About Me:
From Intelligence Analyst to Mental Health Coach
I founded NewDay Coaching because I wanted to provide the sort of support I would have loved when I returned to work after mental illness. I am accredited with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council at Foundation level and a trained Mental Health First Aider and bring traditional life coaching techniques together with an understanding of the particular stresses about returning to work after mental illness.
My speciality: Analytical Professionals
Intelligence analysts • Risk analysts • Content moderators • Journalists • OSINT researchers • Fraud investigators • Due diligence analysts • Anyone regularly processing distressing information
I also work with: Professionals in all fields
If you are returning to work after mental ill health, you are welcome here. My specialised experience helps everyone even if your field is different from mine.
Specialized 1-on-1 coaching for intelligence analysts, risk analysts, content moderators, researchers, fraud investigators, and other professionals who regularly process distressing information.
If you're navigating return to work after burnout, depression, anxiety, or vicarious trauma and need support from someone who understands your specific professional environment, this coaching is designed for you.
What makes this different? I've been where you are. I know what it's like to analyze horrific content, maintain objectivity under pressure, worry about security clearances, and feel like you "should be able to handle it." I understand the culture, the confidentiality constraints, and the unique demands of your work.
Together we'll develop strategies for your successful return that respect both your professional standards and your recovery needs.
Ready to return to work after mental ill health, but the thought of it is beginning to stress you out?
Whether you work in finance, legal, healthcare, education, or any other demanding field, my practice uses traditional coaching techniques to develop a programme specially focused on getting you back to work, addressing causes of your stress, and helping you feel confident and supported.
We'll continue our coaching sessions after your return to make sure you have support for the day-to-day realities of being back at work.
Vicarious Trauma Awareness & Crisis Resilience for Analytical Teams
Does your organization employ teams who regularly process distressing information? Intelligence analysts, risk analysts, content moderators, fraud investigators, researchers, OSINT teams, or crisis response analysts?
Drawing on 20+ years leading and supporting analytical teams (including founding IHS Markit's global Wellbeing Network and delivering crisis response training to 200+ staff), I help organizations build effective wellbeing programs that work in analytical environments. It is not generic corporate wellness, but support systems that understand operational demands.

Vicarious trauma awareness programs
Crisis resilience training for analytical teams
Return-to-work protocols for analysts
Manager training: supporting analysts experiencing mental health challenges
Wellbeing strategy for teams processing distressing content
Also Available: General corporate mental health awareness training and support for organizations in any sector.
Executive Coaching: Particularly effective for leaders managing analytical, investigative, or high-pressure knowledge work teams.

About Mental Heath
At the core of NewDay Coaching is a recognition that returning to work after an absence is hard. If that absence has been because of mental health issues then just thinking about returning to the workplace can reignite feelings of stress and anxiety.
