Coaching with Shakti

Client stories

In their own words.

Coaching is hard to describe from the outside. Below, the doctors, students, and managers I have worked with describe it in their own words.

I really enjoyed my coaching sessions with Shakti. She creates a warm, relaxed environment and is so easy to talk to. The sessions guided me through self-discovery, helping me focus on my personal and professional priorities, and the barriers to success.

We touched on areas like shame and self-doubt, which helped me become more comfortable with past decisions and see myself in a more positive light. Both face-to-face and online sessions worked well, and I finished feeling like I had a clearer understanding of myself and my future. Thank you, Shakti!

Before this meeting, I wanted to go back to sleep, but afterward, I felt ready for the day! I’m not sure what exactly did it, but I’m grateful.

These sessions have helped me understand emotions from an outside perspective and not be consumed by them. I also love the neuroscience insights, especially the one about how introverts and extroverts process things differently — it was so validating!

Talking through things with someone who’s there to help is invaluable in a way self-reflection can’t match. Thank you for listening to my ramblings!

My sessions with Dr. Patel were helpful and insightful. She has a warm manner and is an excellent listener. Even though I’m not great at opening up, I found it surprisingly natural with her.

She helped me reflect on my life and future in ways I hadn’t considered before, sharing useful tips that made me realise what’s truly important to me.

I highly recommend Dr. Patel as a life coach for anyone facing a crossroads or uncertain times.

I really enjoyed working with Shakti. She is a fantastic coach and has helped me work through regaining control of my work-life balance.

She completely put me at ease, it felt like talking to a friend, but with her guidance she helped me explore what is really important to me and make small changes in my life for the better.

I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Coaching with Shakti has been a transformational process for me. She provides a warm, compassionate space in which I found myself speaking freely about things I had kept hidden for years.

Her curious questions helped me to unravel my thinking in a safe environment and challenge myself to see things from a fresh perspective. There was laughter as well as serious moments and I left the session having absorbed some of the calm and wisdom Shakti projects.

Whilst coaching is not therapy, working with Shakti has had a profoundly therapeutic effect which I didn’t anticipate but for which I’m truly grateful. I recommend her unreservedly to anyone seeking a coach.
