Using Psychological Fitness to navigate a pressure filled world.

“I have gotten a huge amount out of coaching with Vanessa. As a time-poor leader who wants to be brilliant, effective and fair, the risk is I will achieve none of those by spreading myself too thin. Vanessa has helped me to think clearly and prioritise. I have enjoyed having space to think out loud and relished being challenged. Every minute of our sessions has helped to give me clarity.”

“Vanessa's humorous and no-nonsense approach meant I looked forward to each session and I came away feeling empowered and optimistic that I could make marginal gains which would make a genuine difference. Whilst having considerable experience of dealing with people with PTSD, at no time did my lesser challenges feel belittled.  The "getting to know you" sessions did not feel intrusive or awkward, and within 3 sessions we were discussing a practical toolkit of ways to regain control without having to take drastic steps."

“Your course and materials, videos and tool pack, are of such immense value to me and sparked my enthusiasm to explore beyond the materials provided.  Your work is fantastic, and I enjoy the way you present information in such a clear and relatable way.  I describe you to my family as young, dynamic and engaging.   Your work helps to normalise a wide range of emotions people experience and provides sound clinical explanations (science) and practical tools, such as 7-11 or 3 Good Things, which empower them to achieve greater psychological fitness.  The Tool Pack is a great way to track emotions and develop great psychological fitness. I see evidence of my own family gaining benefit from what you do, my husband, grand-daughter and daughter. This approach has changed the way I am able to support her, providing a much stronger base for both of us to lean on. ”

"Dr Vanessa has a skill at taking a complex topic and making it easy to understand, she helps others to make sense of things before moving to action and ensures every session has practical tips that are easy to action.  Working with Dr Vanessa is like having an extension to our team, spending time understanding the organisation and adapting content and delivery where needed to meet the needs of our colleagues means we have had consistently great feedback over the 3 years we have worked together."
