Debbie's Story:

Sadly, following the passing of my Stepdad, my Mum suffered a substantial decline in both her mental (severe dementia and psychosis) and physical health (multiple myelomas which led to neck and hip breakages).

She battled with these conditions for a year before sadly passing in early June. Thus, the last year has been an incredibly traumatic one for our family, and quite honestly, I don’t think I would have survived without the sage guidance and support of Ben.

Thankfully I was able to see him regularly throughout this period. His massage and coaching combination provided the perfect opportunity for me to honestly discuss and release the stress of my situation in real time. He helped me discover new approaches for coping with this new version of my mum, creating enhanced relationship dynamics, whilst also understanding and letting go of unhealthy patterns of behaviour which characterised my previous relationship with her.

All of this allowed me to have more compassion for both my mum and me, which in turn allowed me to navigate the tricky journey of supporting her through the ups and downs of the last year, whilst importantly maintaining my own physical and mental health.

As such, despite the sadness, this year has not broken me, and instead I’ve managed to grow with each challenge. I’ve had coaches in the past, but none match up to Ben. He has a totally unique approach to coaching that always leaves me feeling uplifted, calm and inspired. When I walk through the door at home, all my family say, “oh, you’ve had a Ben session, that’s why you’re so relaxed and happy!” He has been life changing for us, I would highly recommend him to everyone, especially those going through difficult times.
