Testimonials
What clients say
With decades of experience as a senior leader in a global management consultancy, Monica understands corporate politics, high-pressure environments, and the strategic challenges leaders face. But it’s her background as a psychotherapist and executive coach that gives her an unparalleled ability to help clients develop the self-awareness and emotional intelligence necessary to lead effectively. Here are some of her clients' testimonials.
SM: Senior Partner, Big Four Professional Services Firm, London
"Monica was an invaluable coach at a point when I transitioned into a more senior role at work, taking on additional accountability and a significantly large scope of responsibility.
Specifically, Monica has helped me to manage the transition with both patience and very practical, actionable steps. Be that around the building of my own confidence and the finding of my voice with a much more senior group of stakeholders, or with succession plans, talent strategies and the re-structure of my team, effective delegation or the holding of others to account for performance".
DJ: Managing Director in a Global Technology Consultancy Firm, London
"After spending over 25 years with the same organisation, I found it challenging to carve out the time and space to explore new career possibilities. Monica changed that for me.
She helped me gain clarity on the decisions I needed to make about my career. More importantly, she has restored a sense of control that I thought I had lost, which has had a profound impact on me.
With Monica, you gain far more from the coaching relationship than you might initially expect".
JA: Director, Big Four Professional Services Firm, London
“I came to Monica feeling stuck, frustrated and demotivated. I had been scared to even start unpicking how I was feeling in case everything fell apart.
Monica was able to see through to the crux of the issue and help me look at it from all different angles until it no longer felt like a problem at all.
Monica’s background meant that she truly understood the context and mindset of the world I come from, and her warmth and openness created a safe space to completely unload and work through things I didn’t even know I was carrying”.
AM: VP HR & Talent at a leading European Venture Capital Firm
"Monica's deep expertise in advising organisations in talent strategy was invaluable for the young founders she was coaching, propelling their start-ups to new heights.
Drawing from her extensive experience with major financial services clients, Monica skilfully navigated the unique challenges of start-up environments to empower these founders to develop talent strategies that perfectly fit their businesses. This ignited the founders with the confidence and drive they needed to succeed".
NK: Entrepreneur and Executive Coach
"As an executive coach, I know how powerful coaching can be for my own personal development and growth and Monica is an excellent coach that helps me do that. She encourages me to think deeply about my goals, challenges me and works with me to set a path to get there and achieve excellent outcomes.
Monica creates a safe space, is patient, respectful and encouraging.
Monica has a wealth of experience which shows from the very first session. I would very much recommend Monica to anyone thinking of getting a coach".
CP: Senior Manager, Global Management Consultancy Firm, London
“I had career led coaching sessions with Monica and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made for myself.
I was in a place where I felt quite demotivated at work, but Monica was able to help me recognise there were areas of interest to me. She empowered me to speak up for myself.
The sessions never needed any prep work and was very much, turn up and discuss any challenges I had been facing, which always made the sessions feel very natural and a safe place to talk".
