About me

I am an executive and business coach, PCC ICF. I work with entrepreneurs and senior leaders, and I run mastermind groups, my own group programmes and strategy sessions.

With companies I work as an organisational consultant and team coach, helping leaders and management teams raise their effectiveness, move through change and deliver demanding strategic work.

I am also a commercial litigation lawyer with 25 years of experience in complex disputes. Systemic thinking, the ability to read a situation quickly, to see the interests of every side and to find workable solutions are now a central part of my coaching practice.

In my work I combine current neuroscience, psychology, business coaching and many years of working with senior leaders.

I work across three disciplines at once

  • Commercial litigation lawyer, 25 yearsI know how an agreement becomes a document that holds, rather than a page of good intentions.
  • PsychologistI see what sits behind a conflict: unspoken expectations, fear, the fight for recognition.
  • Executive and business coach, PCC ICFI help people and teams talk to each other so that disagreements stop piling up for years.

My approach

How I work

  • Full confidentiality

    Everything said in a session stays between us. Nothing is passed on to third parties.

  • An integrative approach

    I draw on coaching, psychology and neuroscience to get the best result for each client.

  • No judgement

    I take you as you are. In a session there are no right and wrong answers.

  • Online

    I work online over Zoom with clients around the world.

  • Flexible hours

    Entrepreneurs are busy people, so I offer morning, daytime and evening slots at short notice.

  • An individual plan

    Every engagement starts with understanding your situation in depth. The programme is designed around your goals.

A separate area of my practice

Business partnership support

Helping co-owners agree on what matters and put it into a Partnership Agreement - at the start, in conflict, or on the way out.

Cases

What the work leads to

Settling into a new country and launching a business (Spain)

An entrepreneur who moved from Russia to Europe four years ago. The move turned out to be a challenge: adapting to an unfamiliar business environment held back the launch of his own project, despite the ideas and the potential.

The task

  • Adapt to a new business environment, work through the fear and doubt
  • Decide whether a business partner was needed
  • Build a clear plan for launching the project in a new country

The result

  • The client settled in and regained confidence in himself
  • Bought premises and opened a restaurant in a Spanish resort town
  • Reached profitability almost immediately; the business is running successfully
  • Now planning to open further restaurants

The sessions helped me get past my internal barriers, and now I have successfully launched my business.

A successful promotion (United Kingdom)

A communications director at a leading international company, facing a promotion through three demanding selection stages, including interviews with the CEO and the shareholders.

The task

  • Handle the internal pressure and doubt before a decisive step in her career
  • Work through the fear and build confidence
  • Find a balance between professional ambition and inner steadiness

The result

  • Confidence in her own abilities and readiness for high-pressure situations
  • A mindset focused on opportunities and strengths
  • The client got the role without going through all the stages: the remaining interviews were cancelled

Her distinctive approach, combining coaching theory with mediation techniques, allowed me not only to develop as a leader but to think strategically about the problems in front of me.

Questions and answers

Common questions

What is coaching, and how is it different from therapy or consulting?+

A consultant gives you answers, a therapist works mostly with the past. Coaching works with the present and the future: I ask the questions that help you find your own answer and turn it into action. Where a psychological background is needed, I bring it in - I am a psychologist as well as a coach.

How do I know I am ready for coaching?+

You do not have to be a hundred per cent ready. An internal request is enough: «I want change and I am prepared to be honest about it.» If you are unsure, we start with an introductory call - a safe way to find out whether the format suits you.

How are sessions organised?+

The format is flexible: online, usually 60 minutes, typically once a week, adjusted to your pace. Homework when it is useful, and access between sessions for support. After each meeting you leave with concrete thoughts and a plan.

Do you work in English?+

Yes. I work in both English and Russian, with clients in the United Kingdom, Spain, the UAE, Kazakhstan, Turkey and Russia.
