulness, an awareness of Consciousness and a therapeutic approach . In essence, I believe that we are here to transcend our challenges and transform our lives.
You may be feeling stuck, anxious, stressed or that something just isn't right in your life. Your feelings are a call to action - they mean that some aspects of your life need to be explored, accepted, healed or changed. These aspects can be difficult to confront, but in my experience, that confrontation leads to learning, growth, peace and more joy and happiness, which is why we are here - to learn, grow, connect with others and enjoy life fully!
I first encountered a Coaching approach on a personal basis when I was in my early thirties. I was feeling like my corporate career was a chapter that was ready to close; I felt unseated and a bit lost. Without realising it, I had also suffered from Anxiety for most of my adult life, particularly in a work environment. My first Coaching session involved a lot of questions (from the coach) lots of thinking and reflecting (from me) and a process of visualisation. This gave me so much. I had experienced talking therapies like counselling before, but this was very different. By the end of the hour, there had been a shift in my thinking and importantly, how I felt about myself and my future. I felt buoyed up, positive and strong; like I had tapped back into the Wisest Version of Me, and had discovered a knowledge and wisdom that had previously been drowned out by loud, intrusive thoughts. Looking back, the session set me on a course and in time, I found a loving relationship, changed career, moved to the countryside and started a family. Of course, life still throws me some big challenges but I am very grateful that I learned a Coaching mindset, along with other tools and therapies, to help me 'steady my ship; and navigate through whatever comes along.
Over time, I developed my 'tool box' to help others find higher states of happiness, contentment and empowerment. This approach has helped me see the innate wisdom and strength in human beings, and I look forward to helping you discover your own wisdom, strength and power, if you choose to embark on this journey.
I offer you my warmth, empathy, coaching skills, knowledge of the human condition, experience and learnings. I also offer you my belief in you. I structure our sessions to help you find answers, solutions, insights and perspectives. I shine a light on who you really are, and I'm particularly interested in your strengths, qualities and what makes you, you. I join you on a journey of self-discovery! Together, we look at problems with objectivity and calm, and we find the solutions that are waiting to be found. We look at patterns of thinking and behaving that are not serving you and explore ways to break those and do things that work. I help you use your gut and heart when your head is going around in circles! I am your advocate but will also gently challenge you and I may give you homework! I mentally hold your hand when issues feel painful and I get to witness your joy, lightness and power when you find ways to navigate the difficulties.
This beautiful (and often fun!) process happens in a confidential and peace-orientated space, either in person or remotely, which allows you to feel safe and energetically held. It enables you to be really honest with yourself about what is going on for you, and to find a way through the issues that are getting in the way of your happiness and full potential.

I practise from my home office in the village of Heddington, near Calne in Wiltshire. I also coach remotely by Zoom or telephone and work with clients in different time zones.
My office is surrounded by beautiful countryside which provides a lovely, nurturing environment in which to experience and deliver coaching.
