HI, I’M ELLIE - I’M A SOBER COACH

I help courageous women break free from alcohol for good, through a journey of curiosity, discovery and self-compassion.

After years feeling trapped by alcohol and full of shame, I uncovered a radically different approach to quitting drinking. I'm now on a mission to support other women to discover what I did so that they, like me, can find true freedom.

If you’re ready to leave alcohol behind for good, I’d love to help you get to where you want to be. All my coaching packages are one-to-one support delivered online.

MY APPROACH 》

Why sober coaching?

Guidance, inspiration and support
from someone who’s been there.

All your feelings are welcome here. All of you is welcome here.

I believe you have all the answers you need. I believe the power to change is already within you. I also know that cutting down or quitting alcohol can be really hard - even if you’re drinking moderately.

If you’ve found it hard to quit, I want you to know: there is nothing wrong with you. Alcohol is an addictive substance. If you’re struggling to gain control over alcohol, that just means you’re a human.

I’m here to be your cheerleader. Your accountability partner. To hold you with compassion and understanding. I want you to know you’re not alone. I get it - I’ve been there. Read my story >>

This is a journey of true, lasting change.
One where you will:

  • Uncover the beliefs and myths about alcohol that are keeping you trapped

  • Receive evidence-based sobriety tools, practices and resources

  • Discover what you really want and need

  • Learn self-compassion and loving ways to meet your needs

  • Build a life aligned with your values

  • Show up as your true self

  • Get to be here - fully present and alive - for your one wild and precious life

I’m here to help you rediscover that brilliant light in you that’s always been there.

Testimonials

  • ‘I feel amazed at the progress I’ve made, feeling confident to move forward as a non-drinker and have been enjoying not drinking. I don't see alcohol as something I need any more.

    I loved Ellie’s approach and how she took time to learn about me and my circumstances at the initial consultation, and how much information and care she put in.’

    Sober coaching client

  • ‘My experience of working with Ellie has been an awakening of self-awareness and kindness to myself.

    My deepest wish for myself was to feel peace. I was sick of the internal struggle of whether to drink or not to drink. I have that peace now. I understand how to handle urges, triggers and realize that my brain is trying to help me. Understanding my brain and the pull of alcohol on my brain has given me peace and has made me realize that I am not broken.’

    Stefanie

  • ‘This helped me stay sober longer than anything else I've tried, so it was a very positive experience.

    ‘Before working with Ellie I was drinking almost daily and I wanted to stop drinking alone. During our time together I achieved my goal. I identified what I was trying to mask with alcohol and found new ways to enjoy my alone time. I understood what I was trying to avoid by drinking, and learned to give myself grace to just relax when not drinking.’

    Emily

  • ‘My experience working with Ellie has been transformational. Ellie has helped me to get to the root cause, rather than trying to just manage the symptoms (the drinking). This awareness has had a huge impact - I'm learning to sit with the feelings I was trying to numb and this has stopped me wanting to drink.

    ‘Having a coach with lived experience, who had come out of the other side, was the key for me in uncovering exactly what was going on and starting the path to change. It’s the first time I haven't felt judged in all the time I have tried to tackle this issue - and that has made all the difference.’

    Helen

  • ‘Before I started coaching with Ellie I was craving alcohol and drinking too much, and my health was suffering. I wanted to stop for good after stopping and starting many times.

    ‘I was drawn to work with Ellie because of her gentle and kind impression and her words, "it's only a part of you that still wants to drink." After our sessions I felt understood and deeply cared for.

    ‘Now I've stopped drinking. And when a craving comes up I think, this is only a part of me that wants a drink and that lessens the way it used to be so overwhelming.’

    Laurie

  • ‘I was drawn to Ellie because of her relatable experiences, knowledge and personable approach. After our sessions I always felt lifted, motivated and inspired. She was very encouraging and made me feel hopeful.

    Ellie introduced me to some new theories and books to read that gave me a fresh perspective and an alternative way to view my sobriety and past addiction. I was used to language and theories used by AA, so finding something new was very refreshing! I loved that Ellie didn’t view relapse as a failure but instead a learning experience and ‘data’ I could use to learn from.’
