Testimonials

I was at a point in my life when I did not recognise myself anymore. I had little or no motivation. I felt sad or angry most of the time and I did not consider these feeling, I just knew that I wasn’t ‘me’ anymore. I did not really consider my past life experiences and how they might still be having a negative impact on me. Hannah showed compassion and was extremely supportive throughout my journey. Hannah did challenge my thoughts and feeling when appropriate.

I really did learn to appreciate and understand this. I also enjoyed when I could look back and see the positive changes that had made. I still find it unbelievable that I had been struggling for quite a long time. Hannah also helped me to also challenge my thoughts, feelings and beliefs and helped me to talk to myself in a more compassionate way.

I cannot thank Hannah enough for her support throughout my therapy. Hannah comes highly recommended. A life saver in my eyes. I really was struggling with ‘happiness’ before meeting Hannah and having therapy. I do still have moments when I need to ‘check in’ with myself and use some of the techniques that I have learnt but I would not have done this before. I have learnt that this therapy was one of the kindest things that I could have done for myself and for that I thank Hannah.

I sought Hannah’s help after struggling with anxiety and depression for several years. I was in a high-pressure corporate role and found my excessively driven personality and lack of compassion for myself and others was starting to take its toll. My relationships with friends, family and colleagues were suffering and my anxiety levels were sky-high. Hannah spent time really understanding me, my experiences and how my issues had evolved. Taking the first step to therapy was really difficult but she quickly put me at ease which made me feel very comfortable talking about how I felt and my experiences without ever feeling judged. Throughout the process I learnt so much about myself and how to manage my anxiety and low mood. Hannah helped me to understand why I was struggling so much and I’m now able to recognise thoughts and situations which might trigger those feelings and address them. If you are experiencing your own challenges, I would wholeheartedly recommend Hannah.

Hannah and I worked well together.  A therapeutic connection between Clinician and Client enhances the experience for both parties.  The compassion based focus worked well for me.  Working with an experienced Psychologist with life experience was beneficial.  The online appointments were accessible, convenient and an incredible time saver.

Hannah has supported me through one of the most difficult periods of my life & helped me recognise how my previous experiences had left me feeling anxious and traumatised and we’re still having an impact on me.

She is so warm, friendly and welcoming and completely put me at ease from the 1st session. She approaches each session with knowledge & compassion and validation of my struggles. She has supported me to be more compassionate to myself, by challenging my thinking/perspective when needed and has equipped me with tools to move forward and maintain a healthy balance.

I’m so glad to have found Hannah. She really has made a positive impact on my health/in my life & I don’t think I would be in the place I am Today without her input and support.

Online therapy worked very well for me. It was convenient and stress free. It removed any anxiety I would usually experience when driving to an appointment and meant I could relax and participate better during my session.

The therapy focused on helping me understand how my past experiences and relationships have shaped me and how this ultimately led to my having chronic fatigue. Hannah gave me techniques to help calm my nervous system and showed me how to improve my relationship with myself by responding in a more compassionate manner.

It’s about being given an extra set of tools. To learn to congratulate yourself, to learn to give yourself time without feeling guilty, to celebrate you warts and all! It’s about empowering yourself. I could not have stumbled across this class at a better time. I didn’t realise how much I had equipped my mindset until I started my new journey to becoming a fitness instructor.

I had a lot of challenging moments and my old self would have beaten myself up when I was learning choreography and I couldn’t quite get it I could have thrown the towel in, quit and thought what’s the use, I’m never going to do it. But I didn’t. Instead I talked to myself like I would to my children or to a friend. I gave myself a pat on the back, I focussed on the good and what went right instead of focussing on what went wrong. I gave myself some love and it’s not always easy to do that.

I am naturally a positive person but I didn’t realise until I went on this course just how much of a hard time I had been giving myself. I don’t now. I am able to give myself some slack and show some compassion – just like what you would encourage if you were speaking to someone else. This course is amazing and these tools that you unearth are invaluable and they apply to everyone. You need to do this course. It is worth every penny. I have not stopped preaching about Hannah’s course since I did it, it’s amazing. You’ll want to spread the word too once you’ve done it.

For anyone who has ever struggled with the challenges life throws at us, felt unbalanced, overwhelmed and would like to learn how to live their life with a sense of direction based on their own values and beliefs, to find the tools to stop struggling or trying to control the difficulties in their life (no matter what they are) and start accepting a meaningful way forward with practical help that can be woven into your daily life then look no further, this maybe the right path for you.

Join Hannah’s workshop; a small group of like minded people, with very different life experiences brought together in this warm and sensitive workshop. You will be expertly guided by Hannah through the foundations of ACT Therapy, helping you move forward in the right direction hopefully finding the experience and benefits as helpful as I have. Thank you Hannah and everyone else who was part of this Workshop.

Originally I was slightly sceptical on the idea of having sessions to improve mental welfare. I believed it would not help me whatsoever and i did not believe in the benefits. After the course my opinion has completely changed and I have seen the direct positive benefits in both my work and personal life.

Content was detailed without being boring. Controlled well in that we were allowed to really take part but when people went off topic it was brought back quickly. Really well delivered. The team got a lot from this. I really did like the way the team gelled together.

I found this course very useful! Some great techniques and tools. The “safe space” of the group setting was great, I felt like I could be open and honest even when I’d not achieved the desired outcomes, there was no judgement, just support and understanding.
