About Me

I’ve always been fascinated by what enables people to meet challenges with clarity and presence. Working with senior women leaders, I see how much brilliance can be locked up by hidden pressures, old patterns, or the sheer intensity of high-stakes roles. My work is about helping you reclaim that energy so it fuels your leadership, rather than holding it back.

I’m Marian Staal, and I specialise in enhancing leadership performance for senior women in high-stakes contexts.

Complimenting many years in senior management roles, I bring together three strands of expertise: EMDR Practitioner, Integrative Psychotherapist, and ICF-Credentialed Coach. This unique blend allows me to work at the level of both system and strategy. My approach is practical and compassionate, yet also exacting in service of your potential.

At its heart, this work is about your nervous system. When old, encoded patterns of response get in the way of clarity or performance, we process and resolve them—freeing capacity that can then be translated into visible leadership outcomes. The process is rigorous, but the results are lasting.

Within The Leadership Reset, I offer both dedicated individual work and a cohort-based approach, where development is deepened and supported in a trusted peer-group setting.

For many, this process is the reset that unlocks clarity and restores access to potential. If you’re ready to explore what it could mean for your leadership, the next step is straightforward: explore the programme, get in touch or book a call to discuss Your Reset here.

Professional Standards

I hold myself to clear professional standards and the ethical practices of the NCIP/ICIP as well as the ICF. I undertake regular clinical supervision and ongoing CPD. I work in Private Practice online with clients throughout the UK and Internationally, and in person in France. I hold clear professional boundaries with appropriate referral pathways in place.
