We have just completed the program! It has been a total game changer in our family, such an easy to understand and follow program and I can't thank Sam and her team enough for after suffering from anxiety and school avoidance myself, this program first of all helps us. (puts the oxygen mask on us) to help our family. My daughter was in and out of hospital with severe pains in her tummy and ended up being admitted on morphine! A knowledgeable consultant assured me there was nothing medically wrong with her after numerous tests MRIs bloods etc… “SOMETHING WAS SERIOUSLY TROUBLING HER!” (which we then broke down to school) which as a mum i found extremely hard to believe. This is when the wonderful world facebook somehow in its world tapped into my searches and Sam's video popped up! I was very skeptical, but it was like she was talking to me!! I am a single mum of 3 children and has been worth every single penny! It wasn't easy and took some serious dedication and every breath over the summer was given to the program. Trust me. IT WORKS! She was out of school 12 weeks and is now attending school full time!! Thank you thank you.
I have got to the end of the first part of the programme and can see positive changes happening in our house already. I am looking forward to seeing more changes as we start to engage my daughter in the next phase, and helping her to understand that her life doesn't have to be rules by anxiety any more.
We are nearing the end of our journey and entering evergreen. There have been many ups and downs but to see my daughter finally being the person she was meant to be is the most amazing thing. She still has her days and that’s ok, we all do but what Sam and the team has done for us is something that we will be forever grateful for. Who would’ve thought that something that makes you feel so uncomfortable would actually be the answer to it all. Love you, team young vibes.
A really good course, would recommend it. It has helped me as a parent to know how to guide my child through this difficult stage.
Having just completed the parent portal bee, I thought I knew what anxiety was and how it manifested. This course has helped me understand how my anxiety was feeding my sons anxiety. I now see that I had to first deal with my anxiety and now I can move on to helping my son with his.
So far, everything I have learned from this program has made so much sense to me. We still have a long way to go so cannot comment on the next phase, but am excited to get started on this with my daughter. I have found support here on this program where otherwise there is very little around for children with anxiety.
We have just completed the first portal and I have learnt a lot about my anxiety levels and how it was making things worse. We are definitely in a better place thanks to this programme. The team are really helpful and supportive. The zoom calls have been really beneficial and there are plenty of videos to gain insightful advice. I would definitely recommend it, I wish I had joined it sooner 😊
Finally a glimpse of hope. The programme and the coaches are truly amazing. After going through the first stage of the programme, I've gain so much knowledge and understanding of what anxiety is, what causes it and how to stop it ruining our lives. This should be taught at schools to help our children understand that they are not mentally ill and give them tools to stop it at its tracks. I am very grateful to Sam, Hannah and Davina for their guidance and support so far and looking forward to helping my daughter feel happy and full of life again. Thank you
We have just finished the Bee portal - the videos are extremely useful for understanding the anxiety our child experiences and the zoom sessions are Invaluable for learning and sharing experiences and getting advice, the support from the team is amazing - we are now looking forward to getting our child involved and moving forward
We have completed the first part of this program and what a difference our household vibe has. We are more relaxed and enjoying each other's company and having a laugh again. Looking forward to the next stage.
I wish I had found Young Vibes years a go. My son suffers from what I now know as anxiety and suffers from OCD amongst other symptoms because of it. There needs to be more awareness of anxiety rather than just diagnosing children with Autism and them not getting the help they need. I have just completed the first stage of the program, with very noticeable changes in my son and we haven't even engaged with him as yet. Looking forward to a much brighter future.
Seeing my child change in just a few weeks once I started the programme has been amazing! it really works.
This course has turned our lives around and we have our happy & confident little girl back attending school. We have dedicated a lot of our time to making this our number one priority and it has paid off. This course would benefit everyone, we couldn’t recommend it enough!
We are thrilled with our experience at 'Young Vibes'. The positive environment and engaging activities have made a noticeable difference in our behaviour, which has filtered down to my daughter. Our daughter is more communicative and appears happier overall. The staff's dedication and the program's structure work well, but we still have a long way to go with her, and looking forward to the next stage of the programme. We highly recommend 'Young Vibes' to any parent looking to see a positive change in their child's development.
Ash was super kind and helpful to our daughter, enabling her to remember how amazing she is. She went from being house-bound, terrified of school, to returning to a number of day-to-day activities with renewed confidence.
This program has definitely been life changing for the whole family. Learning about anxiety and how actionable it can be to live a life without it has been revolutionary for me. I’m only part through the program but I’m looking forward to what comes next and I have every confidence in the team. They are incredibly available and give you exactly what you need to progress. I can’t recommend it enough.
This has help our household tremendously. We are living a calmer happy more relaxed life, my son is happier more chatty and hasn’t self harmed in months
We have just completed the first stage of this programme, so it's early days, but it has been an encouraging start. When you have an anxious child and are struggling to know what to do it can impact the whole family. The on-line material, regular Zoom calls (for the parent initially) and interactive chat support have all been useful in helping us understand what has happened to our daughter and how we can help her. The level of interactive support we are getting is so much more than we have been offered through other pathways. The 1-1 advice on how to handle specific situations has also been invaluable. As a stay at home Dad, don't be put off by the somewhat dated references to 'Mum'. This is a programme that so far has been beneficial to everyone in our family, me especially. Mum, Dad, Auntie, Grandma; whoever you are, this can help.
I am writing this having just completed the Bee portal. Wow, what an eye opener! My son has been struggling with school ever since his first day, 10 years ago. We have had ups and downs along the way but we finally hit a brick wall just a couple of months ago. He was struggling every day with anxiety and so many of the behaviours he was showing which had led us to believe he had OCD/ASD and many more. After completing the Bee portal, I now fully understand what anxiety actually is..as it was just a word I would find myself saying..daily. "he won't be in today because of his anxiety" I actually didn't know what anxiety actually was, how it worked and manifested or how my son had got to the point he had. Well...I definitely do now and this has been so interesting on so many levels and I learnt very quickly that I too, was full of anxiety. With the changes in our behaviour as parents and a lot of reflecting, and the spotlight taken off my son, I can now say that we have become a much calmer household, my son is smiling again, he is much more involved with us (not all the time) but he is able feel part of the family again and not feel like he constantly letting us down and disappointing us on the daily as he couldn't physically go to school even though he just wanted to (his words) "be normal like everyone else". He isn't yet back at school as we are about to start him on his part of the journey in the next few days and I am no longer nervous, but excited to see where this programme will take us next. Thank you so much to the team and especially Hannah for all your support. From reading and replying to emails late at night, to giving me the pep talk before the school meetings, telling me that I can do this and having my back! I honestly felt so accomplished when I walked out of the school after advocating for my son and feeling so supported from this programme. Off to the next portal!.........🌟

Oct 29,2024I have just finished the BEE part of the programme and I must say I don’t think anything has ever resonated as much with me as this programme has so far in terms of parenthood. I must admit I was a little nervous starting as I wasn’t sure what the parent element of the programme would be. However, having embarked on this journey and completing the BEE part of the programme I feel confident, knowledgeable, understood, fully supported, and ready to take the next part of the journey with my daughter. I can already see such positive changes in my daughter from the subtle changes I am making and real positive changes in both of our behaviour. I know this sounds cliche but I have learned so much about myself as a parent and I now feel armed with the tools to begin to help my child become a confident, anxiety free young person living life to the full. I am looking forward to the next part of the journey bringing my child on board and I am confident this programme is the answer to her recovery THANK YOU 🙂
