Why Work With Carys?
Coaching Style
Carys’ coaching style is democratic and developmental. By working with her clients her goal is to help them identify their hidden potential and draw out the best in them by encouraging motivation and inspiration, efficiency and productivity, creativity and empowerment, building confidence and self-belief, commitment to objectives and long-term development and enhanced growth. Her preferred techniques are cognitive behavioural coaching and the use of creative and written exercises, although she will work with clients to find techniques and models which get the best out of them.
