Stuart - Men’s Wellbeing Coach

As a man in his 60s who founded Fellas, I bring the lived experience of being a dad, a husband and an entrepreneur. My professional background in theatre allows me to understand the stresses and anxiety that can give rise to unhealthy habits, burnout and a loss of motivation and morale.

How I work:

The fundamentals of my work are person-centred, building on my clients’ strengths, defining their goals, and building self-confidence. By working together, we address the barriers to success and develop the confidence to move forward.

We do this by firstly clarifying your goal and understanding what exactly is getting in the way. We create a practical and achievable plan that you can work on between sessions, which will give you the tools to thrive building the confidence to move forward positively.

Therapy tends to focus on healing past emotional pain and treating mental health conditions. Using elements of cognitive behavioural therapy and neurolinguistics, my approach to coaching focuses on achieving specific goals, such as career advancement or making lifestyle changes. Providing motivation, guidance and accountability. This approach has been successful in supporting adults who are neurodiverse.

My experience has led me to work with individuals, groups and teams in corporate environments and the public sector, often facilitating future planning, developing their mission or finding better ways to communicate and work together. Fellas is currently working with Ware Town Council on its men’s wellbeing programme.
