Fiona Stimson

Certified Coach & Master NLP Practitioner- Kora Coaching & Therapy

I work as a Health Empowerment Coach, using transformational techniques to enable lasting change in peoples lives by utilising the mind/body connection. My work supports clients in understanding how their thoughts, habits and behaviours are affecting their lives (in sickness and in health) & together we re-establish new ways of 'being'. I am a specialist in supporting people impacted by cancer, chronic ill health, including long Covid and other health issues.  I believe that we all have the innate ability to aid our healing and that this can be integrated with other forms of treatment and health management to empower us to live with limitless potential.

I work in a transformational way, to effect lasting change in your personal and professional life. My approach is holistic & based on kindness, compassion and empathy and is person centred, energising and intuitive. My clients come to me when they are in conflict with themselves or others, where their emotions and resulting behaviours are undesirable to them or out of control, they may be experiencing high levels of anxiety or prolonged stress. They may not yet have manifested an illness as such, however, they know that they do not want to go on any longer as they are. They know that they are ready to grow, learn and change, they can take full responsibility for themselves in that process and as such, they realise the huge benefits in their personal and professional lives.

I challenge and change the belief systems that are no longer working for you into ones that you want to hold and aspire to. Many clients experiencing chronic and serious illness lose sight of who they are, their sense of purpose and connection is 'lost', they feel they have no control over what is happening and initially may feel lots of negative emotions as they find themselves in uncertain territory.  If left to linger, this can have a negative effect on the lives of those living with the illness and those caring or close to them.

This can be changed, it is possible to overcome those negative thoughts and feelings, my clients choose to heal from within as they reconnect and understand their true nature and they can then live with positive alignment and authenticity. They learn to appreciate themselves,  to challenge their old thinking and take action to change and shift from the negative emotions such as anger, loss, hopelessness, guilt, frustration and sadness to being empowered and taking control of their life, finding a renewed passion and purpose, with my support.

 I work at The Royal Marsden Cancer Centre as a Professional Coach and Senior Leader, The Royal Surrey Hospital, as a Volunteer Coach, working with Cancer patients and their families, Working with Cancer- WWC (a social enterprise supporting people impacted by cancer in returning to work) and have my own private coaching practice at Kora Coaching & Therapy in Surrey. I offer in person and Zoom sessions.

I have developed a progressive, calm and mindful way of practice and work with nature to support my clients overall health and wellbeing. I run a 'Walk With Me Series' in my local community to help people to get out into nature, experience mindful walking and nature connection to help them discover their true self & their connection with themselves and others.

I have a strong belief in personal development & have trained as a Personal Performance Coach, Master of NLP,  Integrative Clinical Hypnotherapist, as well as being trained in Time-Based Techniques, Mindfulness for Health, Core Transformation, Natural Mindfulness with Nature and also use Breathwork and EFT.  I have used my training in my own health and life events, it has helped me to find strength, clarity and direction in my own life and made me a much stronger and authentic person as a result.
I am now able to share that wealth of learning & experience to help others.

My Coach - Fiona Stimson

Testimonial:

“I’ve had quite an eventful life good and bad and I am no stranger to a coaching session. I’ve tried several coaches over the years whether it be for work to develop my Senior Human Resources role or for personal support.


I’ve always taken some positives away from a coaching session in the past but none that stuck with me for long before my thoughts & behaviours resumed back to normal. So I suppose I’m saying I’ve got a short term benefit from my previous coaches,

Well that was until I met Fiona!!!!


Earlier this year just as the first lock down kicked in I was also struck with some devastating news. I was diagnosed with stage 4 throat cancer! Well my world fell apart and to put the cherry on the cake I had a gorgeous 6 month old baby I had to look after during months of brutal treatment.
At the time I felt I had no choice, I had to find a way to help me cope and to be strong and positive.


My husband and I researched the internet for someone to help and we came across Fiona’s profile, so I gave her a call and we booked 6 sessions. Well, well, well it was the single most smartest move I made during this chapter in my life. I started a session with Fiona not knowing how the hell she was going to get my mind to a rationally motivated place, but my god she did and did it every time. I came away from each call filled with energy and loaded with great techniques to manage my emotions and thoughts which In turn got me through what happened to be a horrific 9 months!!


The difference between Fiona and other coaches that have worked with me in the past is that she has a natural intuitive skill where she can easily tap into where your problems lie, she listens and picks out the precise language to identify the route of what is going on in your head. The techniques that Fiona taught me were easy to understand and practice on my own which ultimately got me through the tough dark days.


I have decided to book another 6 sessions even though things are brighter in my life now and I have been blessed that my treatment worked to cure my tumours.


I want to work with Fiona in the next chapter in my life. She is worth every penny and more, she leads me to a path that I couldn’t find on my own and for me that’s happiness and knowing who I am and what I want.


Thank you Fiona

A review by Terry H Elston

Fiona is an exceptional NLP Practitioner and person. Her commitment to getting the job done is surpassed by her dedication to getting the job done correctly and purposefully.

In terms of human skills, her cup runneth over. Coupled with her NLP abilities makes her an amazing toolbox of transformation.

Comes highly recommended.

A review by Jennifer Burke

I was initially a bit sceptical about coaching & NLP, I wondered what real change it would enable me to bring about and if it would last. Now, I have just experienced a Breakthrough Session with Fiona & I was so glad I contacted her. The session was just what I needed, pragmatic, progressive and totally built around me, not dictated by anything else. I felt exceptionally comfortable talking to Fiona in depth about any issues I needed dealing with. Fiona’s calmness and nonjudgemental approach meant I was able to feel and see results immediately and I could be completely honest with her (and myself).
The outcome was a feeling of total empowerment, something I haven’t felt for a long while. I now realise I have options and it has opened up a new positive, progressive energy, enabling new thought processes, focus and actions. The Breakthrough Session has really opened my eyes to what I can achieve and I now believe I can achieve what I want, now and in the future.

I have had the pleasure of working with Fiona on clearing out some of the things that held me back from the past. She is very caring person and a practitioner with a great sense of humor. We had an instant rapport and I felt at ease talking with her about anything. She is a skilled NLP Coach and a Hypnotherapist and I found her approach practical and effective, which is exactly what I needed.
