I've been meaning to write a review here for some time about Lisa and MindMatters. I have always had an extreme fear of public speaking, and had assumed that it was something that could never be properly resolved. My solution: avoid public speaking at all costs. \r
Recently, however, I received 2 promotions that positioned my career path such that I could no longer avoid presentations and speaking to large groups. Desperate for ANYTHING that might soothe my extreme anxiety, I scheduled an appointment with Lisa after reading her wonderful reviews online. And honestly, it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. \r
In just 2 sessions, I made more headway than I ever managed to do with years of presentation practice in school and on the job. Not only did Lisa put me at ease with presenting itself, but she has helped me develop a confidence in myself and my performance that has been lacking for some time. Though presentations still make me a bit nervous... the physical signs of anxiety (clammy hands, tunnel vision, stuttering) have all gone away. \r
The sessions are soothing and relaxing... and I plan to continue to make appointments for regular ""tune-ups"" - if and when an impending presentation really rattles me.\r
Highly, Highly recommended.
Pros: Warm, Friendly Practioner; Relaxing Sessions; Very Helpful in Relieving Anxiety
Cons: None!
