Em Whitfield Brooks

Find Your Voice. Strengthen Your Presence. Speak With Confidence.

I specialise in creative facilitation and authentic communication.

I help leaders, individuals and teams develop vocal confidence and dynamic presence through coaching, facilitation and creative voice practice.

My background is in theatre, music, circus and large-scale performance. With a degree in Drama and extensive vocal training I’m a published songwriter, choral leader, jazz singer and qualified coach.

I have led countless workshops and residencies across the UK and internationally for professional, corporate, and community clients of all ages and coached senior leaders and individuals online and in person since 2019.

I’ve directed and co-produced numerous arts projects and was Artistic Director of Helmsley Arts Centre 2012 - 2016.

I have decades of experience supporting people and teams to develop confidence, presence and authentic communication. Find out more on my About Me page.
