Creative Coaching
I’m Gavin Ricketts, a trained and experienced Coach based in East London and Kent. I’ve called my practice Clearly Creative Space, as that’s what I offer my clients, who mainly work in the creative industries. Their coaching sessions with me give them time to think clearly and creatively about their work.
When you work with me you can explore your ideas on your own, or with your team. I’ll guide your thought processes using creative coaching techniques so you find your own solutions to your challenges.
You’ll learn techniques and tools to help you structure your thinking and shape your ideas right there in the session, that you can then use when you’re back in your organisation.
In 90 minutes, you won’t necessarily have all the answers, but you will have action points to get you closer to them.
Sounds easy? Well, no, it’s not. It’s hard work. A lot of very tricky thinking.
The end result? Deeply satisfying and impactful change.
What can you do in the Space?
Time spent with a creative coach is always about focusing on what change you want to bring about, even if that means confronting issues you find tough or are even avoiding. Nothing said in the session goes any further. And the agenda is totally set by you, not me. These are the thing my clients spend doing.

Clearly Creative Space allows you to work on your business with confidence, in confidence. You can voice your greatest hopes, say aloud your worst fears, and work out how to navigate towards your chosen goals.

Build a Relationship
As I your coach I take time to listen and understand in a non-judgemental way. I help you clarify you goals.
Explore Ideas
Together you work through your ideas, what resources you have and what's stopping you achieving them.
Take Action
Together we set your target list of actions to take that will move you towards your goals.
Review, Refine, Refresh
We look back at what you've achieved, what's working (and what's not). We then look at how we can reset your course.
Who uses Clearly Creative Space?
I’ve worked with individuals in a range of creative industries, from television producers to photographers to events organisers. Each has had their individual challenges, and yet each has shared similar blocks to overcome.
