About Sheryl

A coach rooted in creativity, wellbeing, and authentic expression

I’m a certified person-centred, integrative coach and HCPC-registered occupational therapist with over twenty years’ experience in mental health, wellbeing, and creative development—also a trained actor, playwright, and performance poet.

Having worked within the creative arts myself, I understand the uncertainty, rejection, self-doubt, and vulnerability that can accompany a creative life. This lived experience, combined with my professional background, shapes an approach that’s both evidence-based and grounded in creative practice.

I support actors, writers, directors, artists, and other creative professionals in building sustainable creative practice, embodied presence, and authentic self-expression—helping you reconnect with your strengths, trust your instincts, and create work and a life that feels true to who you are.

"

It is often said that life is like a river — always moving, always changing. For creative arts professionals, this idea becomes especially powerful: creativity itself is a living process — sometimes expansive, sometimes blocked, sometimes rushing, sometimes still.

Life as a Creative Flow

What I Offer

Five integrative
coaching modalities

Transpersonal Coaching

Supporting expansion, perspective, and creative possibility. It helps you access states of open awareness, deepen intuition, and reconnect with a sense of meaning beyond immediate challenges — supporting vision, inspiration, and creative direction.

Acceptance & Commitment Coaching (ACT)

Developing psychological flexibility through mindfulness, acceptance, values clarification, and committed action aligned with what matters most in your creative life. Working skillfully with self-doubt, anxiety, and inner resistance.

Occupational Therapy Informed Coaching

Supporting balance, structure, flow, and sustainable creative routines while reducing functional and creative blocks. Helping you develop resilience in demanding or unpredictable careers.

Meisner Flow Coaching Model
Supporting embodied presence, responsiveness, and authentic creative expression — moving from self-conscious performance into grounded creative flow. Inspired by the Meisner technique and present-moment awareness.
Nature-Based Coaching

Using connection with the natural world to support regulation, grounding, clarity, and creative restoration. Step out of internal pressure and reconnect with embodied awareness through the restorative qualities of nature.

Your creative life awaits

What if this was the moment you chose to relate to your creative life differently?

Perhaps you’re an actor, director, writer, producer, artist, or creative practitioner navigating the uncertainty of the industry—seeking better balance, wellbeing, and mental health alongside your work.

Perhaps creative blocks, performance anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, or fear of failure are making it hard to begin, finish, or share your work authentically.

Perhaps the pressures of freelancing, auditions, deadlines, comparison, or rejection have left you overwhelmed or burnt out, longing for more resilience, steadiness, and creative flow.

Perhaps you’re balancing artistic integrity with financial sustainability and external expectations, wanting decisions that feel aligned with your values.

Perhaps you’re at a crossroads—between projects, questioning your direction, or wondering if you can sustain a life in such an unpredictable profession.

Or perhaps you’ve simply lost touch with your creative identity, and you’re longing to reconnect with your instincts, your voice, and a deeper sense of meaning.

Which of these feels familiar? What might you be ready to cultivate, change, let go of, or reconnect with?

Now imagine...

...approaching your creative work with greater steadiness, confidence, and self-compassion.

...trusting your instincts more than your inner critic.

...responding to uncertainty with curiosity rather than fear.

...feeling able to create without perfectionism standing in your way.

...making decisions that feel grounded in your values rather than external expectations.

...showing up more fully in your auditions, rehearsals, writing, collaborations, or creative practice.

...creating from a place that feels authentic, meaningful, and fully your own.
