About Natalia Arnaiz – Stress Management Coach in Ireland
I’m Natalia Arnaiz, a stress management coach helping professionals and business owners in Ireland who find it hard to switch off, feel overwhelmed or struggle to make time for themselves.
I’ve been working as a coach since 2021, and I’ve been supporting people with stress through Reiki since 2010. My six-week Stress Management Programme brings the two together: personalised one-to-one coaching and distance Reiki, all online, so you can join from anywhere in Ireland.
My Story
Do you find yourself counting down the days, or even hours, until Friday? If so, I can completely relate.
I spent more than ten years working as a chemical engineer and, to be completely honest with you, it was never a good fit. I had no idea what I wanted to do at the time, so I chose my career based on job opportunities. I didn’t enjoy studying it or working in my roles.
I grew up in a small village in Burgos, Spain, with a farming background. It taught me the value of hard work, resilience and the importance of loving what you do, lessons I carry with me to this day.
In 2006 I moved to Ireland, a country I love and now proudly call home. On the surface I had a good life, but something was missing. I longed for a sense of purpose, a vocation and not just a job.
I couldn’t have changed my situation without the help of my own coach, who brought a fresh perspective and helped me figure out my next steps. I soon realised that my driving force is helping people enjoy their lives more.
I began practising Reiki in 2010, and in 2021 I became a coach. Together, they completely changed my life and the way I experience the world. Now I help people like you manage stress, find balance and create a life that feels more like your own.
How I became a stress management coach
For more than a decade, many of the people who came to me for Reiki were dealing with stress: long hours, pressure at work, running a business and never quite switching off. I saw first-hand how prolonged stress can affect every area of life, from work and decision-making to relationships, sleep and energy.
When I started coaching in 2021, I worked with people who felt stuck in the wrong career. Again and again, stress was part of the picture. That’s what led me to create my Stress Management Programme, which is now the focus of my work.
Today I work entirely online with professionals and business owners across Ireland. You don’t need to travel anywhere, and sessions fit around your working week.
My six-week stress management programme
The programme runs over six weeks, with one online session a week. Each one-hour session combines 20 minutes of distance Reiki with 40 minutes of personalised one-to-one coaching.
Together we look at what is driving your stress, from workload and boundaries to competing priorities and the expectations you place on yourself. Then we build practical strategies that fit your life, so you can switch off and create a healthier work-life balance.
There are three versions of the programme:
- Stress management for professionals, if you work for an organisation and find it hard to leave work at work
- Stress management for business owners, if you run your own business and there’s always one more thing to do
- Corporate wellness programme, for employers who want to support their teams
My approach to stress management coaching
I believe meaningful change starts with understanding yourself. That’s why my coaching is always personal: there is no one-size-fits-all solution.
My background as a chemical engineer means I naturally bring a practical and analytical perspective to my coaching. My experience as a coach since 2021, and as a Reiki practitioner since 2010, has taught me to look beyond what is happening on the surface.
Depending on what you need, I’ll ask the right questions to help you find your own answers, or give you practical tools and strategies to make changes that last. The distance Reiki part of each session is time to slow down and pause. I don’t present Reiki as a treatment for anything, and coaching is never a substitute for medical or mental health care.
Reiki Master & Teacher
I’ve practised Reiki since 2010, and I’m a Reiki Master & Teacher. Many of my clients find a Reiki session deeply relaxing, a rare chance to stop and switch off. If you’ve never tried it, I recommend experiencing it at least once, especially if you’re sceptical. Some of my clients have enjoyed it so much that they went on to train in Reiki with me.
Alongside the programme, I also offer single distance Reiki sessions.
Career Change Coach
My own experience of feeling trapped in the wrong career became one of my greatest strengths as a coach. If you feel stuck or unfulfilled at work, my career change coaching programme helps you uncover what really lights you up, so you can move towards a carrer that feels meaningful and right for you.
If stress has started to feel like your normal, you don’t have to work it out on your own.
Book a free 15-minute discovery call on Zoom. We’ll talk about what’s going on for you, and you can ask me anything about the programme. There’s no pressure and no commitment, just a chance to see whether working together feels right for you.
