“Everyone was captivated by what you had to say and it’s the first time I have ever seen a standing ovation for an input at a training day!! Anyway, your talk has made me think a great deal and I am considering getting some counselling, so thank you very much for opening my eyes a little wider to that.”

“Steve kindly spoke for us about his experience in life and mental health and after the corporate day, two of my staff members reached out to me to arrange counselling based off the back of Steve’s talk - he gave them the courage to speak up and not suffer in silence - his words are powerful, moving and have a direct impact for the better on people”

“Steve shared his very vivid life experiences with us, no matter how tough one thinks they are, they are still at risk of breaking! Steve was very open about getting help and support and why it’s so important to unblock the brain to be able to move forward with life in a positive way. Thanks Steve it was amazing!”

“I'm really not great at learning however I feel the way this course was delivered allowed you to learn without feeling like you were in a classroom and so I feel like I took everything in and am confident now in my abilities to use it and what I have learnt. The course instructor and co-instructor was absolutely brilliant and a total asset to delivering this course. Thank you so much”
