Theresa Quinn
Coaching Psychologist
Theresa is a qualified coaching psychologist with a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology. Theresa has been coaching for many years, nearly 8 of those with Genius Within. She specifically coaches in neurodiversity and the crossover with stress & anxiety, overwhelm, wellbeing (including hormonal), PTSD and flourishing at work.
In her coaching Theresa creates a psychologically safe space for reflection, confidence building and identifying what is needed to thrive, such as self-understanding supported by practical strategies. With a focus on identifying strengths and how they can be applied, Theresa supports finding long term solutions that promote sustainable personal and professional growth. If providing answers verbally is challenging, Theresa also coaches with bricks allowing you to build answers to questions.
Theresa has experience of coaching in a wide variety of settings; government agencies, banking, NHS, police, large corporations, education and fire service alongside more personal coaching.
When Theresa is coaching at her best, she gives you the space and time to think, be heard and understood, creating space to move forward with goals.
Prior to coaching Theresa worked in education, particularly in the areas of psychology, neurodiversity and resilience.
