GEMMA STONE
Coach, Author, Speaker, Founder
Learning how to make my mind my strongest ally and my brain my greatest asset has genuinely, drastically, and beautifully changed my life … so I became obsessed with helping others to the same.
With a few degrees in psychology, fifteen years as a (formerly) registered psychologist, a dozen post-graduate training in therapeutic modalities, I made it my mission to figure out how to help people, just like you, build mental strengths and overcome mental struggles.
Once upon a time, my university students called me professor. I’ve been called the therapist’s therapist or shrink for entrepreneurs. Organizations have me on-call to deliver psychology-based keynotes and workshops.
One of my favorite things to do is to create customized 1:1 coaching programs to support big-hearted people achieve remarkable results in their personal and professional lives.

WORDS
HONOUR AND RESPECT
“Gemma is the real deal. Her presentation is polished. Her marketing is good. But that’s not what counts in a coach. It’s in the dozens of small moments in interactions I’ve seen her in. Her capacity to listen. The way she doesn’t ‘pull rank’ on people. Her genuine openness and caring for people. The way she helps even bristly people feel at ease. Her graciousness. It’s hard to put my finger on it – which is a good thing. I think that’s how you know someone’s genuine – you can’t find any one particular thing – you just feel it.When I arrived at Gemma’s office I saw her bookshelf – evidence of someone who not only went to a few courses but who has spent a lifetime passionately pursuing different tools and perspectives on how to support people in making changes in their life. And I was struck by the beauty of it and the care put into it. What a gift to have someone care about their space that much. Evidence of her care for herself but also her care of her clients. Maybe that’s a part of it – I get this wonderful sense of how much Gemma loves, honours and respects herself. And that inspires me. How could one lead people to a place they’d not been yet. What lucky clients she has. ”
LET’S WORK TOGETHER
HOW
the STORY
BEGINS
I started life with trauma and troubles, which parlayed into multiple mental health diagnoses. Once I found my own way out of suffering and into a life that feels alive and aligned, I began helping others to do the same.
After fifteen years working as a registered psychologist, helping people use the power of psychology to heal the past, love the present, and light up the future I decide to expand my practice into speaking, writing, coaching, teaching online and facilitating transformational travel experiences.
As a life + leadership coach and seasoned psychology expert, my clients tell me that I move with ease from ally to challenger to guide to aha-finder.
How do I pull that off?
My superpower is helping clients tap into conscious, subconscious, and unconscious levels of the mind – where real and long lasting change happens.
From there, it becomes much easier to step into aligned action and innovative inspiration.
WHAT I STAND FOR

FUN FACTS
Birth Place?
It’s a fun story that begins on an island, leads into an emergency ferry, and ends with my mom snatching me out of the nursery and discharging herself from the hospital … in Powell River, on the Sunshine Coast, in Canada.
Favorite Things?
There’s nothing like a well-designed playlist to get me grooving. Everywhere I go, you’ll find organic dark chocolate nearby. Give me a rose petal bubble bath and a Voluspa candle and I’ll be glowing.
Astrology?
Sun in Aries. Moon in Taurus. Apparently, my chart looks a lot like Anthony Bourdain’s.
Perhaps, since I’m a psychology expert, it would be appropriate to lead with my legit (and not so legit)
