About
Hi, my name is Veronica Millen.
As a qualified coach I am passionate about, and skilled at, supporting people to be their best. I work with people individually through one-on-one coaching and in groups via facilitating workshops.
Over my 25+ years in Human Resources in large corporates I honed my skills in coaching and facilitation. I coached team members, high potential employees and leaders; and facilitated workshops.
I now have over 1,000 hours of coaching experience and 2 coaching qualifications. I am accredited by the International Coaching Federation as a Professional Certified Coach.
My approach is to use scientific and evidence-based approaches to support you to be your best and unlock your potential.
I am based in Melbourne Australia and work with people face to face or virtually in locations across Australia and globally.
