Public Speaking Vocal Coaching
Imagine feeling confident, relaxed and self assured, as you stand up in front of an audience, knowing you're going to give a great speech. As you start speaking, you feel your presentation flow and you enjoy the warm connection you feel with the people listening to your every word. Everyone can learn the tools to enjoy speaking confidently and effectively in public.
I trained and worked as a professional actress for over 15 years and still work as a host and presenter both live and online. I am experienced in knowing how to speak so that people will listen. I know what its like to feel the nerves, the stage-fright, the moment where you cannot remember your lines and you want the ground to swallow you up. I also know the exhilaration of knowing you are connecting with and moving your audience, the power of giving a brilliant speech that you can feel making an impression and leaving a message.
Transforming fear into confidence
If you have fear around public speaking, you are not alone. 74% of the population claim to have public speaking anxiety! If you have fears around public speaking, I am here to transform it into confidence. You may even find you start to enjoy it!
We will build your confidence, using a powerful combination of CBT and visualisation to identify and overcome any self-limiting beliefs. I will teach you the tools of applied relaxation and assertiveness.
We will look at body language and how to look and feel comfortable in front of any audience. I will give you the vocal skills to tell your story effectively and make an authentic connection through your speech.
You'll get expert feedback and direction so that you can refine your presentation and communicate authentically and powerfully.

You may be preparing for an important speech at work, a big presentation, or wanting to feel more confident standing up in weekly meetings. You may be preparing for a keynote speech or you may be preparing to take the stage as a best man/woman. Perhaps you are a teacher, wanting to feel more effective in standing.
Whatever your situation, we will have a 20 minute free telephone consultation to explore how I can address your specific needs. I work bespoke to your level of confidence, ability and needs. If you’re a complete novice, we’ll start at the beginning. If you’re experienced with some bad habits, we’ll work them out. And if you want help crafting a mesmerising presentation, then that’ll be our focus.
We can concentrate on confidence, preparation and delivery or I can also support you in reviewing the structure and content of your speech. I can also deliver public speaking training to groups.
