Work With Me

An integrated approach that combines forward-focused strategy with deep psychological insight, supporting both your ambitions and the inner work needed to sustain them.

This method recognises the powerful connection between emotional well-being and high-level performance. When your internal world is clear and aligned, your external results follow.

Together, we strengthen the mental and physical foundations that allow you to thrive, building the clarity, regulation, and resilience needed to succeed in a way that feels energising, not depleting.

This is about helping you operate at your highest level, without sacrificing your peace, health, or happiness in the process.

Nikki Foord

Business Strategist & Coach | Psychotherapist | Myotherapist

Byron Bay, Australia

I’ve had a passion for working with people for as long as I can remember, finding genuine joy in helping others overcome physical challenges and reclaim their quality of life. Over the past two decades, I’ve worked with a wide range of clients from elite athletes to individuals managing chronic pain, injury, or the toll of occupational stress supporting them to restore function, mobility, and confidence in their bodies.

My curiosity didn’t stop at the physical. I became deeply fascinated by the mind-body connection, how our biology, psychology, and environment shape the way we show up in life. Our attachment styles, past experiences, and nervous system responses silently influence our behaviours, our success, and our sense of fulfilment.

This curiosity became my calling.

Today, I specialise in working with entrepreneurs and professionals who are outwardly thriving but inwardly stretched thin, those who appear to “have it all,” yet often feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or close to burnout. They’re high-performing, but the pace has become unsustainable.

My approach weaves together the practical clarity of goal-driven coaching with the depth and nuance of performance psychotherapy. It honours both your ambition and the emotional patterns that may quietly influence how you lead, work, and live.

Because no two people are the same, every collaboration is tailored. I create personalised pathways that help you reconnect with yourself, release the internal pressure, and build a version of success that’s both sustainable and deeply fulfilling, professionally and personally.

With a Master’s in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a Bachelor of Health Science in Myotherapy, I offer a grounded, integrated lens that bridges the body, mind, and emotional landscape. This work is about more than improvement, it’s about returning to yourself and creating a life that feels calm, clear, and aligned with what truly matters.

Let’s collaborate to build a life and business that supports not just your success, but your happiness, vitality, and peace.

    Success is heavily determined by your openness to the process and your desire to create change in your life.

  • With over two decades of experience supporting clients through musculoskeletal and neurological challenges, I’ve come to understand that true transformation requires more than just physical recovery; it requires tending to the whole person: mind, body, and emotional landscape.

    This work is about helping you reconnect with yourself on every level. We uncover the unconscious patterns, beliefs, and behaviours that silently shape how you live, lead, and relate, so you can break free from what no longer serves you.

    Together, we shift old ways of operating, build emotional resilience, and align your internal world with the life and business you’re ready to create. It’s not about forcing change, it’s about creating the right conditions for it to unfold with clarity and confidence.

    I also recognise that no single approach works for everyone. That’s why our work is always personalised, rooted in deep collaboration and tailored to your unique goals, challenges, and capacity for change.
