R - "John has no preconceptions and is very easy to talk to, so that a trusting atmosphere and a feeling of rapport is very easily and quickly achieved.  He has a practical approach which allows focus on day to day issues and their resolution, but also in the process, raises awareness of inate strenfths and weaknesses.  John has a very incisive way of identifying core issues, and therefore in a positive and structured way he has challenged my perceptions of myself."

S - "John was more than just a coach.  He was a friend when I needed one most.  He helped me think about myself, put all issues into perspective, recognise my core values, set goals with smart targets and challenge me to act to achieve them."

S - "My coaching sessions with John have helped raise my confidence, given me the strength to tackle issues/emotions and to come up with options to cope with them and helped me plan a way forward.  He is supportive, trusting and very professional.  He has helped raise my self-esteem (which was at its lowest) and is more than just a coach.  He is a friend when you need one the most."

S - "John is a true listener.  He listened to what I had to say and held me accountable to what I wanted to achieve.  I found our sessions reassuring and gave me the courage to work through self doubt.  John's welcoming, capable and matter of fact approach, ensured I always looked forward to our sessions and left feeling positive and confident to take the actions I needed."
