Reviews

I love hearing how people are doing after working with me.  Please do keep in touch and let me know. 

As I work in both one-to-one coaching/therapy, and with groups, you’ll see a number of reviews from both areas, including training to support people too.   

(If you want to speak directly to any of the people who have kindly given references, please ask me and I’ll ask to arrange a conversation with them, subject to GDPR and confidentiality, of course)

AMAZING!!!
I have used other therapists to help me overcome my fear of falling but with limited success. However, Sue has an incredible technique and calmly talked me through each stage, so that I felt wholly immersed in the session with complete trust in her skills.
I experienced a great sense of “release” afterwards in removing a burden which had been preventing me from moving forward.

NLP, coaching and development

The development and coaching that Sue has provided has been a breath of fresh air and extremely supportive to our employees and our ongoing well-being programme.
Coaching can be challenging and very rewarding and the employees that Sue has worked with have engaged, participated fully in the sessions and shown personal growth and motivation since.
Sue has supported the coaching with a range of techniques from the field of NLP, and this has made such a difference to the deeper impact it has made. I would recommend Sue as a coach, facilitator and trainer as her personable approach engages and relaxed people who are very happy to work with her.

Hypnotherapy for Needle Phobia

I have had a severe needle phobia for over seven years and haven’t had any sort of injection or vaccine in longer than that.

The thought of having a jab terrified me so much so that I would faint at the sight of a needle.

However, the pandemic forced me to try to resolve this – so I went to Sue. I had four sessions of hypnotherapy with Sue, which she tailored to my specific phobia.

It was all such a positive experience, and Sue could not have been more kind, flexible, understanding or willing to help.

After only these four sessions I was able to have my first vaccine, and through the techniques Sue taught me was able to remain so calm that I wasn’t at all scared – something I never thought I would be able to say.

I genuinely believe that if Sue can help me, she can help anyone overcome any fear. I am beyond grateful and cannot recommend her services highly enough.

Psychotherapy for General Anxiety & Trauma

I just wanted to say a big thank you for the best therapy I have ever had. I came to you full of anxiety, fear and childhood trauma, which was preventing me from living a full life.
I was struggling to sleep and have self confidence. Instantly, you to got to know me, what the issues were, and identified calming tools that would help me, the breathing tools were the thing that instantly helped to ground me .
You got to the root cause, while helping me not to relive the pain. You helped to build my confidence to say no, to do self care and to trust my instincts, you helped to be connect with my community and to accept who I am. You got me through a massive presentation, by helping me to breath, think positive and believe in myself.
Your personality, and directness is something I value and learned from. You have completely changed my life, I am happier, more settled and use the tools everyday. I fast forward to rough times, and move forward. I have stopped putting so much pressure on myself, and learned to let go of the stress and other peoples issues which were affecting me. Finding my happy place, helps to get through things, I have often visited that place in recent weeks. This has helped me in my personal life, work-life and of course my marriage and parenting.  I can’t thank you enough Sue.

Mindfulness and stress reduction for teams

Sue Haswell ran a mindfulness session for my team here at East Devon District Council. She introduced us to the concept of mindfulness and then gave us a taster session in terms of mindfulness practice. The techniques are simple, easy to remember and really effective. Back in the workplace we are still talking about the session and keep nudging each other to be mindful when things start getting to us. Sue’s friendly, energetic and engaging style make the session really fun and enjoyable and she even won over those more skeptical members of the team!

“Thank you, Sue! I have just spoken to a group of delegates who are full of praise for the work you have been doing.  They said that all the group are benefiting – so just wanted to say thanks to you Sue. You are changing lives.”   (Confidence, Self-esteem, Communication and Assertiveness group coaching programmes)

Consultant and advisor

Just a quick note to say a huge thank you for all your time and support throughout our recent Human Givens therapy sessions.
I really feel that your positive guidance throughout the whole therapy process has benefited me immensely in all areas of my life. The blend of techniques you have covered in our sessions has enabled me to make rapid progress by exploring the needs that have held me back from a growth mindset whilst taking planned yet simple actions towards meeting those needs. Instead of feelings dominated by overwhelm I’m now able to better manage and reframe my relationships, my financial security and work fulfillment whilst prioritising my wellbeing.
Your therapy approach has given me a much better understanding of my emotional needs and how these can best be met in a holistic and progressive way. As well as quickly clearing financial debts, I’ve been able to embrace my current relationship status as an opportunity to reconnect with myself towards healthy and happy future relationships,
I’ve employed additional support at home and professionally I’ve taken up a voluntary position serving on a national committee of my professional institute with a view to mentoring others. Your approach throughout the therapy process has been tremendously professional and inspiring and I have no hesitation in recommending you.
