I contacted Yvonne about my anxiety – and fear of failure – at being in the spotlight and speaking at a large public event. I felt an immediate connection with Yvonne during the free consultation, when she quickly grasped my concerns and clearly explained various methods of tackling them. She is approachable, personable, empathic, insightful, patient and very professional. On a practical basis it’s really convenient to have online sessions, and Yvonne is flexible about appointments and timings. The advance questionnaire is also hugely helpful in preparing for the first session. I was amazed at how much I achieved in just two sessions. It was like ‘flicking a switch’ and changing my mindset from being negative and self-critical to being calm and confident, which is how I felt on the day. She also equipped me with a range of effective stress-busting tools and relaxation techniques that I can use in the future. The name Stop Being Stuck says it all, and I would highly recommend Yvonne.

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.”
