Testimonials
At Courage to Change Recovery, we believe healing begins with being seen, heard, and supported. These testimonials reflect the real journeys of individuals who have stepped into their courage, confronted their past, and found the tools for lasting change.
Working with Amanda over the course of a year and a half was truly life-changing. We did deep, transformative work around codependency that helped me uncover and understand long-held patterns and behaviours. Through her compassionate and insightful approach, I was able to integrate the tools and breakthroughs from our sessions into my everyday life—and the shift has been profound. Amanda is not only deeply empathetic and intuitive, but also incredibly skilled at holding space for real, lasting change. I’ve recommended her to many of my friends, all of whom have had powerful experiences of their own. I can’t recommend her work highly enough.
Kerry
This work with Amanda feels like a homecoming.🌿 I am very grateful to be on a journey learning how to safely connect. I am already experiencing some courage with some of my fears, for the first time in my life feeling okay with being on my own. Thank you Amanda for teaching me this fundamental self-esteem work.
Natalie
I just want to say that I am learning so much from Amanda about why I behave the way I do in all my relationships and how I can improve them moving forward, to become the woman I would like to be and how to love myself and raise my self-esteem. I can’t recommend Amanda enough to all the people who want to know more about how our emotions and minds work, especially those with trauma from the past and addictive personalities. It's been an enlightenment for sure.
Jennifer
I met Amanda at a time when I was really struggling with boundaries, in my personal relationships and at work, and feeling totally out of balance. I’ve always been quite extreme in my behaviours, and Amanda has helped me to understand why this is and how looking after myself can really help me to control this. She’s supported me to check in regularly, to see the bigger picture, and to treat this as a process rather than something I have to get right all the time. I’m so grateful I found her.
Aims
Understanding how to stand in my own truth and to become the woman I'm meant to be, is the greatest gift I can give to myself. Amanda is helping me do this! ❤️
Claire
Working with Amanda has been amazing. Doing the deep work necessary to get to the root cause of why I had barriers to love and healthy relationships has really been invaluable and I can't recommend her enough.
Stephanie
Amanda helped me work on a broad spectrum of issues. She gave me the awareness and confidence I was lacking prior to our coaching. I found through the coaching how my upbringing affected my recovery journey and how unhealthy relationships were an overriding factor in my life. Until my work with Amanda I didn't realise just how much it had been affected me all of my years.
Adam W
Amanda coached me while I was getting out of a very toxic relationship with a man who suffered from a narcissist disorder. She helped me to understand that my problems in my relationship with other people had their beginning in being a codependent. She was very professional and super supportive throughout all this time. Her guidance was based on clear structure and vast knowledge, which helped me to learn and understand so much about myself. I am, and I will be codependent, but thanks to Amanda, now I have the tools to know how to deal with my weaknesses.
Asha
At a time when I desperately needed to be held in a safe place, Amanda was the perfect person for the job. To be in Amanda’s presence is to feel immediately reassured and almost as soon as I met her I could feel the anxiety leaving my body as she told me everything was going to be OK. She allowed me to let go of trying to figure it all out whilst she gently and with great love and compassion suggested a therapeutic action plan that was simple to implement. I knew intuitively that I was in great hands and I would be walked through my troubles until I reached a place of safety. There was no pressure, just a loving and compassionate approach with my best interests at heart. She achieves this all with great humour and is a wonderfully fun and exuberant person who returns this lust for life to her clients. If you have Amanda to support you, you will be in the care of someone who only wants the best for you .
Sam
I’ve been working with my coach Amanda for some time now to process and heal from childhood trauma, and the experience has been truly life-changing. From our very first session, she created a space that felt safe, supportive, and free of judgment — something I had never experienced before in this kind of work.
She has a gentle, compassionate approach that made it possible for me to open up about painful experiences I had kept buried for years. At the same time, she offered steady guidance and practical tools to help me regulate emotions, build self-compassion, and understand how my past was still affecting my present.
Her deep understanding of trauma and how it shows up in the body and mind has been incredibly validating. I never felt rushed or pushed — just deeply seen and supported at a pace that felt right for me.
I’m truly grateful for the care, patience, and skill she brings to every session. If you’re looking for a coach who specialises in childhood trauma and creates a space where real healing can happen, I can’t recommend her enough.
