TESTIMONIALS

  • The help I have received from candida has been liberating. The way she facilitates growth is unique, with her gentle voice that probes the hidden answers within allows the space she offers to feel safe, calm, patient and kind. Candida leads with intuitive wisdom, guiding whilst allowing the knowledge we already have within to come forward and be realised and processed gently. The tools she uses are powerful in a way that each individual can adapt to their own growth cycle. Her empathy and compassion help to lower walls built from trauma to be taken down as slowly or quickly as is comfortable. The challenges I’ve faced this year Candida has made feel easy to navigate and overcome with her gentle guidance. I wouldn’t be where I am now without Candida’s help. I will be forever grateful to her.

  • ''My experience with Candida was amazing! We discussed my hesitations and self limiting beliefs around putting myself out there and doing what I love the most. We delved into positive reframing which empowered me. Her series of questions was hitting all the nails on the head and motivated me so much to the point where I made a significant change only a few days after our very first session. So grateful and blessed to have come across her profile! She gets a great understanding of the issue very early on and knows exactly how to guide the conversation. Truly amazing! Thank you so very much, Candida''

  • “Candida’s sessions were instrumental in helping me navigate a huge confidence knock. Her manner is incredibly kind and gentle while addressing very challenging and sensitive issues. She uses several different techniques which helped work through the different areas I needed help in and without question I feel stronger now and more confident. I am more equipped to face uncertainties and challenges, and ready to take on new adventures with enthusiasm – which is not a place I was in before we started! I wholeheartedly recommend her for anyone needing help with clarifying what is important and building confidence.”

    Therapy client

  • Candida possesses that rare skill of being able to offer completely focused, supportive, silent attention to her coachees. In this stillness both clarity and growth can be achieved. It is an absolute pleasure to be in her presence’
