We have been commissioning YouPlus to provide Self Harm awareness training for our staff and Independent Sector since September 2005. During this time Jan has facilitated many sessions for us. We have been very happy with the training provided and have received very positive feedback from course attendees. I have no hesitation in recommending YouPlus as a training provider.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
REFERENCE-JAN RILATT
I have known Jan for just over a year as I have been doing some voluntary work . Earlier this year, she did a Confidence Building course with me over a period of several weeks and I feel she has a very special gift as a life coach. I don't usually find it easy to talk to people but Jan put me at my ease, was always very patient and gentle and I was able to relax and open up to her. I 'was never in any doubt that anything that was said would stay between us, she is always very discreet and aware of confidentiality. I feel I can talk to her about anything and know that she will never judge me, but always accept me exactly the way I am. Through the course she has been able to help me to take tiny steps to move forward. She has
never pushed me into talking about anything' found too difficult, or to do anything wasn't ready to do. I have found Jan to be an extremely positive person, this has rubbed off on me and has made me feel much happier about myself.
Jan encouraged me to write down my positive qualities and achievements which has been very effective in making me realize' do have lots of good qualities.
Jan's course has been extremely helpful- it is very different from anything I had ever done before as it is quite practical and visual, which means I can remember things we talked about much more easily.
Jan is an excellent life coach, giving me lots of support and encouragement. She gives lots of praise and has made me realize that steps which I thought were insignificant are actually huge achievements for me so now' have started to feel that' am a much more worthwhile person than I originally thought I was. I know that, with Jan's help, my confidence and self-esteem are slowly growing and I am beginning to attempt to do things' wouldn't have dreamt of before.
In fact, other people have noticed a difference and commented that I am more confident and am speaking to people more.
Jan is a lovely, cheerful person, very friendly, with a good sense of humour. One of the things I admire most about Jan is her genuine passion for helping other people. She spends a lot of her time doing this and works very hard. She is a very caring, kind-hearted person who is always ready to listen - she has made me feel much more optimistic. I will always be grateful to her for seeing the need in me and for helping me to start to move forward and enjoy life again.
