Coaching For Doctors
Life is busy and you’re always looking after others. When do you get time to think about you?
On this page you can find out more about what coaching can help with, and how you can book some coaching for you.
Coaching can give you the time and space to think about and explore a variety of topics, including:
- your future career choices
- work relationships
- managing boundaries
- work life balance
- future direction in or outside medicine
- imposter syndrome and limiting beliefs
- managing overwhelm
- wellbeing
What Is Coaching?
Coaching might be thought of as a conversation with a purpose. It will provide you with the luxury of a protected time and space to discuss your situation with someone who will listen without judgement and help you to generate new thinking. Coaching is generally non-directive, so the coach, rather than telling you what to do, will facilitate your empowerment to find your own answers and to decide on the steps you wish to take to follow your own unique path forwards in a variety of areas of your life and career.
Coaching is not therapy or counselling and it is also not mentoring. If, at any point in the coaching relationship the coach feels that either of those forms of support would be more appropriate for you they will talk to you about the best way forward.
What Is Your Role In The Coaching Relationship?
In order to make the most of the coaching it would be good for you to be ready, willing and able to be present in the coaching relationship.
Being ready means having something that you would like to work on in the coaching sessions; having time to invest in yourself and being able to make and keep appointments.
Being willing means being prepared to work towards your desired outcome; willing to work on changing any self-limiting behaviours that are holding you back; and being willing to try out new things.
Being able means that you are well and in the right frame of mind to enter the coaching sessions with a view to achieving the outcomes you wish to see.
If you’re ready, willing, and able to engage with coaching, keep reading to find out more about how we can help you.

Tom Dillon, M.A., B.Sc. (Hons)
I have been fortunate to work with hundreds of marvellous individuals in the past 14 years and have seen each of them make great strides on their own, unique life journeys. It has been a truly amazing experience for which I have a tremendous sense of gratitude.
Not only that, I can honestly say that it has been a pleasure and a privilege to spend time with each and every one of my clients, as I’ve shared a part of their journeys.
Over the last 14 years I have continued to develop my own skills as a coach and as a coaching trainer. I am a lifelong learner and a continuous improver, always looking for the difference that is going to make the difference in my coaching and training.
For the last 3 years my coaching and coaching training has been focused on supporting doctors and allowing them to flourish as their own, authentic selves.
The role of a doctor is always going to be demanding and the environments in which they work are always going to be complex and challenging.
Through coaching I allow doctors to develop their own understanding of their values, their sense of meaningful purpose and a recognition of the inner strengths and personality characteristics that are part of who they are.
I then work with my clients to envision the personal and professional life that they want for themselves. We then set about designing that new desired way of living and start exploring the most effective way to bring it into being.
In this way I walk alongside my clients as they continue on their journey in a way that resources them and allows them to thrive.
I look forward to walking alongside you as you travel on this part of your own journey.

Helen Leathers, B.Sc. (Hons)
Hi, I’m Helen and I work with women around overwhelm, confidence, wellbeing, fulfilment and purpose. This means focusing on boundaries, personal empowerment, new habits and inner resources, and typically we have to start with personal energy levels before we do anything else, because it’s hard to change anything if you’re exhausted.
So, if you’re feeling frustrated, as though something needs to change, a bit lost, disconnected, or as though you’re ready for something new, but you’re not sure what it is… do get in touch.
I’ve worked with women for a number of years now, more recently those working within the medical professions all who are seeking a new way to be, one that’s less exhausting and more fulfilling.
I trained as a One of many™ certified women’s coach, completed my degree in psychology in 2020, and am member of and accredited coach with the Association for Coaching. I am also an assessor for the Association for Coaching accreditation process.
I have an integrative approach to coaching, with an emphasis on our body/mind connection, and positive psychology.

We are training a number of doctors, who are studying with us for a Transformational Coaching Diploma qualification, which is accredited by the Association for Coaching. Once they have completed their training, the coaches are required to gain experience through engaging in coaching conversations with a small number of individuals.
