"My mentor is truly amazing!! She sees things so differently and helped me understand where my trauma came from. She puts me at ease and I always come off the call feeling more positive about things. Thank you so much! I am going to buy my husband a block of sessions now to help with his timeline as a Christmas present as I really want him to experience the amazing support I have had."

“I was very very anxious about getting on a plane. Through this programme, not only did I get on the plane, but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The fact I had homework each week and had to give feedback made me accountable. It was a very structured process. A really good programme, which I was able to access quickly when I needed the help."

"On the very first call, I was really struggling and I was apprehensive. My mentor reassured me that this was absolutely the solution for me and that it would definitely work. This filled me with so much confidence and belief, I felt so much more hope than I had ever felt about reducing my fears and anxiety. Talking to my mentor each week was something I looked forward to and each session had useful materials. The most beneficial part for me was looking back on my timeline and switching my perspective on the 'bad' events to looking at them from a more positive position. It was truly ground breaking for me.This course of sessions provided such a huge relief for me after over 35 years of battling with my phobia. I looked forward to my weekly sessions with my mentor and I genuinely felt a mutual understanding from her, it was like making a new best friend, she was such a joy to see each week and she took on board everything I said and then built me up to feel on top of the world, even though she saw me at my absolute worst, she had me smiling every time. My life has changed for the better, I have confidence, motivation, positivity and gratitude running through me and it's all thanks to this wonderful organisation and, specifically, my mentor
