About Me

Welcome! I'm Gemma, glad you are here.

​

I spent over 20 years working in education, with a specific focus on neurodiversity. I’ve worked at all levels – from class teacher to Assistant Headteacher and Inclusion Specialist. Throughout my career, I’ve always been passionate about helping people feel seen, heard and understood, so they can build confidence in themselves.

​

After having my third child, I returned to work and found myself juggling a demanding career whilst trying to support my family, plus a dog, and look after myself. Eventually, I reached a point of burnout, which became my turning point. It gave me the opportunity to pause, re-evaluate and reconnect with what really mattered to me.

​

Coaching gave me the space to consider what energised me – my background in Psychology, my experience of supporting neurodivergent children and families, and my desire to help people understand themselves and what works for them. 

 

This insight enabled me to rebuild my career in a way that complemented my lifestyle, while making use of the skills and experience I had developed throughout my career.

​

I’m now a qualified Transformative Coach, supporting individuals, schools and businesses. My certification with the Animas Centre for Coaching is accredited by the ICF, EMCC and AC.

​

My work today encompasses:

  • Adult Neurodiversity Life Coaching

  • School-based coaching and supervision

  • Associate coaching for businesses

  • Support for families and young people

​

Coaching taught me to pause, reflect on what mattered and reconnect with my drive and purpose.

 

What is your inner voice saying to you?

​

I’d love to hear from you.

Gemma, life coach and founder of Bright Clarity Coaching
