Thrive
SUPPORT FOR STRESS, OVERWHELM & BURNOUT.
Helping you find calm, restore your energy and thrive again.
You're still functioning.
But something doesn't feel right.
Perhaps you're still working, looking after your family and getting through everything that needs to be done. But you're exhausted.
You can't switch off properly. Your sleep isn't what it used to be. You're more irritable, anxious or overwhelmed. Things that once felt manageable now take more effort.
You may not think of yourself as “burnt out” or “stressed”. But somewhere in the back of your mind is the thought:
I can't keep going like this.
Burnout rarely happens overnight. Recognising the warning signs early gives you an opportunity to make changes before things get serious.
Reach out with no obligation to discuss how Thrive coaching can help you.

Burnout Prevention & wellbeing coach
English-speaking | Lake Zurich | Online
Hi, I'm Lizzie
I'm an English-speaking wellbeing and burnout prevention coach based in and around Zurich. Before moving into coaching and wellbeing, I worked in Human Resources consulting and completed postgraduate training in Human Resources. My interest has always been people: how we live, how we work and what allows us to thrive rather than simply cope.
Today, my professional training includes wellbeing and life coaching (with the International Coaching Federation), positive psychology, mental health and wellbeing, burnout prevention and yoga.
I combine these disciplines to provide a calm, confidential space where you can understand what's happening, regain perspective and make changes that last.
I live near Lake Zurich in Switzerland with my family and work with clients in English, both in person at my studio in Richterswil, in Zurich and online.

Are you running on empty?
Sometimes you know something needs to change, but you're not sure where to begin.
Perhaps you're feeling overwhelmed, constantly tired or struggling to find balance between work, family and your own wellbeing. You may know that your current pace isn't sustainable, but finding the time, energy or clarity to make changes can feel difficult. It's easy to dismiss these feelings as just part of a busy life. But they may be signs that your mind and body need more support.
You don't need to wait until you're completely exhausted to make a change.

There's no pressure or obligation, simply an opportunity to connect and see if we're a good fit.
