Wendy Dignan Psychologist & Mental Health Expert I'm a Psychologist and anxiety expert who has spent 25 years helping people overcome anxiety It works. It’s been scientifically tested to work.

Thoughts going round and round in your head
Feeling overwhelmed
Needing to retreat from the world
That nauseous feeling building up and threatening to drown you
Foreboding, just waiting for something awful to happen
Not wanting to go out, just in case
Feeling removed, as if you’re outside your body, looking in
Never feeling comfortable or safe
Never feeling good enough
Always feeling like a failure
Waking up at 3am and not being able to go back to sleep
Not being able to turn your brain off to get to sleep
Dragging yourself through the day
Total exhaustion
Upset stomach
Running to the loo
Worrying about not getting to the loo

Sounding familiar? It’s time to beat anxiety and everything that runs alongside it, once and for all. Hello, I’m Wendy Dignan and I’ve just won the specialist mental health provider of the year award. I’m not a counsellor, a life coach or a self-proclaimed expert……..I’m a psychologist AND I’ve been where you are now. I’ve spent 25 years helping thousands of people, just like you, recover from anxiety. I’ve collected all the proven, practical things that really work and put them into an online course called Fearless Female. I want YOU to find out how you can be free of anxiety and get back in control of your life. And you won’t be speaking to somebody else, ever. I’ve written the course, it’s me who will answer your questions. It’s me who will show up for you.

Halloween: The season of spooky fun, but for many, the real fear doesn't wait for costumes. 👻

Anxiety doesn't just show up as an occasional fright—it’s the way your mind can spin a tiny "what if" into a story that feels intensely real in your body.

Swipe through this carousel where we break down the difference between the imagined fears we create and the sensations our bodies feel. You'll learn:

Why your body can't tell the difference between real and imagined danger.

How fear hides in quiet corners, not just big panic moments.

Why avoidance actually keeps the fear cycle going.

Practical, evidence-based ways to step forward anyway.

Remember: Fear lives in the mind, not in the shadows. This Halloween, let's start reclaiming our lives from the "what ifs."

It’s A time to recognise and support the millions living with obsessive-compulsive disorder. OCD isn’t just about rituals or routines; sometimes it’s an invisible battle with unwanted thoughts that won’t switch off. If that’s you, please know: you are not broken, and you are not alone.

With the right support and small, consistent steps, recovery is absolutely possible.

Please share this post to help increase awareness about OCD.

Are you ready to finally win the battle with anxiety?

I’m an award winning, published psychologist with practices in Wilmslow, Cheshire and Harley Street London. I’m particularly known for my work in beating the toughest, trickiest anxiety problems.

After 25 years of researching and refining the very best ways to stop anxiety in it’s tracks, I decided to take this knowledge into battle. Anxiety is the fastest growing mental health problem and the battle I’m going to win is to push anxiety back. I’ve drawn on all my experience, research and knowledge and put together something that will kick anxiety into touch.

I want to make it as quick and easy as possible so have developed an 8 week course that you can complete in the comfort of your own home. You heard right. No endless, expensive appointments to attend where you talk round in circles. Just all the stuff that actually works, that takes as little as an hour a week, to fit in when you want.

And none of this paying for a download that you have to wade through…….that you don’t read…….and feel ripped off.
