Why Work with Me?
If you’re facing challenges in your personal or professional life, such as difficulties with relationships, communication, or influencing skills, feeling unsupported, or dealing with workplace stress, burnout, or bullying, my 25 years of corporate experience may be beneficial to you.
I specialise in leadership development and can also provide guidance for those navigating redundancy, career transitions, and job search coaching.
Having lived in Hong Kong for 15 years and worked across the Asia-Pacific region with individuals from diverse backgrounds, I understand the unique challenges of cross-cultural communication. If you’re adjusting to life as an expatriate or accompanying spouse, or struggling with issues of belonging and identity, I can support you through these transitions.
I also have personal expertise in grief, bereavement, health-related anxiety, low self-esteem, and loneliness. In these areas, I offer compassionate support to help you through difficult times.

Testimonials
Sandra is an exceptional coach and overall human being. I met Sandra after moving to London from Washington DC for my husband’s job and she was warm, kind, and knowledgeable about navigating the job market in the UK. We met every fortnight and at each meeting Sandra was prepared with new connections for me to pursue from her own network and/or job search ideas. She also coached me through resume updating and interview prep, which was incredibly beneficial. Ultimately, I did find a great position in London with her coaching and support.

Managing Director Global Strategic Sales and Operations Planning – Cobb
Sandra is kind, patient, and knowledgeable. Upon moving to London as an American, she helped me gain the wherewithal to get started as a freelance development/policy consultant for international organizations. She helped me understand the importance and etiquette of networking, the dynamics within the international consulting industry, and the pieces necessary to establish and thrive a new limited company. As a result, I landed 2 substantial contracts to start my career — one client was the United Nations. Furthermore, Sandra’s psychotherapy background shines through in her compassion and passion to help others.
