ABOUT ME
Lynsey Allison
I am an Executive Performance & Wellbeing Coach with 18 years coaching experience, a range of coaching qualifications and 6 years university training in psychology, including a Masters degree in Coaching Psychology and a Bachelor degree (Hons) in Psychology. I initially trained as a Brief Therapist and Solution Focused Coach in 2005, before specialising in Executive Performance and Wellbeing Coaching in 2017.
My coaching approach is strengths based, solution focused and cognitive behavioural. I draw on the coaching psychology, positive psychology and sports psychology evidence base in an integrative way to help you be at your best in your professional and personal life. I am a member of the British Psychological Society and ICF registered. I am currently in the process of becoming a Chartered Coaching Psychologist through the BPS in the UK.
Prior to establishing LA Potential in 2017, I had a successful corporate career in London and Sydney with various senior roles in leadership, consulting, HR, L&D, recruitment, operations and change management, while also managing a part time coaching business. In 2017 I decided to take a leap of faith and follow my passion full time, to help others live their best life.
Outside of work I love to be outside, ride my horses, go on adventures, have fun and enjoy the simple things in life.

OUR APPROACH
Coaching Psychology
Coaching Psychology systematically applies behavioural science to the enhancement of life experience, work performance and well-being for individuals, groups and organisations. It draws on a number of theories and frameworks including cognitive behavioural, solution-focused, systemic, positive psychology and psychodynamic.
Positive Psychology is the study of human flourishing, and an applied approach to optimal functioning. It is the study of strengths and virtues that enable individuals, communities & organisations to thrive. Positive psychology coaching (PPC) is a scientifically rooted approach to helping clients increase well-being, enhance and apply strengths, improve performance, and achieve valued goals. At the core of PPC is a belief in the power of science to elucidate the best (Kauffman, Boniwell, and Silberman, 2010).
At L.A Potential we recognise that these are complementary sciences and draw on both to help clients achieve meaningful, transformational change in their lives
