I had a fear of speaking in public but had to do a speech for my daughter’s wedding, which had to last at least 5 minutes. I felt desperate.
Then I came across Yvonne’s website Stop being Stuck. It appealed as that is how I felt.
Yvonne was very friendly and puts you at ease. I found our sessions to be extremely useful and informative. Afterwards I felt much calmer and was able to sleep without worrying.
I did my speech, no problem. I feel the techniques I learnt will also be a great aid to me in the future.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Yvonne to anyone who needs help like I did.

I found Yvonne to be extremely professional, helpful and friendly in her process. I have no hesitation in recommending Yvonne. I was very pleased with the help she provided.

“Yvonne is simply incredible! I had a long-standing phobia after being attacked 25 years-ago, and it was preventing me from wearing a brace. My teeth have moved a little in recent years and as a speaker and trainer who’s often on stage or being filmed I was getting increasingly self-conscious. I had one session with Yvonne and the phobia was gone – she’s quite literally given me my smile back 🙂 She’s incredibly kind, super-professional, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

“Yvonne is an excellent therapist. I had to deal with anxiety and stress when starting my new job. Throughout my sessions with her, she not just helped me overcome these on my first day but also taught me how to deal if this happens again. Highly recommend Yvonne for her approach and professionalism.”

“I found my fear of flying sessions with Yvonne extremely helpful. She was very friendly and approachable and the pre-session questionnaire meant we could get straight into things during our first session. The first session was great, I couldn’t believe afterwards how much better I felt about my upcoming holiday, and the flight was so much less stressful than usual. My second session was after a pretty bumpy flight home, which had knocked me a bit. But again after the session I felt so much better and a lot more positive about flying again. Yvonne also taught me some techniques to use in the future if needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Yvonne if you have a phobia you want some help with.”

“Yvonne was accommodating with timings for sessions and prompt in all communications. The sessions were of just the right length and were not rushed or awkward in any way. I found it to be a real eye opener in techniques and Yvonne patiently and calmly talked me through each one and gave me helpful examples when I didn’t quite understand what to do or what to imagine. I found the tapping very helpful and peripheral vision to trigger the parasympathetic nervous system; when Yvonne confidently said “you can’t be anxious when doing this!” it was absolutely true and I now use this technique often. It was also good to feel like I was being taught tools to help myself, permanently, in the future rather than having traditional “therapy” and being dependent on the therapist for support. Yvonne teaches and promotes self-help from the very start. I would thoroughly recommend Yvonne to anyone suffering anxiety, a fear of facing situations, wanting to shift to a more positive mindset and regain control rather than feeling like life controls them. I would be very happy to work with her again in the future.”

“I went to Yvonne as I was having and have had issues with self confidence. Yvonne was very friendly and put me at ease straight away. The sessions were very informal, relaxed and Yvonne walked me through the process. I had two sessions, both of which I found really useful as they have given me tools to use going forward. Since the sessions I feel lighter and less self conscious. I would highly recommend.”

“I cannot recommend Yvonne enough! Yvonne was very incisive in identifying the issues of my phobias. She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. My sessions with her have not only helped me gain an understanding of my habits and patterns but also given me the tools to deal and be in control of my feelings. I never believed I would be able to take a walk in the park without feeling anxiety and fear! It really has changed my life, and I truly mean this. My only regret is that I hadn’t found her sooner. Thank you so much.”
