"I attended my first session with Diane and within half on hour the problem behind my anxiety, which had festered for years, was discovered and resolved. Then through the two following sessions we addressed how I could move forward from the clean slate I had been given. I can only state that my sessions with Diane have been truly life changing." Business Owner, Derbyshire "Diane's style is professional but friendly and I instantly clicked with her and felt at ease from the first session. She has a great gift in being able to understand an issue and in framing it in such a way as to make you realise you can and will overcome it." Freelance Consultant, Derbyshire "Diane was recommended to me and from our first chat on the phone, she inspired my confidence in her ability to help. During our sessions, I felt very comfortable in talking openly to her and she was able to pick up on the key issues to address. She used the Emotional Freedom Technique and I was initially a bit sceptical about how it could work but it does! I started to feel better straight away and after a couple of sessions received several unsolicited comments about how well I looked and seemed more confident. These were from people who did not know I was seeing a therapist. Working with Diane has enabled me to achieve my goal which was to get over my disproportionate emotional attachment to my ex partner, but the benefits have also impacted all areas of my life. I now feel happy, positive and content. Diane is perceptive, articulate and professional and I absolutely recommend her services." Civil Servent, South Yorkshire "Working with Diane was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I never thought I would need this type of help in my life but am incredibly pleased with myself for making the phone call to Diane to arrange the sessions. The sessions were incredibly helpful and had a real positive effect. To be able to talk over my feelings with somebody as understanding and reassuring as Diane made me feel like things could be overcome. From suffering from real anxiety and not wanting to spend time alone, suffering loss of appetite causing weight loss, and lack of sleep I am now back to full strength, enjoying my life to the full again. I have a great appetite again and the weight is piling back on. My fitness is back and I am enjoying the gym again and lots of walking and playing squash with my husband. All in all I am positive this is all down to the help of Diane and also my determination to get myself back to my great and happy life! A massive thanks, Diane, and I fully recommend you to anyone who needs your helps." Housewife, Derbyshire "Incredibly helpful and effective. Diane conveyed understanding and the techniques she used cured the problems I was experiencing. I now have the confidence to continue in my new job without worry." Senior Sales Consultant, Derbyshire "Diane has a very relaxing and down to earth nature, and through her experience and innate talent creates the ideal environment through which she can best utilise those skills. I found the techniques she employed began working before the first session was even over. Despite my initial misgivings I find I cannot help but marvel at the results, and would certainly recommend Diane's services to any that was considering seeking help." Writer, Nottinghamshire "The time I have spent on a short one to one course with Diane has been an incredibly positive and effective experience for me. I found the sessions informative, enlightening and productive. I cannot recommend her highly enough." Business Owner, Cheshire
