As a coach
Ceri is an Executive Coach and media communications professional with over two decades of experience leading teams in television production. She also delivers creative confidence, systems and resilience training to media organisations.
Ceri is a qualified NLP Master Practitioner and Trainer, and volunteers as a mediator for Mediation+. Her practice is grounded in neuroscience, and storytelling is at the heart of her approach — she believes the narratives we carry about ourselves, our roles, and our relationships shape everything.
It was her experience in television that brought Ceri to coaching. She saw firsthand the corrosive effects of workplace stress — and how powerfully coaching can shift things from exhausting to enlivening. She knows what a well-nourished team looks like and is driven to help people and organisations create the conditions for that to happen.
Ceri works with individuals, leaders, and media organisations — always with clarity, warmth, and a commitment to real, lasting change.
