Testimonials

Discover what clients say about their transformative experiences with Dr. Denise Taylor’s coaching and expertise.

“I never thought I’d be one for nature retreats. After 65 years as a mechanic, I was set in my ways. But sitting alone in the woods, watching leaves fall, I experienced something profound. It might sound strange, but I felt a connection to my ancestors – eerie yet comforting. This retreat taught me that sometimes doing nothing is exactly what we need. If you’re hesitant, especially at my age, give it a try. The quiet of the woods might surprise you.”

Nature Retreat, October 2024

“I spent an amazing 36 hours wild camping, gently held and guided in Denise’s earthen arboreal oasis. Her presence in no way overshadowed the profound sense of solitude that was the tonic my soul sought. Restorative, cathartic, and grounding, I am so very honoured to have been Buckram Woods’s inaugural 1:1 client.”

Nature Retreat, October 2024

“Seeking a gentle intervention to help me switch off and slow down, I joined Dr Denise’s October woodland retreat. Leaving my iPhone behind, I ventured into the woods where I mastered pitching a tipi tent, woke to the earthy scent of rain-soaked forest, and spotted deer crossing my path. The evening fireside gatherings were lovely. Dr Denise created a safe space for reflection and coaching. Her wise, non-judgmental approach helped me set meaningful goals. I’ll return when bluebells bloom to check my progress. The whole experience helped me breathe more deeply and slowly.”

“Absolutely loved visiting Denise in her fabulous woods … I found the coaching to be an even more thought-provoking session by being immersed in nature, as it gave me chance to switch everything else off and focus on what’s really important … having a cup of tea in the woodland with a gently setting sun as a backdrop felt so restorative… I felt on a high during my drive home with all the ideas and opportunities for change. Thank you, Denise. Highly recommended.”

“After a glorious walk through the bluebells, I settled into my first ever coaching session. With the tranquillity of the woodland and the gentle smell of a woodland fire, it was easy to relax into the conversation. Being outside, without being clichéd, felt freeing, and really helped with perspective on things. Thank you, I left with a lovely sense of calm as well as lots of insightful avenues to consider and explore.”
