Who are we?

Positive Change Associates came into being in 1990, starting the decade training counsellors in therapies for the resolution of post-traumatic stress disorder. The role of the group expanded in 1994 to include entry level courses for people wanting stress management and NLP training for personal and professional use. Over the last decade the extent of our work in individual, professional and team coaching has increased in parallel with our unique development of the CORE interactive software for the analysis and diagnosis of people's beliefs and values. In 2008 the original founders of PCA moved to North Yorkshire; coaching can now be obtained at offices in Harrogate or in the privacy of a rural setting in the unique village of Nun Monkton, half way between York and Harrogate.  

Coaching is offered by both Pamela Hayes and Dr Philip Hayes in either Harrogate or Nun Monkton.
