I joined the Part-Time/Self-Paced Volunteer programme a few months ago and have only brilliant things to say about Overcome and everyone involved in it. A team full of amazing people working together... See more

Overcome Feedback
Devanshi was fantastic, she heard my issues patiently and we managed to make a lot of progress as well. I am really grateful for this and thanks a lot devanshi and overcome for helping me out when needed.
Perspective shifts to manage depressive thoughts
My sessions with Erin were extremely helpful and beneficial to my mental well-being. With her help I was able to make perspective shifts that allowed me to be more content with my life and more realistic in my view of my day-to-day. I am super grateful to both Overcome and Erin for the help and guidance they provided me with at such a vulnerable time!
My sessions with Lizeeta were truly…
My sessions with Lizeeta were truly wonderful. She supported me with my work-related feelings and emotions in a way that left me feeling lighter and more inspired to move forward. I’ve already started putting into practice what I learned, and it’s been really motivating. I’ve recommended Overcome to my friends, one has even joined already, and I’d happily recommend it to anyone, even those already in therapy, who feel they’d benefit from extra space to explore certain aspects of their state or who want to try new approaches like coaching.
I have had a very positive experience…
I have had a very positive experience with Overcome. The whole process from on-boarding through the 6 sessions I did was professional, efficient, and thoughtful. My coach was great. I’ve done a few years of therapy and this was the first time I’d worked with someone who was so solutions-oriented. My coach was super kind, curious, and clearly had a lot of expertise and helpful ideas for how I could improve my mental wellbeing (at home and work). I am still using the tools I learned. Also it is extremely helpful to get the detailed notes after each session. Thanks so much!
Expert Advice From People Who Care
I feel so supported from my experience with Overcome. My coach was an engaged listener and offered expert advice when appropriate. She has amazing tools that she shared to help with binary thinking, motivation, and as the kids would say, "crashing out." I highly recommend Overcome to anyone who is striving to achieve greater things in their life and become more emotionally resilient.
The programme offered by Overcome…
The programme offered by Overcome really helped me throughout the past few months. I was able to look more into myself and realised many things.
The best therapy I’ve ever had!
I worked with Irene for the last several months and she has helped me proccess some past events, how it has impacted me as well as how to build the tools needed to handle future experiences - I am so grateful for her guidance and I wouldn’t be where I am today without her help!! Would highly recommend Irene as a coach, it has changed my life for the better 🙌🏻
Overcome sessions
The sessions were a valuable time of insight and encouragement. From the beginning i felt heard and supported. My coach Mr David was very patient with me and ensured he created a safe space where I could share openly.
I feel more equipped and confident to move forward. I now have a sense of renewed clarity both in my emotions and career which I deeply appreciate.
I'm so glad I found Overcome
I'm so glad I found Overcome. When I first heard about it, I thought I’d give it a try—because why not? I was going through an incredibly difficult season. They responded so quickly and matched me with the amazing Laura. In those moments when everything felt unbearable, the one thing I truly looked forward to was my sessions with her. I’ve come such a long way. Overcome is doing an incredible job. 10/10 would recommend!
Exceptional Coaching Experience - Highly Recommend
I completed 6 sessions with Isabelle, an exceptional coach with a natural talent at Overcome and am really grateful for the quality of support I received. What made these 6 sessions remarkable was: the active listening, empathetic attention and thoughtful questions from Isabelle, as well as the well-thought combination of structure and empathy. I really appreciated receiving detailed summary notes after each meeting that captured key takeaways and insights. Isabelle demonstrated exceptional active listening skills, picking up on nuances I hadn't fully articulated myself, and her thoughtful questions were always purposeful, helping me explore ideas from new angles I had not considered on my own. The communication style was both professional and genuinely warm - I felt heard and understood throughout the process, never judged, and always supported in exploring feelings of guilt and lack of clarity at my own pace. It´s worth noting that the sessions also added a component focused on developing concrete skills and strategies that helped me apply the insights into the real world, in actiomable steps that I could then review then next session togetger. With respect to logistics: booking sessions was straightforward, and the administrative side was handled efficiently. This let me focus on the coaching itself. Isabelle was an exceptional companion on this journey of personal growth, and her patience, empathy, insights, and structured approach created an environment for meaningful change. She has a natural aptitude for building empathy and thinking in a reflective yet actionable/ optimistic manner about a range of difficult topics. With the support given, I was able to achieve the goals I set out to accomplish and gain new tools I hope to continue using . If you're considering coaching support, I highly recommend Overcome - outstanding work!
A Journey of Healing and Growth
I was overwhelmed and emotionally shattered. Deep down, I was silently hoping for someone to help me because it had all become too much to handle on my own. That's when I found Overcome-it connected me with a mentor who didn't just guide me, but truly helped reshape my outlook on life.
With his support, my mental health improved significantly. I began to approach situations with a sense of calm and maturity that I never had before. Earlier, I used to make impulsive decisions in the heat of the moment, but now I think things through and respond with clarity.
This journey has been life-changing, and I'm truly grateful.
Fantastic Service
I applied for coaching with Overcome to try and improve my self confidence. The online application form was very quick and simple to complete, and I subsequently had a short chat with John, one of the founders, so he could find out more about what I was hoping to gain from the sessions. I was then assigned Dominic as a coach and I cannot praise him highly enough. He's very empathetic and a great listener and he carefully guided me to reframe and question negative thoughts that were not benefiting me in life. After each session, I got a useful summary of what we discussed, as well as some useful suggestions and short reading materials for me to reflect on in between sessions. I feel that my self-confidence has substantially improved after completing the six sessions and I have become a more positive person in general. It's great that I have the written summaries to look back on, when needed, in order that I can continue to reinforce my progress. Overall, I highly recommend Overcome's service and feel very fortunate to have come across them.
Warm, helpful, and effective coaching
I had a great experience with Overcome. My coach, Irene, was warm, easy to talk to, and made me feel understood. Over six sessions, I made real progress, like building habits around better emotional regulation. Highly recommend!
Wonderful and incredibly helpful
I had a wonderful experience working with my coach, Dominic. When we began our sessions, I was feeling deeply depressed and stuck in my life, unable to imagine how things could ever change. But session by session, we explored different aspects of my situation, and by the end of our time together, I had regained my joy for life and the energy to start making the changes I needed.
One of the things I especially appreciated was the way Dominic asked questions - it often gave me a completely new perspective and helped me reflect more deeply on my feelings and the reasons behind them. After each session, he would send a thoughtful summary of what we had discussed, which I found incredibly helpful. These summaries often included additional insights, exercises to try, or materials to read before our next meeting.
I also really valued the flexibility of the session schedule. We were able to meet more frequently when I had the time, and less often during busier periods, which made the whole process feel more manageable and supportive.
I'm so grateful I came across Overcome - I still can't quite believe what a fantastic service they offer, and all completely for free. I would definitely recommend it to anyone going through a difficult time.
Really great experience and the best…
Really great experience and the best therapy I’ve had. Coach was understanding and gave great exercises and advice. I liked being able to time my sessions for longer than a week apart. It gave me plenty of time to put things into practice before my next session, compared to therapy I’ve had in the past that was weekly and I struggled to put the exercises into practice before the next session. Couldn’t be more grateful for this experience and for Overcome.
Pleasantly surprised, worth a try!
I honestly can't believe this organization even exists. The coach I was assigned is the best therapist I've had to date. Not only is she an incredible listener and actually 'gets it' but she continues to offer insights and behavioral suggestions that have helped me so much in my journey in dealing with stress. I can't recommend this organization enough! Even had the chance to speak with the founder John who is a great guy. It's a cool model where they have at least 6 sessions where get to just work on your goals with your assigned coach without costing a thing, and they are more than comfortable if you want to just stop there. I decided to continue with my coach and the rates are the most reasonable I've seen (her sessions are between 10-30 GBP pay what you can model) which is insane compared to other platforms I've used like Betterhelp and others. Give it a try :)
