Navigate Your Career Journey with Confidence and Clarity
Whether you’re returning to work after a break, seeking to advance your career, or
considering a complete change of direction, professional transitions can be
challenging.
Through a sensitive, open, empathetic and non-judgmental approach, I provide
personalized coaching support to help you build confidence, clarify your goals, and
create sustainable strategies for success.
Who I Work With
I specialize in supporting professionals who are navigating significant career
transitions. My clients include those who are:
- Building confidence after career breaks
- Seeking career advancement
- Seeking career Change
- Exploring new professional directions
- Adjusting to new parenthood
- Balancing family and career commitments
My Approach
Rooted in relational dynamics (an coaching approach that uses patterns of
interactions and behaviour), my coaching recognizes that our professional lives are
deeply interconnected with our personal relationships, family responsibilities, and
inner experiences.
Through our work together, we’ll explore not just what you want to achieve, but how
you can authentically show up in your professional life while honouring your values
and commitments.
I create a safe, supportive space where you can explore challenges, celebrate
strengths, and develop practical strategies for moving forward with confidence.
Professional Background & Qualifications
I bring decades of management experience and currently serve as a member of the
senior leadership team in an international human rights organization. This
combination of practical leadership and management experience and commitment to
social justice informs my coaching approach.
My qualifications include an MA in English Literature and graduate training from
the Tavistock Centre for psychotherapy (foundation level). As a qualified graduate of
Relational Dynamics (accredited through Culture at Work), I have completed more
than 70 hours of coaching with professionals facing similar transitions to yours.
This blend of academic rigour and extensive practical experience allows me to offer
coaching that is both intellectually grounded and deeply human-centred.
What We’ll Work On Together
Every coaching relationship is unique, but common areas we explore include:
Building Confidence: Reconnecting with your professional identity and capabilities
after time away or during transitions.
Clarifying Goals: Understanding what you truly want from your career and how it
fits with your broader life vision.
Managing Competing Demands: Developing strategies for balancing professional
ambitions with family responsibilities and personal well-being.
Navigating Relationships: Understanding how workplace dynamics, family
expectations, and personal boundaries intersect.
Practical Planning: Creating concrete steps and realistic timelines for achieving
your goals.

Client Testimonials
‘My coaching sessions have been transformative. Atira has helped me navigate
some thorny leadership challenges in-line with my values and helped me navigate
how to balance my role alongside parenting. As a coach, Atira is highly insightful,
empathetic and non-judgemental.’ Katherine, Digital Transformations and
Strategy Director
‘Startup life can be very fast paced, and ensuring time is scheduled to reflect with
somebody who is neutral to the situation to ask the right questions and to
support thinking about situations in a more holistic way helped me to process anxiety
and my own self-esteem.
Further, it helped me to reflect on past work experiences and how that might be
impacting on my current behaviours. I would love the opportunity to continue’ Marc,
Tiney (early years education startup)
‘The coaching was a really good time to reflect with someone external 1:1 about my
experience so far as a manager and what elements of managing people I struggle
with. I liked the open and safe space to be as honest as I wanted.’ Emily, Tiney
