About Corum Coaching

Experience and Specialisms

I have spent my entire career in Scotland’s third sector, with almost 20 years’ experience in  leadership, executive and governance roles in social care and education charities and in social enterprise. I have always loved working with people and derive a huge sense of satisfaction from supporting them to achieve their potential.

Coaching and mentoring are not therapeutic interventions, however I warmly welcome clients regardless of their background and circumstances who are committed to engage with coaching to make positive changes in their lives.

I started my career as a support worker in a mental health service and was formerly the Director of Services and Development in a national mental health charity. I am a qualified Scotland’s Mental Health First Aid Instructor and have significant experience in supporting people who have experienced trauma and loss and people with care experience. I have undertaken Enhanced Trauma Training and approach my coaching through a trauma-informed lens.

I have specialist expertise in neurodivergence, hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Autism from the University of Strathclyde and was formerly the director of the National Autistic Society Scotland. In 2024 became a qualified neurodiversity coach through Animas Coaching. I have a very strong sense of social justice and much of my career has involved challenging inequality, underpinned by unwavering social values and a compassionate, collaborative leadership approach.
