About Me
Hi, I'm Chloe, Confidence Coach, Owner of Creative Courage, Musician, Former Teacher & School Leader. For over 25 years, I've worked closely with children and teenagers getting to know them as individuals, not just faces in a classroom.

My Story
For years, I watched schools work incredibly hard, but stretched too thin to give every child the individual attention they needed. As a teacher, I saw children struggling with self-belief and emotional regulation, again and again. I wanted to do more about it so I left the job I loved and set up Creative Courage Coaching.
Now, I watch children grow into more confident, resilient versions of themselves - sometimes in ways that surprise their own parents.
My Philosophy
I believe every young person has a spark of courage inside them. Sometimes it's hidden under anxiety, self-doubt, or the pressures of school and friendships but it's always there.
I don't believe in "fixing" children. I believe in empowering them giving them space to grow, tools to thrive, and the courage to be themselves.
My Approach
My coaching combines mindset techniques with creative activities to help children manage big emotions like anxiety and anger, and build real resilience and confidence.
They get to express themselves safely through art, crafts and play developing tools they can use every day, long after our sessions together end.
More children benefit from this kind of support than you might think. You don't need to be in crisis to ask for help.
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone, and neither is your child.

Chloe built an instant rapport with my daughter, who struggles to trust new people. My daughter has loved her sessions with Chloe, but most importantly Chloe gave her some important tools to help her manage her anxiety. I would highly recommend Chloe, she's the fairy godmother for confidence!!
