Hello! I’m
Dorothy Martin
I understand your
frustration about stress
You've tried tools, strategies and stress management techniques to improve your wellbeing and have less stress, but still haven’t found an effective, long-term solution. Despite all your efforts to feel better and achieve the results you really want, you are not getting there. You may even feel like you are heading towards burnout or are trapped in difficult patterns and poor relationships dynamics. I know the reason – you’ve been looking for solution to your stress in the wrong place.
It’s time to take a new path
I take the current thinking about stress and shift it in a completely new direction. Using research in the field of neuroscience, nervous system regulation along with introspective learning, I help you understand the mechanics of the human mind – and show you how to use this incredible instrument to its full potential to enable you to navigate challenges in a new and effective way.
From stress to success
It was through my own experience of burnout that I discovered that stress doesn’t come from outside, from external triggers, but is created within -inside my own mind. It was a lightbulb moment that completely changed my understanding of stress. From then on, I was capable to enjoy more calm and better wellbeing. I was able to face what life threw at me with resilience, creativity and confidence. My life started to change with less effort and more ease. I now teach people about the mind so that they can reach their full potential and live happy, healthy and fulfilling lives.
My Path of Learning & Transformation
I’ve always been fascinated by the human condition - ability to change, rise above the circumstances and create something new.
Growing up, I watched my dad struggle with alcohol and saw the ripples it created in our family system. This experience shaped me deeply — and it ignited a lifelong passion to study psychology, healing, and what helps us return home to ourselves.
Today, I am a coach, speaker and an author of an upcoming book Turn Your Stress Into Success - without adding to your to do list. I have over 15 years’ experience in the private and public sector as a health strategist, organisational wellbeing consultant. I’ve worked with hundreds of individuals, teams and organisations to turn their stress into success.

Ask Dorothy
My learning began with academic foundations:
- Bachelor’s in Psychology and Master’s Degrees in Developmental Psychology in Poland
- Training in Bioenergetics, Gestalt and Jungian approaches – a period of curiosity that gave me pathways for my own healing.
When I moved to the UK, I continued with:
- Nutritional Therapy Diploma (BCNH)
- Master’s Degree in Public Health (London)
I kept seeking practices that expanded my awareness:
- Transcendental Meditation Programme
- Mindfulness Training with Tara Brach
- Landmark Forum
And then I stepped into the world that would become my life’s work:
- Co-Active Coach Training (CTI)
- Generative Coaching with Stephen Gilligan
- The Work with Byron Katie
- Steve Chandler’s Coaching Prosperity School
- AJC Coaching Career School – in 2022 & 2023
- Navigating Your Nervous System & You Make Sense with Sarah Baldwin
- Playing Big – Women’s Leadership Programme with Tara Mohr
- Interference in Action - Measuring and Mastering Coaching Efficacy with Haesun Moon
Each training has left an imprint.
Each teacher has opened another door.
And through it all, one thing remains constant:
I am committed to my own development, to mastery of this craft, and to creating spaces where people feel safe, seen and free to transform.Â
I now live in an old mill in the countryside Suffolk UK with my husband Paul and our Labrador, Sky — our four-legged baby who fills our days with joy.
I'd love to connect!Success & Well-being
