Welcome to Tansy Muller Coaching
Coaching for Parents whose Children have special needs and/or disabilities
I know what it is to feel exhausted, stressed and overwhelmed as a carer myself. Even when your child becomes an adult – you are still their main carer!
Are you struggling to remember who you used to be – or the dreams you once had for your life before you became a carer?
I will work alongside you to help you transform the way you care so that your energy levels don’t become too depleted, you are able to get your own needs met and you retain your own identity alongside your caring role.
Why Choose Coaching?
Coaching is a process whereby you work in partnership with your coach to focus on challenges and/or anxieties that you have identified in your life and which are causing difficulties in moving forward with your intentions and life purpose. Coaching enables you to come up with your own options and possibilities through careful questioning. It is different to counselling in that it is future-focused – working towards something you want.
It takes place over a mutually agreed number of sessions, each one enabling you to move closer to your goals and helping you to build resilience and self-esteem.
Who is caring for the carers?
This is a period of great uncertainty. Carers, who often feel isolated when everything is open, are even more alone at this time. No respite as schools are closed, Carers Support Centres and Support groups are closed. What happens if they get ill, who will look after the person they care for? The overwhelm and anxiety must be awful. If you know of a carer – be it a parent carer or someone caring for a partner or parent, try to make contact (safely) with them. Find out if they need any prescriptions collected, any shopping done – they may be on their own with the person they care for and not be able to leave the house. Let’s consider this vulnerable group of humans who do such a fantastic job every single day.
Hello, I’m Tansy
Imagine a world in which…
Parent carers – whatever their background, feel acknowledged, supported and valued in society. A world where they are able to be healthy in mind, body and spirit because, as well as looking after others, they are able to have their own needs met and are able to live a purpose-led life free of exhaustion & burnout.
I was brought to my knees as a carer and had to learn to live by my values and prioritise my own needs. Tansy Muller Coaching was borne from my mission to support other carers from hitting rock bottom as I did.
