“Karen… you took me from a place of ongoing tension and anxiety whenever I made contact with my ex, to one of being relaxed and at ease to make arrangements for my children. The way you helped me break through this blockage in my life was fantastic.”

Dennis, Personal Trainer, Christchurch

Karen Ross Transformational Coaching

Welcome to Fresh Ways Forward where you will see fascinating new ways to achieve your goals and create the kind of life you want.

Using Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), an extraordinary model for personal change, coaching provides a unique opportunity to learn practical strategies and skills that empower you to take control.

Find new ways of thinking, fresh perspectives and clarity that can take you forward with renewed energy. This is transformational coaching.

In the same way athletes have a coach that helps them prepare and train their body to reach their goals, I help people achieve their goals by helping them train and utilise their mind. Using a range of techniques including NLP, Ericksonian Hypnotherapy and the Satir Model, coaching at Fresh Ways Forward focuses on you, the client, and offers rapid and lasting change. Discover what NLP is all about and how it can help you.

Find out about coaching sessions and how they have helped my clients make life changing improvements. Coaching with NLP has helped many successful people grow and live a rewarding life. It can help you too.
