Testimonials

  • Steph supported me through my Undergraduate and Masters degrees. She has a lot of tools in her tool kit so she can help with pretty much whatever you seem to be stuck on, as well as guiding you to solve your own problems. I really appreciated having someone that knew me and what I was struggling with.

  • I cannot recommend Steph enough as a Mentor. This guidance transformed how I organised my time and tasks, making me feel more in control and less overwhelmed. This instilled habits that I still use today. With her support, I developed a newfound self-confidence that has positively impacted all areas of my life.

    Elizabeth, Graduated 2024

  • Steph was a lifeline for me through the difficult University years during the Covid pandemic. Without her, I’m sure I wouldn’t have managed nor flourished the way I have now.

    George, Graduated 2022

  • Steph was my Mentor during my time at University following a decline in my mental health in my first year. She had a tremendous positive impact on my University experience. Managing a stressful environment such as Uni was difficult because of my ADHD, but Steph always implemented revisions tactics to manage it.

    Amy, Graduated 2024

  • Steph made a huge difference to my University experience. I struggled with severe anxiety in my final year and Steph helped me advocate for support, manage my workload and I don’t think I could have done it without her!

    Catherine, Graduated 2022

  • Our son couldn't have asked for a more caring and supportive person (to mentor him) and I genuinely believe that Steph made it possible for him to stay the whole 3 years without a major meltdown of some sort.

    Matthew’s Parents

  • I was mentored by Steph during my last 1.5 years of University, following a diagnosis of ADHD. Having completed the first half of my course without Steph as my Mentor I am especially grateful, as I can now appreciate the significant impact that Steph’s help had during my time at University.
