Relationship issues:
Dearest Caroline
As hard as it is to put into words just how much you have helped me. I wanted to let you know how forever grateful I will be to you.
When we first started our sessions together I lived with a constant barrier and negative belief towards any kind of love and affection that anyone tried to show me, let alone life in general. But the sad thing is that I accused everyone of not loving me but even sadder is that I truly believed I wasn't worth loving. My life was simply one big disappointment and I felt I was being judged as a constant failure by everyone, in particular those I so desperately love and those who I wanted to be loved by.
Then you took my hand and led me to the light at the end of the tunnel. You never promised me that you would take all this away forever but what you did promise me is that you could give me the tools to deal and dispose of any negativity which was taking hold of my life now and in the future. And that you did. You carefully posed questions and gentle guidance led me to recognise a set of personal goals and priorities and also establish the tools with which to see them through.
I have now put my feelings into action and remove the clutter in my life. I'd been hoarding loads! Up until now I was always trapped at the bottom of a huge dark hole, drained of any strength or energy to keep climbing. I may still encounter the odd stumble but one thing is for sure I feel confident enough to know that I will no longer fall.
I cannot thank you enough for your help and guidance. I only wish we had met years earlier.

Life coaching through divorce:
Thank you Caroline for being there every time I needed your support through my separation, for being so "hands on" and resourceful, always providing adequate tools for dealing with the different moments of the process.

Fear of Dogs:
Dear Caroline
You have improved and changed my life by curing me of my dog phobia. I did not think it was possible and was very pessimistic as I had been like it all my life and as I approached my 50s the phobia seemed to be getting worse to the stage where I virtually could not go out anywhere where dogs could possibly be.
This summer has been a joy for myself and my husband as we have been able to go for country walks, walks along the beach in fact walking anywhere used to be very difficult as I would suffer such panic when a dog without a lead was even in sight. I have not experienced any more panic attacks and dogs have been running around me recently on the beach I did not flinch. My husband and I are so pleased with the results and I literally "feel free" now to go out.

Chocolate craving and fear of performing in public:
Thank you for curing my fear of heights, flying and performing in public! It is an easy quick process! I can now go on roller coasters and play the piano in public. I am more relaxed and awake. My craving for chocolate has gone! I don't like Galaxy any more … it's weird because I love chocolate but sometimes I feel like eating vegetables instead!

Fear of flying:
I had a phobia of flying for the past 20 years.
I have had medication from the doctor in the past but over the last few years could only get through a flight drinking. This resulted in me feeling awful for the next day or so, and still didn't cure my anxieties.
With an 11 hour flight around the corner I had to try something new.
My visit to you was quite emotional but a huge relief.
As somebody who is quite sceptical about things I couldn't quite believe I was free of fear until I stepped on the plane, even though I felt a weight had been lifted from me after seeing you.

IBS:
I hope you got my message yesterday, to say thank you for everything and that I had the very best nights sleep I have had for ages. All seems to be going very well...it is astounding to me that such a procedure is so very effective. It is odd but when you have lived with Diverticulitis or IBS for so long it takes a while to notice that yes, it is definitely better!
