Hello
I attended Lisa’s course/workshop last weekend. I’ve followed The Calm Charm for sometime now, and use my key ring when I feel the going is getting tough and regularly recommend the key rings to others.
Lisa’s course focused on anxiety, panic attacks and coping strategies, all of which are brilliant and I will be be putting into practice.
The course ran at a good pace, the content was clear, the workbook is easy to follow with space to make notes and activities to complete if you want to.
Lisa is open and honest about her own journey which eases anyone on the course and makes you feel comfortable, and her humour (which is at my own level) made the course fun. Poor mental health isn’t easy, but this course helps coping with it a bit lighter.
Thank you Lisa, I will be recommending not only your beautiful charms, your course as well. - Claire Rosling

To say I am still buzzing about Wednesday's session is an understatement.
Your session was absolutely fantastic. You deliver the session with a brilliant mix of honesty, humour and an approach which is both encouraging and non-judgmental. This topic can be a heavy one and when I have attended sessions about the same topic in the past, it has always felt that way. However, with your session, you engaged beautifully and were able to explain everything with ease and clarity
Afterwards, I was able to speak with our YP (young people) and everyone really grasped the session and not only understand the content - but they also understood how this can help them moving forward at Natwest Bank. To have our YP open up the way they did, during the session, was a testament to how you ran it. The positive feedback was overwhelming.
Finally, it was a beautiful touch to provide us with little Charm sets at the end. It will definitely allow our YP to remember your teachings, as well as the great afternoon we all shared!! - Chris Oliver, LTSB Programme Manager - Natwest CC.

Issues with mental health cause problems for many individuals and businesses and we recognised that we have team members who are affected by this in many ways and as an organisation we have a duty of care to support our employees.

Some people chose to attend because they suffered personally, others wanted to attend to learn how to support family and friends and some purely to gain more knowledge of the subject.

The evaluation carried out following the training sessions showed that everyone took away useful information and tips to manage their own symptoms and know what to look for in others and ways to support them.

We have also seen a vast reduction in absence linked to mental health issues. - Anne Nolan, ESP Play and Quest Electrical

I booked Lisa to deliver her training session to all school staff members, to support their understanding of mental health and well-being. I found that Lisa's perceptive and personable approach ensured that all she met felt at ease. Sessions were both informative and useful, a great mix of theory and application, making them fully accessible and pertinent to all. Lisa's relatable approach enabled participants to feel relaxed and comfortable to share, allowing them to get the most out of the training sessions.

The positive feedback received from staff since, has been absolutely fantastic -all have found the sessions beneficial, in particular, strategies for managing stress and anxiety.

Through the sharing of her own knowledge and experience, Lisa brings an insightful perspective and I highly recommend her sessions to other schools, without hesitation. - Dawn Lindley, Head Teacher.

I met Lisa when she visited the school that I work in to deliver sessions to staff members. Every single person that I spoke to who had been in one of her sessions said how fantastic she was. I hadn't yet been in a session but asked if Lisa could visit me at home to speak with one of my children who was at the time struggling with anxiety and panic attacks. Lisa came to my house and spoke with my son for an hour and a half. She listened without judging and my son said how at ease he felt with her (he is 19 years old). Lisa explained to my son why he was feeling like he was and gave him some strategies which he started to implement immediately. Within a matter of days and using the strategies Lisa had suggested, my son started to feel a little better each day. After a few months I now feel I have my happy son back. I also suffer with OCD and spoke with Lisa - she was absolutely amazing at explaining how our brains work and why I feel the way I do. I absolutely without hesitation highly recommend Lisa - she is truly a special person with the biggest heart who genuinely understands how people feel and wants to help them feel better. - Tracy Bolton
