“Jade has been an amazing coach in the six sessions we worked together. She brought a lot of resources that helped me put in words my thoughts and feelings. She was also very thorough with all the notes she took and shared with me after sessions. This helped me a lot to see things more clearly. I also loved that she shared a bit about her personal life - it made me more comfortable to share mine. I think we could both see a great progress in my objectives, and what’s even more exciting, a lot more progress to make in the future.”

“Working with Jade gave me a safe space to be honest with myself about a lot of aspects of my life. Although hard sometimes, Jade was always there to give me the helping hand I needed to not give up on my dreams. Working with her gave me so much clarity about my life and goals, a gift she has that will be invaluable to anyone who chooses to work with her.”

Client

“Jade spent six incredible sessions with my son, working through his difficulties and providing him with tools to navigate his anxiety around exams. She really encouraged him to talk about his feelings, and build his confidence. I highly recommend Jade to work with any teen who is struggling with these sorts of issues. I think the tools she provided will serve him well into his future.”

Parent

“Watching my 14-year-old son grow in confidence and appear more grounded over the course of his six sessions has been incredibly special. I’ve seen such a positive shift in how he carries himself and approaches challenges. In an age where guidance from parents is not always welcomed, I am deeply grateful that he has an insightful, trusted adult to help guide and support him. Thank you for the impact you’ve made on his journey.”

Parent

“I can highly recommend Jade for teenage and young adult coaching. She is friendly and confident and instills trust in her approach. She really helped my daughter who is shy, an introvert and was struggling in her first year of high school. She offers practical tools to address teen issues such as confidence, relationships, life balance, boundaries and abilities to handle tricky situations and challenges.”

Parent

“Thanks for the exceptional work done with your programme. We are very happy with the interventions and as well as tools you provided and our daughter is doing very well and benefitted significantly. She opted to explore using the tools you made available for the first half of this year and it is very useful. Increased confidence and focus is at least two areas we notice as areas of improvementsI will gladly use your services again where such need arises.”

Parent

“We were very lucky to come across Jade's advert in our school's newsletter. We weren't looking for a coach, but we have an anxious, high achieving child and thought it wouldn't hurt to give coaching a try. It was really amazing for our teenager to be able to talk to someone outside of our family, and to spend an hour purely on their own mental and emotional wellbeing. Jade is supportive, caring, practical and gave our teen some excellent tools to cope with the anxiety when it comes. We honestly cannot recommend Jade enough!”

Parent

“I engaged with Jade at the beginning of this year in terms of life coaching sessions for bursary boys on the Sikunye program at RBHS. The sessions have not only proved invaluable for the boys, but also in terms of the high level insights and input Jade offered me, which have in turn translated into valuable systemic improvements to the Sikunye programme in general.

Jade has an absolute talent for engaging and truly connecting with teenage boys, resulting in them actually requesting extra sessions with her of their own accord - which is no mean feat when dealing with 17 year-old-boys! Jade cares deeply and will always go the extra mile in terms of helping the boys achieve their personal goals by providing guidance, support and accountability. I cannot recommend Jade highly enough for anyone looking for a teen coach.”
