Comments from Freedom to Fly Workshop member:

I am in beautiful San Francisco on a belated honeymoon.  Last week I was in San Diego participating in my dearest friend’s wedding.  You have made these two events possible for me.  I can’t thank you enough.  You are my angels.
Alisa

We did it!  Even the flight crew had to sit down the entire way.  But the best thing I learned—we were all OK.  Thanks for the help and the tools to teach me to be comfortable flying.  You have opened a whole new world for us.
Janet

From the moment we first spoke on the phone when I called to make an initial appointment, you made me feel comfortable.  Your gentle and genuine demeanor set the tone and encouraged me to sign up for the Freedom to Fly course.  You are an inspiration.  Thank you for touching my life and helping me to grow.
Jessica

Who would have thought that three years ago I would have been island hopping in Hawaii.  A dream came true!  Thank you.
Joelin

I feel as if I am in paradise.  Perfect weather and beautiful views.  It took 20 years to return to Hawaii.  I handled the flight well and look forward to the return flight.  Thank you making this possible.  Aloha.

Reaching a teen who is grappling with his fears, and then earning his trust and respect, are big accomplishments.  The trust factor was clearly evident from the connections he made with your staff and the other workshop participants.  This resulted in our son feeling genuinely excited about gong out to Westchester County Airport each week for the class.  All in all, we believe our son is now equipped with coping mechanisms he needs to make flying, and other fear-inducing situations, far more manageable.

I wanted to let you know how my life has changed since I took the flying class.  I just go back from the Bahamas.  I am planning on booking another trip soon.  Thank you for all that the amazing course gave me.

Comments from Workshop members:

My greatest achievement was when I was able to return to the area where my trauma first occurred.

Just letting you know that the Public Speaking Group has already improved the quality of my life.
John

I had sought treatment for my claustrophobia through different therapists and organizations.  It was this course through the Anxiety and Phobia Center that really dealt with the phobia and made it manageable for me.
Dorothy

I think the workshop covers everything—mentally, physically and “hands on” with the counselors.  I would recommend it to everyone.  It saved me!
Ed

The public speaking group is beneficial because I now know there are others with this problem.  To know others have been where I am and have succeeded is empowering.  The group teaches, in manageable steps, to overcome something I thought I would have to live with the rest of my life.
