Recent testimonial from mum of a boy aged 13yrs
Here's our testimonial. J has read it and agrees :)
I'm so glad myself and my son visited Judy. Our relationship was very strained and I felt that he was negative about everything- particularly school. I found it hard to find the good times to praise and connect in a positive way. I knew he needed to speak to someone outside of the family to try and understand how and why he felt the way he did. I saw Judy initially to give her some background on myself and my son and then he had 4 sessions on his own.
I was hopeful but realistic and didn't expect miracles.
Judy really understood him and this is just what he needed. He loved the sessions and after the first one I noticed a difference in his behaviour. I can only attribute this massive change in attitude to Judy's sessions as nothing else had changed. Also in the time he had sessions he returned to school (after lockdown) - which I was dreading. Since being back he has had far more praise from teachers about his engagement and enthusiasm.
Our relationship is massively improved and I feel that I have my son back. I no longer feel like we are locking horns and he has become far more loving and calm. He just seems happier!
I am overwhelmed by the way Judy was able to really 'get' him and would urge anyone else who is struggling to give it a go as I know it has been such a positive experience for both of us.
Testimonial from a 13yr old client
’Judy is really friendly and approachable. She has helped me deal with different situations that I would normally find difficult. Thank you for your help. Tom.’
Lovely reviews today from mums attending my local Meetup Group for parents.
"I went to one of Judy's parents meet up chats and I found it very informative. She helped me see deeper into my own emotions and feelings to get to the underlying root cause of how it may be affecting emotions in my son. I walked away with a sense of clarity and new perspective. I am incredibly grateful to have met Judy. I really love her warm, caring and highly intuitive nature. Thank you!"
"Thank you Judy that was sooooo amazing I loved it. Like with all these things you're not quite sure what you will or wont gain from it if anything at all but that was truly magnificent. I'm at a place where i totally grasped and understood everything you were saying. I could see all the parenting pitfalls and traps that i fall into not only with my kids but also with my husband too! I've known for a long time that my gut was telling me my son doesn't need "fixing" but that hes just following a pattern and also copying learned behaviour from us his parents! The talk today gave me deeper understanding of how i can break the cycles in our family without having to feel like its my responsibility to fix or control everyone all day, as that's just so exhausting. i also saw and felt lots of things that i do "right" as a parent and it helped validate me and my feeling as all too often i get caught up in the negative..blaming myself telling myself I'm not doing a very good job as a parent not setting a good example. I focus too heavily on the "bad" things my son is doing and don't actually pick up on his good qualities that i sometimes have even helped put into practice, attending today's talk helped me re-set my thoughts and i actually felt like i was doing a good job in many respects and the bits that are not so good, I don't feel utter despair about them i feel like there's an easier pathway to tread and I've been given the tools to do so quite confidently. So huge thank you! I feel i will be seeing you again soon as I'm now eager to learn more! Thank you so much. E xxxx
"I recently attended one of Judy’s workshops and I have come away from the session with some new ideas and skills to put into practice with my children.
As a parent to two young boys I found the talk refreshing and informative, but most of all helpful. It helped me to understand, objectively, where my little ones are coming from and how I can support them without judgment and help them to develop the skills they need in life to overcome emotions and situations. I am really looking forward and to putting everything into practice and teaching myself some ‘clean language’ doing some story telling with my children.
Being able to learn, talk freely and share with Judy and other parents was liberating and joyful. The setup, round the Arga in Judy’s home was warm, welcoming and friendly & Judy’s approach was open and straightforward. I will absolutely be back for more!"
"Thank you Judy. It was a thoroughly enjoyable session. I will definitely incorporate these ideas; some of the learnings around language I had been familiar with, but it was so useful to remind me and consolidate my understanding of conscious use of language. It was so interesting! I learnt a lot today. Looking forward to sharing it with my eldest son. I have already felt the benefits in the way I talk to both of my sons, today was a very relaxed bedtime. I have joined your meet up group, and I look forward to attending different sessions for my own development and interest too."

"My child had become very low on self belief and had lost motivation in his school work and felt he was not good enough. Judy’s approach with him was gentle and nurturing yet honest so it allowed him to reflect on a situation and make better decisions and not let those around him affect his choices. She also helped me understand the drama triangle and not to “rescue” so much. The outcomes have been amazing and really supported him in his transition to secondary school. Thanks Judy"
Z Testimonial
"After one session with Judy, my 10 year old daughter was equipped with some great skills to cope with a specific anxiety issue going forward. I stayed with my daughter for the session and was amazed to watch my daughter comfortably open up to Judy in a way I never thought would be possible .
I had initially thought it may be strange for my daughter and I also was concerned about signing up to endless sessions - I could not have been more mistaken. As my daughter said after just having one session of therapy:
“I felt like I could be super honest with her and felt it was really warm and cosy. I felt like I had known her for years”
I cannot thank or recommend Judy enough because as a parent we are not always equipped with the sufficient skills to truly get to the bottom of some of the issues facing our children . Reaching out for help was the best step I took for my daughter. "

"Judy I can’t thank you enough for my one to one training. There’s not a day goes by when I don’t think of you with my coaching and everything you showed me that works so well for children. You are seriously inspirational and I thank you for sharing your wisedom so I am now able to help children. I was extremely lucky to have met you. Thank you, Claire Jones x"

"Judy, when I first started on my NLP road and I attended one of your parenting chats I found you inspiring, informative, friendly and keen to help me by sharing all your knowledge. From a parenting chat you became my mentor and trainer . I am loving my new career and all the clients, friends, biz girls I have met and it is all thanks to you. You are a truly inspiring lady with a passion for helping others. Thank you" 🙏🏻❤️
Emma Hossack, one of my recent students on the NLP Kids Practitioner Skype course.
I highly recommend this course, for a beginner or like me as a practitioner looking to specialise in young people. Thanks to Judy Bartkowiak and her course, I have had some tremendous breakthroughs with my clients and my own children. My sessions are fun, meaningful and really tailored to young people which makes this course very unique. Thanks Judy, I can't thank you enough !
Feedback on the Confidence and Resilience four week programme from A: "I liked my sessions with Judy being via Skype as it felt safer and easier as I didn't know her. I like talking about how I feel and I found it harder to talk about my thinking. She gave me new ideas for managing my worries. I particularly liked week 4 and learning about the victim and rescuer roles and knowing I can get out of them and how."
Then a few weeks later.
"Hi, just thought I'd share that A has become much more independent and confident over the last 3wks.. wanting to choose and buy his own clothes, do things for himself.. so think the sessions along with getting his 11+ appeal have really given him a boost. Lovely to see 😉 I'm interested to hear how you found him and hope the above testimonial is useful."

“After a good research on the internet I found myself signing up for the master children’s NLP course with Judy. I know why I ended up with Judy: Judy is an inspiring, motivating but most of all a down-to-earth kind of person. And that suits me. She gave me energy to keep on coaching, she gave me a track which to follow. The weeks passed by in a blink of an eye. I actually enjoyed the Skype way. It is comfy in your own house with a good cup of coffee. And yes, we did laugh a lot! And yes, I do keep in touch with some of my global Skype-class-mates ;-)). Judy uses clear languages, in a nice pace. I have enjoyed every minute!”

“Judy’s NLP for Kids training is relevant and informative. Judy inputs really like scenarios into the training to help explain ideas and to this really helps the training to cone alive.
She is a great communicator and a massive support to all her trainees. If there is anything that you need help with she is easily contactable and willing to chat through ideas. Throughout the course you even end up picking up some great tips to deal build your own confidence too.
She is an inspiration as an NLP Practitioner and I would recommend Judy’s training. It's like having an experienced friend guiding you through.”

Judy Bartkowiak created an intriguing course on NLP for kids. Each hour we spent in learning was fascinating. I was able to take my previous NLP knowledge & gather a deeper understanding of the mind through Judy's course. I have been utilizing the guidence, wisdom & books of Judy in my Life Coaching business. I highly recommend Judy for personal & professional growth.

“Judy's help in bringing calmness to my 7 year old son through only one session of NLP proved great success to both my son as well as our family. His methodology and assessment of situations blossomed with thoughtful and considerate actions. His honest (and quite mature) opinions have been a delight to witness so confidently after his NLP session. He is more aware of his positive views and their purpose in his path. Judy's exceptional help in this great achievement is second to none...THANK YOU JUDY!”
