Deep Listening

Deep Listening is a transformational approach that enables us to have more profound encounters and truly understand each other. In evolving this approach, I have drawn heavily on the work of the late psychologist Carl Rogers, among other psychologists and on academic research and practice by psychologists, lawyers, therapists, Indigenous people and fellow coaches and mediators.

I deliver bespoke, one-to-one coaching and workshops to universities, businesses, non-profits, and individuals. Through my enthusiastic, hands-on interactive approach, I empower people to listen, engage and lead more effectively.

What makes my work distinctive is that my approach draws on rigorous academic evidence and real life experiences to empower people to create news ways of engaging with others, particularly across divides. In addition to my solo work, I also collaborate with The Forward Institute and the British Council.
