Why Hiraeth Coaching?

Hiraeth is a Welsh word with no direct English translation, it approximates to a yearning for something lost.  A lot of people I talk to are looking for something more from their work or longing for a more fulfilling working life.

My training

After many years of volunteer mentoring and supporting colleagues with challenges at work I completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Career Coaching and graduated in 2017.

I am a member of the UK Register of Career Development Professionals and follow the Career Development Institute’s Code of Ethics.

I have a Certificate in Youth Coaching & Mentoring and am a trained volunteer mentor with One Million Mentors

I enjoy working one to one with individuals seeking to develop in their roles and careers, supporting them to identify their talents and aspirations and explore how to maximise the opportunities available.

My coaching conversations are always driven by the client.  I use open questioning to encourage my clients to explore their aspirations and identify goals.  This can be a broad exploratory conversation or a focused discussion on progessing towards your career goals.

“I had a fantastic session with Rhiannon.  Being new to career coaching I wasn’t sure what to expect but she gave me the time and space to talk and gave me lots of encouragement.  During the session I was able to identify strategies to help me reach my next career goal.  Rhiannon helped me to break down my goal into bite sized actions which made me feel less overwhelmed. I left the session feeling extremely positive and able to start taking the action I needed to work towards my goal.”

“I worked with Rhiannon when I was coming to the end of a fixed term contract and was unsure of my next career step.  She supported me to reflect on what I was looking for and helped me to see that my job hunt which had felt daunting was achievable.”
