Annie Fontaine Life Coach London Reviews 

Finding out I had ADHD at 49 left me questioning who I was and the life decisions I had made. Annie helped me find my footing. Her coaching gave me the direction, clarity, and self-acceptance I desperately needed. She has an incredible ability to listen, understand the adult ADHD mind, and helped me navigate and translate the chaos into a true sense of identity and purpose. If you are looking for a coach who truly gets it, Annie is someone you can rely on to get you moving forward with belief. She is exceptional and genuinely cares about your self improvement.

Annie has been life-changing! She has helped me shift my mindset and believe in myself again. Huge thank you — highly recommended!

I just want to say how thankful I am for everything you’ve done for me and Bob. I honestly can’t believe how good things are between us now it feels like a completely different relationship, and that’s all because of you.

When we started, I felt totally lost. I was 36, a mum of three little ones, and I’d forgotten who I was and what I needed. You helped me find myself again. You gave me the space, tools, and confidence to understand my emotions and take back control of my life.

Now I feel grounded, clear, and more myself than I have in years. I carry so much of what I’ve learned with me every day. You’ve helped change our lives and I’ll always be grateful for that. Thank you Annie xx

I’d love to give Annie six stars as I got so much out of her life coaching. She has an uncanny knack of hitting the mark in every session while making it fun and enjoyable. Her worksheets give you a completely different perspective on life and have a transformational impact on your wellbeing. Annie also keeps you honest by ensuring you put the tips into practice and is always on hand to offer invaluable advice. My only regret is that I didn’t sign up 20 years earlier.

Annie and I first met about 4 years ago when I finally accepted I might need help understand the 'not' so merry-go-round that was inside my head. I saw her and online and after reading her skill area, I thought I'd give Annie a call....... I had a first session and it was hell, but knew I had to push through, afterwards I think I went to the pub and distressed. I did about 1 months worth of CBT and thought I felt better, thought I was fixed, so stopped. Within a month I had returned to my embedded ways I was pre-programmed to and continued in a downwards spiral. Fast forward 3 years and I was at rock bottom.... I had help from the Dr's which didn't help, professional services via Bupa, which was ok, but I got back in touch with Annie and knew this was my last chance. I put 100% into the work with Annie as it really was my last chance. Through my commitments to CBT, life has given me another chance, a chance to breathe, a chance to live and a chance to be the person I always wanted to be. Without even trying, a positive side effect of CBT with Annie, is that I've completely stopped the feeling for drinking alcohol. Since the age of 16 I have drank alcohol possibly every night, thinking I was doing myself a favour by 'chilling out' however all I was doing was compacting problem ontop of problem, working harder to keep my mind busy, then drinking harder to chill my mind out. I'm so glad to say I'm alive, I'm here and enjoy the quiet times, the peace, the relaxing and the relationships I now have with People. None of this would be possible without the skill and determination Annie had to help me through the darkest time. Annie really is an amazing person, so if there is anything in life your struggling to understand, getting confused with, frustrated with, give Annie a call.... Thanks again Annie

I first met Annie in 2022 when police helped me to get out of a coercive controlling relationship and lawyers advised me to get Cognitive behavioural therapy. I had such a quick turn around I decided it would benefit my daughter so with Annie's aid we went through another process in 2023 to help with my daughters anxiety. She ended up being long listed for the UK team. Fast forward to 2025, I got a special offer from Annie and decided to have another go of life coaching. Somehow, its all come together and I no longer feel guilty for making the right choices for me and my family nor do I feel anxious about subtly putting boundaries in. I have now got habitual responses everytime Im putting in a difficult position that are coping mechanisms to help me glide through life calmly and happily without going down rabbit holes. I just feel so calm and relaxed and definitely like a teenager again and any time I don't, I automatically use the tools Annie taught me and helped me save on my worksheets then Im soon back to normal. Annie thinks I have ADHD and I just have multiple demands but with Annie's help I definitely execute the tasks that are more important and I hardly spend time procrastinating anymore.

I went to Annie at the end of december 2024 for help with self esteem. Now we've finished the course of our sessions I can honestly say that my self esteem has improved immensely. I'm a 20 year old in uni who was having major issues with organisation, relationships and confidence. Annie's refreshing bluntness and focus on actions and problem-solving rather than overthinking and dwelling on problems has significantly improved my productivity and my outlook on myself and life. She would set weekly homework that she would rigorously check and evaluate, which holds you accountable and makes sure that you are investing time in yourself outside of the sessions throughout the week for self-improvement. I also struggle with ADHD and Annie convinced me to enquire about medication and gave me many homework resources on discipline and habits, and I've noticed that my studying and productivity has significantly improved. If you are someone who struggles a lot with self-esteem and has tried therapies but not seen much improvement, I couldn't recommend Annie enough as her focused, solution-based, no BS approach has really made an impact.

If you are thinking about divorce, resenting your partner, or not seing sense in your marriage anymore, speak to Annie..
My wife and I were at breaking point but we decided to give a final push as neither of us wanted a divorce.
Annie has genuinely saved our marriage. We have explored different techniques, looked at how we had lost ourselves in our relationship, after 15 years and 2 children later. We had to dig deap, work hard and self reflect a lot. A few home thruth later, the outcome is so much better than we ever expected, and all of this, within 2 months.
We could not recommed or thank Annie enough for her straight forward approach, personnality, perseverance, knowledge and simply for her professional help.
No divorce on the horizon anymore.

Annie did just what she said she would; help me to find practical tools to feel in control of my life. She pushed me to do the work, gave me theories and exercises which allowed me to relax and trust that there was a practical route out of the unhealthy habits I had built up. She is direct when she needs to be and you really feel like work has been done after each session. Go for it. It will be worth it.

I came to Annie with a really tough decision I was faced with, which was either to leave my 6 year relationship or to stay. My head was a scramble I couldn’t figure out who I was or what I wanted. Annie helped me unscramble that brain by helping me focus on my true self, what my core values were and my wants and needs. That helped me make that tough decision which was to leave and it was for the very best . She gave me my power and my happiness back and I am so grateful to her.

To say that Annie has really changed my life around would be an understatement. I came to Annie at a time when I was feeling very lost and my anxiety had come back and I was at a cross road. She holds you accountable (in the best way) and has taught me so much and for that I am eternally grateful. She has really helped me to find myself again and my purpose and I couldn't recommend her enough. Thank you so much!!

Our teenage daughter recently moved from a good mixed sex school at 11+ to a highly competitive London girls school. By age 13, what we had presumed were just common struggles with the trials of transitioning to being a teenager (which we felt we could support her through), had blown up into something much more serious which we needed some professional help to address. Fortunately, after some less helpful "therapists" we found Annie, who was able to help turn things around. What we really appreciated about Annie were 1) her willingness to work with us as parents and understand our views on our daughter, 2) the hugely practical advice and techniques she has imparted to our daughter to make her more resilient, raise her sense of self-worth, and generally see things in a more balanced and positive way, 3) her ability to mend bridges between us and our Daughter in a constructive way, 4) her experience as a mother herself, 5) her general life coaching experience. Annie's involvement has made a massive difference and our Daughter is now in a much better place as a result. She has also learnt some essential life skills to apply independently as she faces the inevitable challenges of life

For most my adult life I have struggled with anxiety. Determined to get it under control I have seen 4 different therapists over the years. Some great, some not so much. Through this process though, I learned a lot about why I feel the way I do about certain things. However, as great as that was, therapist use non-judgemental language which means they avoid leading the client and passing opinion. As a result they never tell you what you should do. I came to Annie with the aim of learning what action I need to take to beat anxiety. Annie will tell you what she thinks which is what I needed. Her approach is very practical requiring you to put into practice the incredible tools she provides you. What I have learnt has completely changed the way I think and with it I have become a happier more positive person. My happy days are happier, and my low days are less frequent, less severe, and don't last as long. As I continue to apply what Annie has taught me I know this trajectory of positive change will only improve. Thank you Annie. I just wish I had found you 20 years ago!

I am coming to the end of my 12-week course with Annie, and I genuinely could not recommend her more. She has helped me understand myself more, and the areas I need to work in, and provided me the tools with which to address these issues so I can become the version of the man I want to be. She has helped me get through a tough break up, and build my self-esteem and discipline so I becoming more confident in my own skin.

Her online platform is fantastic as you have easy access to worksheets, files, and can use it to track metrics and keep journal entries. What I love about Annie as a life coach is the fact that she makes you take accountability for the things going on in your life, and expects you to work between sessions to truly immerse yourself in the self-help process. This has helped me massively.

Despite the fact that there is still a long road ahead, I am now equipped with an arsenal of techniques to help deal with negative thoughts and emotions, and have built drive to become the best version of myself.

Life changing! Annie is kind and sympathetic, but more importantly, she holds you accountable (in a nice way), not allowing you to tell yourself lies, which is really important if you want to get any value out of your coaching experience.

She really cares about her client's goals and provides practical tools to help you reframe your thinking and overcome self-limiting beliefs.

If you want to get more out of life or relationships, you must give Annie a try as, like me, I am sure it will change your life.

I cannot recommend Annie enough to anyone that’s struggling with anxiety, low self esteem, low moods and if you’re also trying to work towards life and career goals.

She’s an incredible listener, with an empathetic and direct approach. I left each session feeling better and having a better understanding of myself. She gave me tasks at the end of each session. I loved this structure because it felt like we were working towards a “goal”. I knew things were working when family, friends and colleagues had noticed changes in me!

It’s three years since my last session with Annie, I am still use the tools and skills she taught me on a daily basis. I honestly believe that I wouldn’t be where I am today, personally and professionally, without the work I’ve done with Annie!

I wasn't completely sure that life coaching was for me and was a bit sceptical going into it, but I am so thankful for my sessions with Annie. She has supported me with kindness, energy and clarity every step of the way, and got me thinking in a whole new way about myself, my relationships, my future and my past. There are so many great tools and resources which she has shared with me and which I now use on a daily basis, and the online platform is really intuitive and easy to use - it's fantastic to have life-long asses to everything we have done in the sessions. Annie has given me the tools, confidence and motivation to change my life, and I couldn't recommend her enough.

Annie is that pocket rocket life coach that I absolutely needed. Feeling pretty lost in almost every aspect of my life, I reached out to her on a whim and have never regretted it since. Not only do I feel I have gained a wonderful friendship but I am now starting to see the positive effects of all those weeks of consistent, life coaching with her. In my experience it is a subtle shift in the thoughts, beliefs and actions I use to carry about myself that had been weighing me down for years. So I can only credit Annie and her emotional support and strength building techniques that have gotten me to where I am today. Nothing is a magic bullet, so you really need to put in the effort, energy and time to prioritise your own mental health but to have a brilliant life coach like Annie to guide you along the way just made those steps more positive, believable and obtainable. So, I would say don’t waist anymore time and just go for it! :)

My partner and I had life coaching with Annie over the course of 12 weeks and we found it a very valuable experience. We came out of the process having gained clarity over the issues we'd been finding challenging and having agreed a way forward, which is great as that's exactly what we were looking to achieve. Annie's style is no-nonsense and direct, but kind and empathetic at the same time. She is knowledgeable about a wide range of self-development areas and we found the online resources and platform helpful to keep track of our progress. I would recommend her to other couples looking to find clarity and move forward.

I decided to use a life coach when my relationship was in trouble and Annie was there to help me see more clearly, understand my emotions and give me techniques that helped me through this very difficult time. I never thought I would be in a position like this and the term life coach was completely new to me, yes I had heard of counselling of course but life coach?? Sounded a bit poncy! But after discovering how a life coach works, I would consider using Annie for other parts of life - anything that requires a change or a goal and I’m not sure how to reach it. In my busy life of 3 kids and working 4 days a week it’s important to have this one hour for me, my thoughts, to be validated and to get a road map of how to achieve my goals. Well worth the money!!
