Unlock Clarity. Lead With Courage.

“Break Free. Rise Above. Lead with Purpose.”

"Coaching is about exploration—within and beyond."

As a leader, you navigate unseen forces every day—pressures, expectations, and competing commitments—that pull you off course. My coaching process helps you pause, reflect, and reconnect with the clarity, courage, and purpose that drive impactful leadership.

Drawing from my background as an astrophysicist, somatic practitioner, and leadership coach, I use a systems-based approach to uncover what’s holding you back and map out a path forward. Together, we’ll transform unconscious blocks, restore alignment, and unlock your full potential.

Whether you’re leading a team, an organization, or simply leading yourself, this work will give you the tools to rise above the noise, face challenges with confidence, and move with intention.

Leaders Aren't The Only Ones Struggling

You might be reading this and thinking, “Well, Dr. Shambrook, I’m not a CEO, Vice President, or some big, famous leader. I don’t have a fancy title or position—but I struggle with stress, sometimes feel like a failure, and worry I’m heading straight for burnout. Can you work with me?”

The answer is yes.

I work with people from all walks of life—not just those with corner offices or impressive titles. When you strip away the labels and societal expectations, what’s left? Humanity.

Struggle doesn’t care about your job title. Everyone faces moments of self-doubt, overwhelm, or uncertainty. Everyone deserves support, clarity, and a space to realign with their values and potential.

Whether you’re navigating life’s challenges as a teacher, parent, entrepreneur, or simply as someone seeking a better path, I’m here to help. Let’s uncover what’s holding you back and create the momentum you need to move forward—with purpose and resilience.

Only 29% of companies offer training for crucial leadership skills, potentially contributing to challenges in effective leadership. - Jobera, 2024

Parts Work: A Path to Clarity and Integration

Ever felt like one part of you wants to take charge, while another hesitates out of fear? That’s where Parts Work comes in. This transformative methodology helps you understand the different “voices” or “parts” within you—like the Inner Critic, the Achiever, or the Protector—and how they shape your thoughts, feelings, and actions.

By recognizing and working with these parts, you can reduce inner conflict, reconnect with your core values, and make decisions with greater clarity and confidence. Whether you’re a leader juggling priorities or someone navigating personal challenges, Parts Work offers a powerful lens for growth and self-leadership.

When you reach a crossroads or challenge in life, ignored parts of you take over. Your journey can feel chaotic and out of control.

Some part of you is in the driver’s seat… but others are riding along, or locked away in the trunk, waiting to be heard.

When your healed, awakened self takes the wheel, your parts can work together, and your life moves forward with purpose because chaos is no longer in control.

I work with people to put a better version of them in the driver's seat.

Trauma-Informed Coaching: A Compassionate Approach to Growth

Trauma-Informed Coaching (TIC) acknowledges that past experiences—whether dramatic or seemingly minor—can shape how we navigate the world. In this context, trauma isn’t limited to life-altering catastrophes. It can also arise from chronic stress, workplace pressures, unmet expectations, or a series of smaller challenges that accumulate over time. These experiences can create patterns or beliefs that hold us back, often operating beneath conscious awareness.

Why Trauma-Informed Coaching Matters

In today’s fast-paced environments, many people carry the weight of invisible burdens—whether from personal struggles, professional stress, or unmet goals. These experiences can manifest as feelings of inadequacy, burnout, or being “stuck,” and traditional coaching methods may overlook their deeper roots. Trauma-Informed Coaching provides a safe and supportive space to explore these barriers, fostering resilience, self-awareness, and lasting transformation.

Client Feedback

I could really be myself with Anouk. Trust was a crucial foundation for going deep. She didn’t judge me, so I felt comfortable opening up. In fact, I realized that part of my problem was how much I judged myself! Working with her allowed me to get to know myself and to learn tools specific to my situation. That helped me understand, “Who am I? Why am I acting in certain ways? And how can I change that?” So now I feel happier, more confident, and less stressed. -Alita Abdel

I had a session with Dr. Anouk Shambrook yesterday. The focus of her coaching was to bring awareness to the different personalities that make up my persona and develop self-love and acceptance. I got to embrace my powerful inner critic, my thwarted vulnerable self and so much more. By developing awareness, I feel more freedom and choice. I highly recommend a session with Anouk!! - E. I.
