About
A practice grounded in noticing patterns and widening perspectives
People don’t come to this work because they’re struggling to cope. They come because the pace, the responsibility, or the way things are set up no longer feels right — even though, from the outside, life still looks fine.
I know what it’s like to feel busy, capable, and somehow still not moving in the way you expected.
Not in crisis. Not falling apart.
Just on a bit of a hamster wheel — doing a lot, carrying a lot, and wondering why things aren’t shifting in the direction you thought they would.
You can usually see the next step. You’ve thought it through. You might even be very good at helping other people untangle their situations. But when it comes to your own life, everything feels more loaded. There’s more at stake. More people involved. More spinning plates.
Over time, I’ve noticed that people rarely need more insight or better advice. What they usually need is space to slow things down enough to see what they’re actually responding to — the patterns they keep repeating, the roles they’ve slipped into, and the wider systems shaping their choices. When that becomes clearer, different options tend to show up.
This isn’t about motivation, pushing harder, or fixing yourself. It’s about having a steady place to step out of the spin — somewhere you can think properly, without performing insight, justifying decisions, or rushing towards an answer.
We don’t just talk things through. We pay attention to patterns — in work, in relationships, and in how things are felt in the body — as well as the wider context you’re moving within. Not to analyse you, but to understand the situation more clearly.
The way I work isn’t purely conversational. Sometimes that means using simple physical or visual ways of exploring what’s happening when words aren’t quite enough. Nothing elaborate. Nothing forced. Just different ways of seeing. I explore the same questions in my art practice, working with materials and embodied processes to notice patterns of thought, behaviour, and change beyond conversation alone.
This work isn’t about becoming someone else or blowing things up. It’s about finding steadier ground — so the next step feels deliberate, not rushed.
About me
I work this way because it’s how I make sense of my own life — through noticing patterns rather than pushing for answers. My background sits across systemic coaching, embodied practices, and art-making, all of which train the same muscle: paying attention to what’s actually happening, not just what’s being said. I don’t approach this work as an expert with solutions, but as someone skilled at creating the conditions where things can be seen more clearly. That orientation shapes everything in this practice.
If you want to understand how the practice is structured and whether this way of working suits you, the Practice Details will give you a clear sense of what to expect.

THE MURPHY BISHOP EXPERIENCE
Talking about myself doesn’t always come naturally. I’m more at home guiding others through movement, meditation, and wellbeing than being in the spotlight myself.
But as part of the Murphy Bishop Systemic Coaching Diploma, we were invited to reflect on how this work has shaped us—from the inside out.
So instead of a traditional presentation, I made a short film: a visual meditation on what I’ve learned, how coaching has transformed me, and the quieter truths that often go unsaid.

Internal Development Goals (IDG)
The IDG SwissHub (Internal Development Goals) invited creatives to submit works, written or visual for inclusion in two books about Internal Development Goals and Leadership.
When it was first mentioned to me, I thought, I have nothing to offer, as I know nothing about leadership. But like an itch that I couldn’t stop scratching, I kept on thinking about it. The deadline was fast approaching, I was recovering from yet another cold (I hate Swiss winters) and I thought “just try it and see.”
You can see my entry here and I’m delighted to say that my artwork was chosen for the book covers! If you’re interested in Internal Development (as well as how art reflects ideas) then you can pre-order Book 1 and Book 2 via the links.
Play Cards
Symbols. Shapes. Stories. Because as an artist, I’m always looking for contrasts, patterns and new ways of seeing things.
These cards weren’t made in Canva.
They were carved, inked, and hand-printed in my studio—each one shaped by years of creative practice & my experience of helping people to express what’s happening in their life,
I created them to help map out systems, to shift your perspective, spark inner knowing, and map the patterns you can feel but can’t always name.
