TESTIMONIAL
Simon helped me completely change my outlook and finally beat my social anxiety after 18 years. I’ve tried self help books, spirituality,counselling, anti depressants which I stopped taking after completing the Thrive programme and many other things that I now know just made my problem more external and therefore worse. My advice to anyone with any problems at all is to study and follow the Thrive programme with Simon and it will change your life for the better. If I can do this anyone can. My new positive mindset and attitudes have also had a big knock on effect with my family. I have never felt so good and I know how I can keep it this way. It is quite simply the best thing I have ever done.
I can’t thank you enough. Jason (Cardiff)
The Thrive Programme – an unrivalled treatment for Social Anxiety
Perhaps there is an upcoming event that you would like specific help with. For example, you may be due to take your driving test (again!) and don’t want to fail it due to nerves; or perhaps you are due to give a presentation to your team at work and are dreading it. For these types of issue one of two sessions of the Thrive Programme can help enable you to reduce your nerves, worry or anxiety about the event and to feel more in control.
It can often help you to obtain a strong visual image of yourself being calm and self-assured in your upcoming event.
Here at Cardiff Thrive we have substantial experience of helping people to reduce anxieties over specific events and you would need just one or two sessions, a week or two before the event in question.
Ongoing and Pervasive Issues with Social Anxiety or Social Phobia
- Have you found that social anxiety or social phobia is having a limiting effect upon your life?
- Or perhaps you would like to remove and resolve all future issues with social anxiety?
If the answer to any of the above is yes, then you would benefit most from going through the full Thrive Programme with me which is a unique, research based and self empowering psychological training programme which, as well as aiming to help you to detect, understand and then change any unhelpful thoughts, habits or behaviours that you might have developed in regard to your symptom/s, also aims to help and empower you to create strong psychological and emotional foundations which can often lead to a more confident and resilient you and less likely to worry about any social anxiety related issues any more.
