"Clare has helped me to understand why my preteen reacts in certain ways and given me practical tasks and ways of thinking and speaking to help support each other through the ever changing ‘teen’ times" "I have learnt so many new strategies which I have tried and plan to try, to help my son’s emotional development"
I can't thank Clare enough for her incredible support and guidance over the last 6 months, enabling me in turn to support my teenager. It is obvious how much Clare cares about the young people she supports Clare makes you feel at ease from the very first contact. She has an amazing skill which enables her to see exactly how best she can support you as an individual. Without support from Clare, I am in no doubt that I wouldn't have had the capacity to care and advocate for my teenager. I came away from my sessions with Clare having greater confidence in my decisions, validation that I knew my teenager very well a thus successfully advocating for them.
"Clare has an amazing ability to understand her clients and she offers incredible support. She is helping my teenage daughter with what were overwhelming bouts of anxiety and to see her confidence and smile return has been an absolute joy. I would not hesitate to recommend Clare to anyone who needs a helping hand through a difficult time."
"I find the teen years very challenging at times but your course has reminded me my kids aren't 'a nightmare' at times, they are just teenagers and the best way to help them and parent them is to understand them! Thank you Clare, such a great course x"
"Clare was brilliant when it came to helping my son ease his needle phobia, which had been building up over time. Her kind nature & understanding approach were invaluable in giving him the techniques to deal with his fear. It also gave him the inner confidence that will no doubt help him deal with many other anxieties he may face navigating his teenage years. I cannot recommend Clare enough."
"Before I went to see Clare I got very anxious about daily life and the things I did on a day to day basis. As soon as I started my sessions with Clare I felt like I was in a very comfortable and safe place and like I could share anything about my thoughts and what I was worried about. The techniques I was taught really helped me from the start with sleeping better all the way to feeling more confident about myself. So as a whole seeing Clare has had a very positive outcome for me and I couldn’t thank her enough for how much she has helped me."
"I came to Clare after my mum had suggested it to me due to my severe anxiety because it was something different to who I’d previously been seeing. Clare never made me talk about my past unless I wanted to as that can have a negative effect which was really positive - I took part in the creating calm sessions so we would talk about how I’ve been and speak about any problems I’ve been having; we would dissect the issue and use techniques about the primitive brain and the frontal brain which made a difference quite quickly. Through this I stopped asking all the what ifs and I started dissecting the issues myself.
...I started attending all my lessons at school and branching out more and everybody could see a change in not only my behaviour, but my mood as a whole. I had never been a fan of relaxation until I met Clare as she made me feel comfortable and safe when doing it- I never felt like I was being judged once which was a major change to how I was. "
"I found Clare's support invaluable during a recent bout of anxiety-induced panic attacks. Her knowledge, understanding and personal approach really helped me to understand my condition better and process what was happening, I will always be very grateful that we worked together and know that I am a stronger, more calm person for it."
"I have been seeing Clare for over a year now as I first contacted her to help with some issues I had around emotional eating. She has helped me overcome that original issue and has definitely made me more grounded in other areas. She has also helped my son who is 11 on several occasions and I would highly recommend her working with older children and teenagers. Clare has an incredible wealth of knowledge in behavioural psychology and can explain things in a simple way, matching easy to use coping strategies to support any issues that I have. Her hypnotherapy sessions at the end of our consultation are so relaxing and grounding and I feel a renewed sense of calm every time I have them and take that serenity with me after each session. I now see her every 6 weeks and each time we identify other coping strategies that I can take with me to use in many situations and I can honestly say I am a much relaxed person since consulting with Clare."
"I really can't speak highly enough of Clare and the treatment I received for anxiety last year. In just six weeks, I saw a transformation in myself. Clare says how important it is to work with someone you have a rapport with and I totally agree. At all times I felt comfortable, and like I completely trusted her and the process. This woman can change your life. I wholeheartedly recommend you let her try!"
