Supporting clients to be the best that they can be is by far and away my greatest motivator. I know how hard the road can be if you are on your own trying to work things out – there is nothing more valuable than a sounding board.

Mindfulness & Wellbeing

Mindfulness is awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgmentally

In our hectic lives, we sometimes forget to check in with ourselves. Therefore, we sometimes don’t realise our wellbeing is suffering until we are struggling because of it

Emma AvhedeManaging Director Hälsa Wellbeing Ltd

I can not recommend Helen more highly I found her fantastic to work with. She really got me focused enabling me to perform to the best of my ability.

Gary BuxtonIntuitive and entrepreneurial Director of IT and operations within Financial Services

I have worked with Helen for a number of years in my role as CEO of Harrogate Homeless Project; Helen is a valued Trustee Board member, offering her extensive expertise in people development and organisational change at a time of growth for the charity. I have also benefited hugely from working with Helen on a personal level, with 121 sessions to explore my own personal development and deal with the challenges of being a female leader and business person. Helen’s support as a coach has been very valuable in developing my strengths and resilience, as well as understanding my relationships with others and how to value my own skills and be my best self. Helen’s warm, empathic and perceptive manner inspires my confidence and trust in her skills and I would recommend her services to anyone, either on a personal or business coaching basis.

Liz HancockChief Executive Harrogate Homeless Project Ltd

Helen has guided me through a time of redundancy, she has enabled me to understand my worth in the job market and has used her vast experiences in the field of HR to help explore the right roles for me. She is simply lovely to talk with, Helen is warm and wise. A credit to her profession and her clients.

Pete CookDynamic L&D professional enabling organisations to flourish

I had a number of sessions with Helen over several months following a career change. I found Helen’s approach and style very supportive. She offered constructive challenge at appropriate times and the discussions were always informative, engaging and stimulating. The sessions covered a mixture of topics and the free flowing nature did not limit the breadth of the discussion as many aspects of life are intertwined. I enjoyed the dialogue with Helen and found the experience of great benefit.

Cameron WardManagement Consultant

I had the pleasure of working with Helen when she was the HR Director of Global Research at ABN AMRO. She was one of the most professional HR advisor that I have worked with and always showed respect to all of her HR colleagues as well her clients within the Business. Helen was always aware that individuals alone did not make a successful HR department and that it was a team effort with everyone playing their part. Helen always made time to provide advice and council even when she herself was under considerable pressure (Bonus and Salary review spring to mind!).
Her warm and generous personality made her a very approachable HR advisor and I am not surprised that she has branched out into the coaching and mentoring arena as this will suit her skills perfectly.
I have no hesitation in recommending Helen for any role she seeks as I know she will be committed and passionate in whatever she chooses to do

I have been incredibly impressed by Helen’s insight into me and the value she has added to me with senior management performance development. l have no hesitation in recommending Helen and her work.

Amyn FazalExperienced NED

Helen Crossland is a close friend and also work colleague of mine. Helen is very “real” – she doesn’t dress up her own story, instead, she shares it with the upmost honesty in order to be able to help others. Through this approach she has probably helped more people than she realises. She is honest and loyal and has a huge passion for helping people. She is a fantastic person with a warm heart and has the background and life skills to really help and support her clients.

Emma AvhedeManaging Director Hälsa Wellbeing Ltd

Helen was part of the Global Equities HR team during a challenging time for the business. She was always very professional and focused on the identification of optimal solutions for both the business and individuals. Helen is personable and easy to work with. Even during the most difficult of times she manages to retain her sense of humor and lightness of touch. I would recommend Helen highly.

Liz AshfordHR Director at TSB Bank

Helen is an excellent and insightful life and career coach. She took just a few minutes to get to the reality of issues I was holding onto from a previous post. This allowed me to reflect and deal with these more quickly than I would have, alone.
Building on my strengths, she has helped me to focus on getting ready for the market again – lifting and maintaining my confidence. She is friendly, creates a ‘safe’ and confidential space in which to work and her extensive knowledge from an enviable career history allows her to be insightful and pose questions in a way which provoke deep reflection. She has a solid integrity and a natural sense of what is right which enables thought-provoking coaching – not ‘advice’; coaching with just a few well chosen and targeted questions to have you solving, for yourself, what needs to be considered.
I have really enjoyed working with Helen and would recommend her without hesitation. It wasn’t just business either; Helen is able to engage on a personal level and have a good laugh. I will stay in touch with Helen for sure. A charming confidante and consumate professional! Much respect and many thanks, Helen!
