This was absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend the experience to anyone with a spider phobia... I was very proud of myself for being able to capture and release a house spider and handle a tarantula... things I never thought I would be able to do! I am far more confident now... Thanks so much for a fantastic day.
Petrified of spiders (even photos of them) my entire life yet there I was capturing house spiders and holding tarantulas within 4 hours. Went in totally skeptical and left mind blown. You owe it to yourself to do this workshop.
I wish I’d had access to a therapy like this years ago! My life is so much better now that I’m phobia-free so I would recommend these workshops to anybody. Don’t fight it alone if you don’t have to!
I thought I wouldn’t hold a spider... I’ve thrown myself across rooms, left the house, cried and had panic attacks... but yesterday a house spider and a tarantula crawled over my hand. The Creature Courage team was really patient and created the atmosphere I needed to feel safe.
Creature Courage has definitely changed my life. The workshops transformed my mind and gave me a lot more freedom. I am now actually planning to visit countries with big spiders that I wouldn’t have considered before.
I cannot recommend this course highly enough... It took me months to pluck up the courage... I went into it petrified of spiders, but thanks to Britain’s knowledge & passion I captured a house spider and even held Wookie the tarantula... It’s an incredible experience... They are to be admired, not feared!
Thank you for changing my life. I could have never even gone near a spider and after your course I held one and I'm so amazed at what a difference this has made!
When I first heard about the day workshop... I was sceptical, but my arachnophobia was gone after the session! I held a tarantula and a house spider... things I never thought I would be able to do! It was great to explore my fears in a safe place... I even felt some empathy and endearment towards the spiders.
I used to cross the street whenever I saw a dog coming towards me. By the end of the session, I was confidently playing fetch with a staffie. Now I really want to get a dog! I never thought that would happen.
Before coming to Creature Courage I was terrified of moths and butterflies. I could not find any other therapist who could help me get exposure. At Creature Courage I got to meet the world’s biggest moth! Now I could never be afraid of the little ones. I have a new respect and awe for these lovely creatures.
I never imagined I would be able to hold a frog. By the end of the session I was doing exactly that. I now see frogs in a completely different way, fascinating, important and even a bit cute!
I was petrified of snakes from a young age. Creature Courage completely transformed my fear. I have a new appreciation of snakes and feel calm and confident around snakes, I was thrilled to hold one and make friends.
I flew all the way from the United States to work with Creature Courage, as I couldn’t find anyone who combined theory and exposure therapy together. By the end I was calmly interacting with many dogs. It completely changed how I feel.
Cockroaches terrified me since I was a little girl. Creature Courage was the only therapist who could help me. I have learned how to move past fear and turn it into fascination. I now even have pet cockroaches and I love them!
I never thought I’d have a cat sitting on my lap. By the end of the session, I was calmly stroking one. The transformation was incredible.

Case Study
The British Tarantula Society Testimonial
After attending one of our workshops Peter Kirk, Chairman of the British Tarantula Society was really impressed and instantly personally endorsed our services and has now gotten us officially endorsed by the British Tarantula Society.
“I have attended a number of Spider Courage sessions run by Britain and her team. Honestly, I thought they were excellent. Very professionally run, full of accurate information about arachnids and extremely successful, tried and tested Neuro-linguistic programming and hypnotherapy techniques.
The spider-handling aspect of the therapy is carried out under carefully controlled and closely monitored conditions with the well-being of the spiders being of primary consideration. I have witnessed first-hand individuals so phobic about spiders that the mere thought of them reduced these people to tears. I have seen the same individuals walk away from the course with that element of their lives changed beyond their wildest imagination!
I have been so impressed with this course that not only have I given it my own personal endorsement, but put it to the BTS Committee who have also, for the first time ever, agreed to endorse this event too.”
