I witnessed the impact that the sessions had on the children — they became more confident and had been presented with a range of strategies to handle the challenges life was throwing at them. When the opportunity arose for me to train — it was a no brainer. I think we have the best job in the world.

What coaches say about training with us

★★★★★
When I became a STILL Method coach, not only was I helping the children and adults I was working with — I noticed that my training had had a profound effect on myself too. I have become a more confident and happier person. People who know me say how much I have changed for the better.

★★★★★
Having a proven, standardised method to overcome anxiety seemed far more beneficial to me as a counsellor — and to anyone experiencing the condition. I knew straight away that this was the way I wanted to go in my career.

I loved this course — it gave me more confidence, focus and self-belief. I would whole-heartedly recommend it. The delivery is very professional and carried out with great ease. The rapport is fantastic.

The Framework

A method. Not a wish.

When anxiety takes over, most people are told to stay calm, breathe, think positive, wait it out.

That is not a method. It is a wish.

The STILL Method is a practical, repeatable framework that gives children, adults, and the people who support them a real way to respond to anxiety in the moment it appears. Every programme, session and training course sits inside this structure.

The STILL Model for schools and children’s services

The STILL Model is a distinct, specialist framework for schools, residential homes and children’s care settings. It gives staff a consistent, trauma-informed language and approach to anxiety — one that works in real life, not just in training rooms.

Already used across the UK, the STILL Model replaces guesswork and sticker charts with structure that actually holds.

A shared language for emotional regulation across your whole setting
Trauma-informed, neurodivergent-aware practice throughout
Practical tools for staff, SENCOs and keyworkers
4-day practitioner training with ongoing mentoring
Supports OFSTED evidence for wellbeing provision

There is a tangible difference in the children who have taken part in the STILL Method sessions. There seems to be an inner calmness — they are less worried and don’t get as phased by changes to their routine. It has given them the strength to deal with their perceived adversities.
