About Me
Hi. I’m Ross Thompson, a Resilience & Mindset Life Coach based in West Sussex. I specialise in empowering, motivating and upskilling young people, adults and professionals to overcome challenges and achieve their full potential.
Through targeted coaching and training, I help clients develop their resilience, embrace a growth mindset and gain the confidence to thrive, no matter what challenges they are facing.
My Career In Safeguarding & Coaching
My career started in the education sector, where I supported some of the most vulnerable and at-risk young people across the UK. Today, in addition to my work as a Coach, I am the Strategic Safeguarding Manager in a Pupil Referral Unit, safeguarding and mentoring young people through some of their toughest challenges.
I manage a team of Outreach Mentors, ensuring students receive one-to-one targeted mentoring support. I design and deliver bespoke training to staff, equipping them to better support young people and their families.
Having worked across primary, secondary and post-16 education, I’ve seen first-hand how early intervention can transform lives. These experiences inspired me to expand my impact beyond education and into coaching.
My Mission As A Coach
Coaching became not just a career path, but a deeply personal mission. I’ve witnessed too many young people and families struggle without the support they need, as well as adults and professionals held back by self-doubt and a lack of belief in themselves.
My coaching approach focuses on building resilience and developing a growth mindset. Whether you're facing personal challenges, feeling stuck or striving to progress in your career, I’m here to support you to move forward with clarity and determination.
I Offer Targeted Coaching & Training
With over 15 years of experience working directly with young people, adults, parents and professionals, I provide coaching tailored to individual needs. If you’re a young person working through the challenges that come with being a teenager, an adult dealing with life’s challenges or a professional breaking through career barriers, I will help you build the tools and strategies to succeed.
While my sessions are delivered online, I also offer face-to-face coaching locally (subject to availability). Connecting with clients from diverse backgrounds and experiences across the world is something I value.
My Expertise
My coaching is built on a solid foundation of training, qualifications and expertise. I am qualified in Safeguarding & Child Protection, Mentoring, Counselling Skills and CEOP Education (Child Exploitation & Online Protection).
I’m also trained in Mental Health First Aid, Specialist Support for Teaching & Learning in Schools, Speech & Language and Team Leading. My comprehensive background allows me to address a wide range of challenges, ensuring my coaching is informed, relevant and most importantly, effective.
Become The Best Version Of Yourself
I’m passionate about helping you thrive. Whether you’re looking to overcome personal obstacles, take your career to the next level or find a new direction, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
Together, we’ll build resilience, confidence and strategies to achieve meaningful progress. Let’s connect and start unlocking your potential.
The only limits to what you can achieve are the ones you set for yourself.
