Eight or twelve sessions · London · Birmingham · Online
The Power and Positivity Programme in London and online
A tailor-made coaching programme designed around your needs, goals and ambitions, never a course you have to fit into. You choose eight or twelve 90-minute sessions, at 1 Harley Street, in Edgbaston or online.
A programme designed for you
The Power and Positivity Programme is built from scratch for each person. I design it around your needs, your goals and your ambitions, so the content of every session comes from what you want to change. There is no set syllabus that you have to bend yourself to match, and no workbook that everyone receives.
It starts with a free 30-minute phone call. You tell me what you want and I explain how the programme runs. Next comes the introductory discovery session: 90 minutes in which you map the goal, the pattern in the way and what a good result would look like for you. I design the programme from that session. If you are new to coaching, how coaching works covers the first call onwards.
Every session lasts 90 minutes, weekly or fortnightly. That is longer than the usual coaching hour, which leaves room to get beneath the problem and to rehearse the new response before you leave the room or the call.
Eight or twelve sessions
You can run the programme as eight sessions or as twelve. Both follow the same phases; the twelve-session version adds a third phase for realisation, consolidation and achievement. Long-standing problems, such as confidence that has been low for years, often suit the longer version.
Choose eight or twelve sessions
Both options are the same programme, designed around you, with the same price in person or online. The difference is how far it runs.
Eight sessions
£1,440 for eight 90-minute sessions.
Covers two phases: Instigation (sessions 1 to 5) and Positive Reinforcement (sessions 6 to 8). It suits one main area of life where you want the change made and then made dependable.
Includes a plan designed around your goals, email and text support between sessions, and a written summary at the end.
Twelve sessions
£1,980 for twelve 90-minute sessions.
Covers all three phases: Instigation, Positive Reinforcement, then Realisation, Consolidation and Achievement (sessions 9 to 12). It suits bigger ambitions, change on several fronts, or a problem you want support with over a few months.
Includes everything in the eight-session option, plus sessions 9 to 12 to consolidate the change and work towards the goal you set at the start.
Payment plans are available by agreement. Not sure which length fits? Ask on the free call; I’ll recommend the shorter option if it is enough.
What both options include
A free call and a discovery session first
Thirty minutes by phone, then a 90-minute discovery session at £165 that you can book on its own with no obligation.
A programme written around you
Your needs, goals and ambitions decide what each session covers, and the plan changes as you do.
Ninety minutes every time
Enough time to look at the pattern properly and practise a new response in the same session.
Support between sessions
Email or text me when something comes up between appointments, and I’ll reply.
Something to practise each week
Each session ends with a specific thing to try at work or at home, and the next one starts with what happened.
Your choice of room or screen
1 Harley Street in London, Quadrant Court in Edgbaston, or online on Zoom, FaceTime or phone.
The three phases of the programme
The phases give the programme its shape. What happens inside each one depends on your goal, and the programme can focus on any area of life coaching.
Sessions 1 to 5: Instigation
I call this phase instigating the power change. You look closely at what you want, what has stopped you so far and the moments where the old pattern takes over.
Then you work on those moments directly, using conversation and practical techniques such as NLP, and start trying a different response between sessions.
Sessions 6 to 8: Positive Reinforcement
This phase makes the change dependable. You use the new response in harder situations, look at what happens when it slips and plan a quick recovery instead of starting over.
On the eight-session programme it ends with a written plan you can keep using on your own.
Sessions 9 to 12: Realisation, Consolidation and Achievement
Only on the twelve-session programme. You turn the change into the way you normally work and live, and point it at the larger goals and ambitions you named at the start.
The final session reviews the whole programme and sets out how you carry it forward.
Who the programme suits
It suits people who want a thorough, planned piece of work and can give it attention between sessions. If several of these sound familiar, raise it on the free call.
- You have worked on the problem before and it keeps returning.
- Your confidence has been low for years rather than weeks.
- You want to change a habit, such as smoking or comfort eating, and keep it changed.
- You are facing a big transition and want support from the first step to the last.
- You want structure and someone to report back to, rather than occasional advice.
- You have a clear ambition and want a plan built around reaching it.
Where it runs and how payment works
Everything is agreed before the programme starts, so you know what you are paying for and when each session happens.
- In person. At 1 Harley Street, London W1, or Quadrant Court, Edgbaston, Birmingham B15.

What clients say
Reviews published on this site, word for word.
I struggled through the second lockdown and used food as a coping mechanism. Finding Stuart was the best thing that could have happened at that point in my life, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Stuart to anyone suffering from an eating disorder.
The whole experience was fantastic from start to finish! Booking was easy and Stuart had a brief chat with me before I committed to an initial session. He put my mind at ease from the very start. Thank you Stuart, so very much!

Questions about the programme
What is the Power and Positivity Programme?
It is a coaching programme I design around your needs, goals and ambitions. It runs as eight or twelve 90-minute sessions in phases: Instigation, then Positive Reinforcement, and on the twelve-session version, Realisation, Consolidation and Achievement. You don’t slot into a fixed course; the course is shaped to you.
Should I choose eight or twelve sessions?
Eight sessions suit one main area where you want a change made and kept. Twelve suit bigger goals, several areas at once, or a problem you want support with over a few months. I’ll give you my honest view after the discovery session, and I’ll suggest eight if eight is enough.
Do I need the discovery session first?
Yes. The discovery session is where I learn what the programme has to be built around. It is 90 minutes, paid in advance, and you can book it on its own with no obligation to continue. Before that, the free 30-minute call costs nothing.
Can I do the programme online?
Yes. Online sessions on Zoom, FaceTime or phone follow the same phases as sessions at 1 Harley Street or in Edgbaston, and either option costs the same online. Some people start in the room and finish online, or the other way round.
Can I spread the cost?
Yes. Payment plans are available by agreement for both the eight and twelve-session options. Otherwise the programme is paid in advance or at the start of its first session, by bank transfer, PayPal, credit card or standing order mandate.
What if I need to move a session?
Email me at least 48 hours before the appointment and wait for my written confirmation of the new date. A session cancelled with less notice, or without that confirmation, is charged. The fees page has the full terms.
