"Sian has a much clearer idea of her abilities and skills and how she could use these in her future career, she is more focused on her future. The ability assessment was very useful - very comprehensive and by talking it through with Sarah it helped Sian to gain an understanding of her natural abilities and how and why she finds some things less easy to master. Sarah gave support and an objective assessment with comprehensive follow up." Ros Mother to Sian 16 year old
"One school term later we have seen a real change in Jess, she is altogether happier and more confident and much better able to cope with problems that come her way. An added bonus has been that her grades in all school subjects have rocketed as a result of her new found confidence". Lyn Gregory
" Sarah has an amazing ability to engage with teens and to help them overcome the issue they struggle with. Trust her! She was able to help our daughter in ways that we found difficult as we were seen as critical parents. Emma has learnt invaluable life skills that she will keep forever. She is not phased by the thought of starting college and making new friends, she is confident and she has all she needs to settle in quickly. Unlike many 15 year olds she is clear what she wants to do and happy and content with her decisions" Carolyn and Ian Matheson
A testimonial from one of my clients (Chris Sfassie) after she has been interviewed for You And Yours, Radio 4.
"I forgot to tell you that I thanked Ryan this weekend about the interview. I shared how Connie could not believe that I respect him when he continues to do so many things wrong. I told him how wonderful it is for me to recognize that difference between who he is and what he does. It's so freeing and beautiful. He completely agreed. He looked me right in the eyes and said, "
"Mom, I'm really glad you told our story. You are SO different now and it's cool. You always loved me, but now you respect me and accept me just as I am - no matter what. I know you will always turn me in when I'm doing things illegal. But I also know that you will still respect me. I love that about you. Kids need that. You guys need to tell parents this stuff and make them listen."
"Thank you Sarah for giving me my son back. "
Sarah has helped Isobel see things through my eyes as well as her own. She has helped her with her approach to learning. I felt I needed a bit extra help with Isobel. I felt she was not doing her best at school and that she could be more motivated" - one of Sarah's clients talking to The Sunday Express
"I've enjoyed the journey of developing parenting my teenage son. I've gained a new balance of being able to meet my own needs and meet my son's needs without feeling guilty about taking time for myself. I have learnt to add the word respect to my acknowledgement of others. It's been great to have the support of Sarah, and the framework to move in, which I surely would have lost track of if Sarah had not been there as my coach." -Catherine Shaw
"Again, thank you for an amazing call today. Your coaching skills and insights are priceless and I am so grateful to know you and just be in your company." - Carol Satterlee
"Things are going really well. We have put the boundaries in place and Emma is responding very well. Communication is even better between my husband and her. I feel as though we are all communicating on a different level and the tension has gone. So I really want to thank you for all your work on this." -- Barbara A. Wilson
"I now have a very loving and close relationship with both my children and very much enjoy using the skills, especially appreciation! By noticing ways I appreciate them and then telling them, I feel great. I never thought I'd say I really enjoy having teenagers but I do!" - Ruth Garcia
"I cannot begin to show how grateful I am for your help. Even with just reading your newsletter and other related bits. It has changed my direction as a mum. I am positive with both of my boys now. Instead of looking at them every time they came in late or left their dirty clothes on the floor in an 'inside out' pile and asking myself 'why?', I smile and know that I am not alone in my quest for a harmonious life. I now look at them both as two young men and not as two aliens! You have got me thinking positive and I thank you again." - Lyn, Ben and Danny.
"Thank you, I feel as though I have found a diamond in a black hole! I am not a big TV watcher or a paper reader and I have never heard of you but you have most certainly made me realise how not to speak to my boys. I needed guidance and have found it in your site. Yours gratefully," - Lyn Dowson -Mother of 2 boys
"It's good to know that I'm not blinded by motherly love. That someone other that myself, can see that, in spite of all the problems that my son has gotten himself into, he is still a wonderful young man. This is the most difficult thing any parent has to face. You never know whether you're doing the right thing. The fear, anger, disappointment, doubt and self blame are present every minute of the day. I am STILL terrified for his future, but with love, a lot of patience and motivation, I believe my son will recover. Having a stranger tell me that my boy is a fine young man gives me the assurance the I must have done something right after all. Thank you, for brightening my day." - Paula

"I just wanted to say thank you for all your help. You made me realise I have to start believing in myself and to respect others as well as myself. I am really grateful for all you have done for me. Before you came, people always saw a front, not the real me. Now you’ve taken that away and I am a better person. I’ve also started to trust people more, which I didn’t before. Now you go and work your magic on another young person and make them believe in themselves as well!" - Melissa Burke participant (17) on My Teen’s a Nightmare….I’m moving out.
