Public Speaking Confidence Testimonials:
“For some years I have been suffering from quite severe stage fright, after a traumatic experience about 3 years ago which left me paralysed to speak or move in front of a large crowd. Although never a natural at public speaking I had never experienced a ‘total blank’ in front of professional colleagues, about 100 of them. It left me totally disabled professionally as my job requires me to present to or address large groups of people on a regular basis. I coped through avoidance mainly, but in worse case scenarios I would be anxious for days.
The one session helped me enormously by reducing the intensity of the emotional reaction provoked by the thought of presenting; it was as if the memory of the traumatic experience had faded in the vague distance. I presented to a group of people a few days after the session and I felt no anxiety prior to or during the presentation and this in turn gave me a huge confidence boost.

“Olivia helped me to deliver my best performance as a motivational speaker, no matter how challenging the scenario.
As an experienced and confident professional speaker, there were a couple of triggers that could really hinder my performance and were holding me back. And more importantly, the fears of those reappearing were also a major challenge and ongoing stress for me.
As a scientist, I was sceptical about being able to make an instant fix, but Olivia invested time in listening to my specific challenge, and with the right questions worked with me to figure out the roots of the problems.
She then used a few different methods to tackle them. First, she worked to break the mental pattern/triggers so they don’t happen, and then she taught me other techniques to use to identify the triggers if they ever appeared again and control the outcome.
Right before my biggest gig, our consultations lifted a huge weight and I’ve gone from strength to strength since then and am keynoting at even bigger events with confidence and without concern.
For anyone with any concerns about their performance or unfulfilled ambitions, it is well worth investing in a consultation.”
“Scientific Magic!”

Last week I had a session with Olivia to release a deeper level of trauma I have been experiencing. I wasn’t sure what to expect from the session but from the beginning, I felt that Olivia really understood what I needed. She guided me gently through the process intuitively, used a number of different techniques and the results have been amazing. Following the session, I feel lighter and clearer and a weight of responsibility has been lifted. What I loved was being able to take away tools that I can continue to use myself. I would not hesitate to recommend Olivia

“I needed a treatment for my fear of surgery, hospitals and giving birth. Your treatment helped me to forget the bad images of my experience and I believe this can help me through future events. Actually this week I had a dentist appointment and a small surgery. I was very happy about my calm reaction and after one hour I felt great.”
