About us

About us

Red Arbre believes that enjoying your work, and harnessing your talents, matters. It helps you to make the most out of life.

 

We specialise in helping workers to feel happier at work and to overcome Imposter Syndrome.  We know that having space to think things through and a structure to move things forward can make the world of difference when things are 'not quite right'.  
 
Whether you are an organisation who recognises how key having satisfied employees is to your success, or whether you are an individual looking to make things better at work, our personalised and expert coaching service aims to give you the support you need.

'Arbre’ is French for ‘tree’ and the name Red Arbre is inspired by Shaun Tan’s incredible book The Red Tree.  The book is a reminder of how there is always a way forward, even if things feel overwhelming or look bleak. 

Who we work with

Who we work with

 

We have been fortunate in working with lawyers, management consultants and finance specialists, as well as UN personnel, healthcare professionals, and many more. 
 
We also work side by side with employers, helping their workers to feel happier at work. 
 
We know these things are not always easy, and we are here to help you work through it.

What we do

How we work

What we do

We understand that everyone is different.  We tailor coaching sessions, workshops and talks to your needs.  

If you are an organisation or employer looking for tailored support for your workers or a particular group of workers, we take the time to discuss what would work best for you.

For individuals wanting help that is committed solely to your individual growth and development needs, our coaching sessions aim to meet you where you are. 

Sessions can focus on any of our main themes and they can include other areas which are particularly important for you:

 

  • Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
     

  • Changing career direction
     

  • Being happier at work
     

How we work

Group sessions

For our corporate clients we offer talks, seminars, and workshops tailored to your needs. 

One-to-one coaching

For individuals wanting coaching sessions, your coach will work with you using a combination of questioning techniques and exploration exercises.  This can involve, for example, crafting goals, thinking through obstacles, forming action plans, fixing timelines, and creating space for regular reviews and follow ups – all to support you in moving forward.   We just ask that you set aside the time for yourself.

One-to-one coaching

“Nazish is very personable and exudes calm confidence which creates an open and trusting backdrop to the coaching sessions.  I would hire her again without hesitation.” (Lawyer)
 
“Nazish takes time to build trust, rapport and understanding.  She is not afraid to ask the difficult questions – the ones that really stretch and force you to the core of exceptional performance.  For anyone serious about their career, I would recommend working with a coach.  Further, for anyone serious about excelling in their career and realising peak performance, I would strongly recommend working with Nazish.”  (Management consultant)
 
“I had been procrastinating about applying for a new job for several months.  Within a week of my first coaching session I had updated my CV, and a week after that I had my first interview.  The coaching gave me the impetus to apply for a new job.  Nazish was an excellent coach and I do not believe I would have done any of this without her coaching.” (Investment banker)
 
“Coaching made me see things clearly, appreciate what I have and work on what I need.  It taught me to organise my thoughts, prioritise, and work in a structured manner.  Life has been in control since, and I highly recommend coaching to everyone and my wonderful coach Nazish who helped me through it.” (Health professional)
 
“Throughout coaching sessions with Nazish I have felt understood and comfortable; she has pushed me to achieve more, while still respecting my boundaries.  I am now very confident in where I am going and how to get there.” (Entrepreneur)
