Looking for a talking partner?

I am a qualified and experienced coach with a Diploma in Advanced Executive Coaching, accredited by the Academy of Executive Coaching (AEC). I have practised as a professional coach in the Leeds area since 2003. I am a member of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC).

This website will tell you what I do. Each page represents a different area of my work:

I like to work face-to-face with my clients, with phone and email contact in between sessions. If you think I can help you, contact Melanie by email talk@melanieallen.co.uk or phone 01943 884734. We can arrange a free one hour session, and take it from there. If you decide that coaching is not for you, there's no obligation to continue. I'll be honest with you about whether I can help. If I can't, I may suggest that you see another, more appropriate, kind of practitioner.

  • About the free session

    Here are my answers to some common queries:

  • Why start with a free session?

    So that you can decide whether coaching and my style of coaching is right for you.

  • Will it tie me in to a programme of sessions?

    No. My clients often book sessions one by one. The number and frequency varies from person to person and depends on the purpose of the coaching.

  • Do I have to decide to continue then and there?

    No. You can go away and think about it if you prefer. If you do decide to book another session, we can get the process underway with something to do or think about before the next session.

  • Does it have to last for an hour?

    No, although in my experience, an hour gives you time to get a feel for future sessions. If 20 or 30 minutes is enough for you, that's fine.

  • What happens in the free session?

    The session is about getting to know each other. Most of the hour is about you, after I have explained how I work and you have asked me questions. We explore your situation together, then we can decide whether to continue.
