I am a fully qualified management coach and mentor with, a special interest in pastoral support, young people and mental health issues.  I have worked and led in front line Christian ministry, for over 14 years, this involved working with teenagers, young adults, and adults of all ages and backgrounds. Prior to this, my career was in fitness, sport, outdoor activities and leisure industries, where I worked in different roles; instructor, management positions and lecturing.

My pastoral care and mentoring was developed further while managing a Christian Outdoor Adventure Centre. In addition to the day to day management, I was responsible for the spiritual input to both the team and guests alike.

From 2014-2019 I worked as a Railway Chaplain for the Railway Mission, which was a really good fit for me. I did enjoy it, although challenging at times.

Accompanying someone on this journey of life, I find to be so worthwhile as I love to witness first hand the aha moments in people discovering more about themselves and their creator.

I enjoy mentoring and coaching all people groups, however I do enjoy inspiring and influencing the next generation and I also have a heart for pastors/leaders especially if they have gone through any form of burn out, spiritual depression or intense opposition, as I have.

I have personally experienced many ups and downs, while working in ministry, and so I feel I have many keys for perseverance and overcoming trials.

I really love what I do now, so I decided to set up my own business, SHEFA Coaching. Please visit my website www.shefacoaching.co.uk as this gives more information about my services, packages etc.

Thank you for reading my profile and if there is anything more you would like to know, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Every blessing,
