Our Coaching Approach

About Jill Wigmore-Welsh

I’m Jill Wigmore-Welsh, a Behavioural Psychologist, NLP Master Trainer, Psychotherapist, and Embodied Leadership Coach.

I specialise in neurodiversity in the workplace and bring decades of clinical and behavioural-science experience to support diverse cognitive profiles..

My work centres on helping organisations and professional individuals navigate complexity with clarity, grounded confidence, and emotionally intelligent leadership. I bring together behavioural science, somatic awareness, narrative psychology, and practical communication skills to create meaningful, sustainable change in how people think, speak, decide, and work together.

​​

Throughout my career, I’ve developed a distinctive approach to human behaviour and leadership, grounded in rigorous clinical training and applied behavioural science. My background in psychotherapy and clinical hypnotherapy provides a strong foundation in trauma-informed practice, nervous-system awareness, and the relational dynamics that influence how people think, act, and interact under pressure. Alongside this, I draw on positive psychology, executive-function coaching, and decades of experience teaching advanced communication modelling through the complete NLP pathway to Master Trainer level.

I also have a long-established specialist focus on neurodiversity. For more than 25 years I’ve worked with professionals with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, and acquired neurodivergence following concussion, stroke, and neurological illness..

 

This blend of behavioural science, clinical practice and executive-function expertise allows me to understand both the cognitive and somatic realities of how diverse brains operate under pressure — and how to support high-performing professionals to thrive in demanding environments.

​​

A central part of my work involves restorying — helping people understand the language, metaphors, and internal narratives that quietly shape their behaviour. Words create worlds: the stories leaders tell themselves influence how they show up, how they listen, how they make decisions, and how they lead others. Through presence-based work and my long-standing interest in “word intelligence,” I I support clients to recognise unhelpful scripts and to craft language that strengthens clarity, confidence, and authentic direction. that strengthens clarity, confidence, and authentic direction.

​​

Alongside behavioural psychology and narrative work, I bring advanced embodiment skills that help leaders sense their patterns rather than simply think about them. Small shifts in breath, movement, and attention can change the story a leader tells — to themselves and to others — giving them greater clarity, emotional steadiness, and authentic authority.

​​

This integrated framework enables clients to recognise the cognitive, emotional, and behavioural patterns behind their decisions and relationships — and then develop new, more intentional ways of thinking, responding, and leading. My work is experiential, precise, and designed to create psychological safety while supporting profound, sustainable behavioural change.

​​

I created Professionals in Mind for people who want to lead with presence rather than pressure, to be authentic, strong and healthy. I help individuals and teams strengthen executive functioning, improve decision-making, shift habitual responses, and create cultures where psychological safety and genuine belonging can take root.

​​

Leadership, in my view, is not a role — it’s a behavioural practice. It shows up in how we shape conversations, how we hold space for difference, and how we respond when the stakes are high. Through coaching, training, and consultancy, I support leaders in communicating with intention, cultivating trust, and fostering environments where diverse minds can thrive.

​​

Clients describe my style as kind, purposeful, and insightfully direct. I work with senior leaders, founders, and high-performing professionals across law, finance, technology, creative industries, and professional services. My aim is consistent: to develop the behavioural intelligence, linguistic clarity, and inner coherence that support authentic performance and resilient leadership.

If you’re ready to think better, lead better, and build a culture where people can do their best work, Professionals in Mind is the right place to begin.
