The Team

Dr. Deborah Kerslake PhD

My driving force from a very early age has been, to help people be as happy with themselves and as fulfilled and content as possible.

Coming from a complimentary Therapies background, I became fascinated in the way the mind works and how that affects behaviour, health and success, so I did post graduate training in psychotherapy and hypnotherapy and continued my education by training in coaching mastery and becoming a professional life coach. With over 20 years experience in the field of human psychology and development, I also use NLP and CBT within my practice for an all round approach to helping people succeed. I specialise in helping people grow their personal leadership and communication skills to be more confident, effective and successful in whatever is important to them.

My daughter Camilla is a successful singer burgeoning into a genuine star of the classical-crossover genre www.camillakerslake.com I've always encouraged and coached Camilla to reach for her dreams and to keep going until she gets there. My husband Greg is an amazing chef and IT guru and is a master at helping us both remain grounded and in thinking creatively to overcome life's obstacles.

As a coach my aim for the client is to achieve a balanced personal and professional life, tailored to their desires and core values. I have a passion in the dynamics surrounding motivation, commitment and performance in successful people and how people perceive, process information, think, act, react and interact.

I am a Certified NLP Practitioner, NLP and ICF Coach, Hypnotherapist and Time-Line Therapist and currently in my final year of of studies for a B.Sc in Psychology. My specialisms include group coaching, team performance and facilitation.

For 12 years prior to this I held a number of commercial positions with Cadbury, Pepsico, and GlaxoSmithKline, most recently as Strategy Director. This combination has equipped me with a variety of skills and techniques to ensure a fun, inter-active and positive experience for the individual or team.

I live in Fleet in Hampshire with my very supportive husband and wonderful son and gorgeous little daughter. Away from work, I am a keen sports participant having attained top level recognition in the UK as a beach and indoor volleyball player. I am also an active supporter of several local charity initiatives.

More Success Stories

I found the [The Kerslake Company] course gave me everything I was hoping for and a whole bunch more. Not only did I complete the course feeling ready and competent to coach; I also had an enormous boost to my personal development and felt more confident, positive and energised than I had for years. This is a life changing course. Fantastic!! Julie Hagarty CEO

I just wanted to say again – thank you, the course exceeded expectations and was very affirming, professionally put together and delivered, and truly well worth the investment of time, money and energy.Jo Sumner, Reiki Teacher, Coach, Yoga and Meditation teacher

The course content is superb. There is something for everyone no matter what their line of business might be. That's aside from the fact their line of business might indeed be life coaching. It doesn't matter. Whatever road all of us who attended the course might now choose to travel, there is absolutely no doubt we are far, far, better equipped to deal with those decisions.Sandy Myhre, Journalist and Author
