""The sessions I took part in with Karen were of great benefit to both my mood at the time and managing myself better in the future. They gave me an insight into ways of combatting my negative thoughts and methods of keeping them at bay through practical, realistic solutions."

" You have helped me to think of myself and life in general differently and to try and find positives in every situation. Obviously this is going to take time but I shall persevere with it and feel confident that it will be of great help. I feel very much that you have given me the tools and now it is up to me to put them to use. So thanks again, you’re a very gifted and understanding person. "

"NLP workshop -although I knew a little about NLP this workshop has helped me put it into context of my workplace; particularly as we do ecounter aggression and challenging behaviour."

"NLP workshop - the exercises broke the day up and made it more fun and helped to understand by experience rather than being talked to. I have definately learnt new skills that I can apply to everyday both at home and work."
"Being mentored by Karen has been a really enjoyable experience. She has kept me focused, made useful suggestions, helped me to open up my thinking in various areas and made sure I’m aware of the progress I’ve made. And she’s done all this with a light touch. I would definitely recommend working with her. Beyond this, just having access to someone who can focus dispassionately on what I’m doing has been of enormous benefit. "

"Re NLP workshop - Absolutely brilliant, thank you Karen. I really enjoyed the whole day. Very confident and engaging tutor, entertaining and inspiring. It was great to use my new skills with other people who are interested in NLP."

"I have benefited from the time I have spent with Karen. It has been useful to take time out and to get a clearer view on how I do things and see what my limiting patterns and beliefs are. Karen is supportive and focused. I think I would probably have got more out of the sessions if I could have come every week! "

" Prior to coaching I felt stuck and unable to make decisions but after 4 coaching sessions I now feel a lot happier in myself and have far more energy. I specifically found exploring underlying values of great sense to me. I have now been able to start making decisions again and focus a bit more on my needs. H Graham, Barnstaple"
"I have spent more time today asking myself what I would like to be/do etc than any other period in my life before. Thank you"

"I felt nervous to begin with as I didn know what to expect. Karen held the space well (in the workshop)and made us feel comfortable and at ease. I enjoyed the whole workshop and found out more about myself.... I would definitely do another of Karens workshops. "
K atrina, N Devon
"Very, very knowledgeable about subject, felt very safe and able to be open and honest.... helped me to be more self-aware"

"I would like to say thank you for helping me see the way forward in my career, there were a few things that I knew I needed to do but I kept putting obstacles in the way and was too afraid to make a change. Karen helped me to think about my thoughts differently. Karen helped me to gain confidence which in turn showed me that I can make changes which I have been stuck in for years. I feel so much more positive than I have for years and I have achieved all the things that I set out to do."
S. Reed Holistic Therapist
"Very positive and a great deal fitted into a fairly short time. Like the points to take away such as "anchors" "affirmatons" etc - something to get hold of. Much enjoyed - a lower handicap may be beckoning. "

"I thought your presentation was excellent. I know that at times I almost talk myself out of playing a good game of golf. Today I played with a much more positive attitude ie. dismissing the bad shots and being pleased with the good ones. Thank you, Karen "
D Dalton (golfer)
"I found this workshop very interesting. I had initially thought that it would be a few hours about "reflecting" on areas of my life to become better balanced. However, I was pleased to find out that it was a few beneficial hours focusing on what is already good. I see I actually have a well balanced life, but will be making some personal goals. I found the anxiety spiral very useful, I can relate totally to this and will carry the idea of breaking this up and feeling less stressed."

"I found this to be a really interesting talk, and will take much on to the golf course with me!"

"When I came to Karen for coaching I was very unhappy in my current employment. I was training in my free time with a view to becoming self-employed however the disatisfaction with my job was draining my energy, sapping my motivation and confidence and affecting my health. I was really stuck, feeling that I would never have the energy to get my new business off the ground. One coaching session with Karen provided a way forward. With skilful questioning and challenging Karen was able to guide me to the solution that an interim job would free me of this negativity. Over the following weeks I received support with my new business plans, became much more motivated, have a new job, joined Pilates classes and now have more energy to focus on my future business.

"I cannot thank Karen enough for being my sounding board and listening with care and skill to my problems, helping me make sense of it all. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is unsure of which way to turn. "
