“Over the coaching sessions with Dave I achieved so much that I didn’t believe possible before, including buying a house, getting a promotion and pay rise and negotiating working from home. Although these are fantastic achievements in such a short space of time, they are nothing compared to the fact that I’ve got my self-esteem back. I no longer feel depressed and pointless and I’ve got my trademark giggle back which I hadn’t heard for years”

Amanda Arnold. Assistant Head teacher
My first session with Dave was one of surprise and enlightenment; I was working in a very stressful situation but it wasn’t until I began talking with Dave that I realized it didn’t need to be that way.
Now don’t get me wrong this epiphany didn’t come in one session, but through focused questioning, this was not easy at first, but then it became empowering
Dave has such a positive air about him. He helped me to acknowledge my achievements and move me forward through discussion and encouragement! Once I found this inner strength I became more confident in many situations, not just at work.
I am now able to approach situations more assertively and control my feelings to ensure I get the most out them.
Dave has helped me to remove the emotional obstacles that prevented me being the person I could me. He does not provide the answers, but the tools needed to reach them yourself. I have found this to be far more beneficial as I have come to understand myself on a new and higher level. Through his guidance and encouragement I have found my ‘inner child’ and begun enjoying the little things in life again with guilt free pleasure and be a happier more emotionally secure person. I am now well on my journey and have enjoyed learning about myself, and my relationships with those around me so much and I know it will make me a stronger person and I thank Dave for that!

“Many thanks for the Life Coaching sessions which I found really inspiring. I have found myself totally in charge of my life due to your coaching. I would certainly recommend your services to other friends and colleagues who couldn’t see the wood for the trees”

Before David's coaching I felt unsure of how to proceed, both in my home life and in setting up my business. My confidence was at an all time low and my motivation was poor. I had started to doubt myself in all areas and needed help in getting out of a rut.

Julian Management Consultant
“Someone I know recommended David’s coaching to me. At the time I lacked self esteem, was experiencing moods swings and was struggling with some important relationships. During my 6 sessions I was encouraged to articulate the ‘goals’ I wanted to set myself as I changed my perspective. Through strong questioning and guidance I was then stimulated to achieve these objectives through my own Endeavour.
The sessions helped me a lot at the time. Crucially, they also taught me how to seek objectivity in the way I approach my life. As a result I have gone on using the things I learnt and they are still helping me now. I don’t give myself such a hard time these days and, as a consequence, feel much calmer and happier in my outlook. This has helped me in both my personal and professional lives.”

“The goals were all my own work – breaking them down into achievable steps was where Dave came in. He also pointed out that it was OK to have fun along the way!!”

Claire, Training Advisor
“I found it impossible to lead a normal life, even something as simple as going grocery shopping resulted in panic attacks. I was not in control of my life and could not find a way out. The first time I met David I was a mess, how I held it together is a testament to how calming David is. I used to be happy, bubbly and outgoing but somewhere I had lost how that felt, David encouraged me to remember and has shown me techniques for keeping those feelings. I recommend David highly. If you don’t believe my words give yourself an hour with him and you soon will. "

Denise, Clinical Supervisor
“Just wanted to say thank you for the 6 sessions of Life Coaching I had with you.
After feeling very depressed, low, down and crying all the time, and not being able to focus on my life, I had to do something. A close friend of mine recommended that I contact Dave, it was the best thing I have ever done. I was extremely sceptical about contacting a "Life Coach" but I have to admit it worked. I started to hold my head up again, rather than walk down the road looking at the pavement. I felt better in myself, friends and people at work even started to notice the difference. I was laughing and smiling again, and enjoying my life.
The first thing I asked Dave to help me with was "Getting the real me back", I can honestly say that I have the real me back and I like her, thank you very much. Now being able to cope with life in general far better that I have ever done.
I would recommend Dave Jessop to anyone needing help in this way.”
Thanks again Dave.

“Without David’s coaching, I may well have continued to pussyfoot around problems that were causing me concern professionally and to deal with it competently. Definitely a coach I’d recommend”

Charlotte, BBC Radio Entertainment
“David has been a fantastic Life Coach. He cuts straight to the point when he asks questions, so that all obstacles are removed in taking steps towards my goals, and on top of that he is also very motivating and encouraging. I highly recommend David as a Life Coach to everyone”

Lorna, Lead Finance Manager
“At the time I met Dave I was struggling with the effects of losing my father and the need to hold myself together. My self-confidence was on the wane and I was starting to shy away from making decisions. I have no doubt that I would have declined further if I had not spoken with Dave. ”

Zara, Administrator, Community Drug Programme
“At my first appointment I was feeling very unsure of myself, low self-esteem and general feeling of dislike for myself. Within six sessions I have emerged (literally) with more confidence and better self-esteem. I am now very clear about relationships in my life. I am putting into practice positive rather than negative feelings about my life and myself”
