“The HAB was a bit of a revelation to me. My results enabled me to make connections between all the struggles and frustrations I’d had in life, and it explained a lot of my successes too. There were areas that I had strong abilities in that had just never presented themselves to me for multiple reasons – because they weren’t part of my self-perception, because my upbringing didn’t include the opportunity to explore them, because I had noticed a difference in myself versus my peers and thought some were actually weaknesses. The HAB really built my confidence to try new things and trust in myself. Denise’s advice following the assessment was very valuable, she gave me ideas on how to incorporate what I’d found out into my existing career and how to get more out of life. I have been able to plan my career with much better focus, I’m now taking up hobbies to satisfy the abilities that I don’t use at work”.

“I found my session with you extremely helpful. You listen attentively, turned negative thoughts into positive ones and helped me see there was some light at the end of the tunnel. You helped me extract the important information from my muddled mind and made very useful suggestions for possible future jobs. I found the whole experience, motivating, confidence building, informative and fun!”
Louise Jennings
“Denise you are an inspirational Goddess and you have made me love life to the full again! Your tentative manner makes me feel like I am being treated as a friend not just as a client, which has been immensely reassuring during this important change in career, and life direction. Taking the steps to get in touch with you is the best move I have made in years and it has definitely been a positive life changing experience”.

“I would like to say how helpful I found our meeting, especially the fact that it reassured me that the reason that I find some aspects of my work so difficult and stressful isn’t because I’m less intelligent or just not trying hard enough but that my strengths lie in other areas – so that’s given me more confidence and acceptance of how things are. I’m also happy to ask others how they manage their workload or even how they cope with specific teenage challenges – just to find out whether their coping strategies might be helpful to me.”
Kate, Physiotherapist
“Thank you for listening, sharing in a very generous, giving manner, and making me feel proud of my past. Your structured approach to taking the next steps are easy to follow and I’m making good progress and feeling much more positive about the future. Your guidance and suggestions “outpaced” two other organisations, making me feel comfortable when other so-called experts did not have the depth of experience you demonstrated!”
Mark
“Denise made me feel at ease so I could talk to her about anything! Of course with Denise’s experience as a careers counsellor she could offer great advice, as well as make you laugh and see that you do have a lot of qualities about yourself, and how you can put them to practice. I feel more focused on what I want to do now and will be meeting with Denise again to help me through the processes!”
Rebecca Gorman
“You are an excellent advisor and facilitator, and I would not hesitate to recommend you to friends, relatives, or colleagues. It was great to work with you, Denise. I really appreciated your supportive, non-judgmental, ‘can do’ attitude to addressing what had initially felt like a real tangle of issues.”
