Candida Stevens

BA (Hons), MSc (Business Psychology), PGCE, ACC Certified Transformational Coach, In training Psychotherapist

I bring an integrative approach to my work as a coach blending elements of mental and physical wellbeing. I combine a coaching qualification with 25+ years of working in tech, education and the arts with a foundation in psychotherapy and counselling, a teaching qualification and 12 years of coaching creatives. Integrative coaching and therapy involves a blend of mind and body, they are mutually supportive. Combining a therapeutic approach with lived experience, I blend elements of psychotherapy, transformative learning, psychology and wellbeing.

Working in the private, voluntary and public sectors I help others to navigate blocks and barriers but have a particular interest in helping people manage overwhelm, avoid burnout and develop their confidence and resilience, enabling them to meet their full potential.

Having experienced chemotherapy induced cognitive impairment (CICI) I know how disabling and frightening it is to become mentally disregulated. Having worked with a health coach to recovery I know that there is nothing more important.

TESTIMONIALS

  • ''My experience with Candida was amazing! We discussed my hesitations and self limiting beliefs around putting myself out there and doing what I love the most. We delved into positive reframing which empowered me. Her series of questions was hitting all the nails on the head and motivated me so much to the point where I published my first Youtube video only a few days after our very first session. So grateful and blessed to have come across her profile! She gets a great understanding of the issue very early on and knows exactly how to guide the conversation. Truly amazing! Thank you so very much, Candida''

  • "Candida was extremely insightful as a life coach. Beyond bringing a very calming and uplifting vibe, she helped me with practice skills. I have tried therapy. I believe both life coaching and therapy have been very helpful for me. However, since seeing Candida I am a full life coaching convert. Having practice steps has been invaluable."

  • "Candida creates a warm, relaxing and non judgmental environment in her coaching that allows you to feel comfortable in doing some deep thinking. She listens intently and asks very thought provoking questions which help you to delve into the core root of topics that you bring to the session. If you want to make positive changes in your life , I would highly recommend Candida as a coach"

  • Candida possesses that rare skill of being able to offer completely focused, supportive, silent attention to her coachees. In this stillness both clarity and growth can be achieved. It is an absolute pleasure to be in her presence’
