Britain Stelly

Hi, I’m Britain – founder of Creature Courage and the UK’s leading specialist in animal phobia therapy.

For nearly a decade, I’ve been helping people overcome deep-rooted fears and anxiety using a unique blend of creative therapy and neuroscience-based techniques. My goal has always been to empower individuals to reclaim their confidence, and I’m incredibly proud that our work has transformed the lives of thousands of clients – often in just a single day. You can see tesimonials from our Very Happy Cusotmers here.

I specialise in animal phobia therapy, anxiety coaching, and therapeutic creativity. I’m a fully qualified life coach accredited with the ICF (International Coaching Federation), and I combine this expertise with a background in therapeutic workshop facilitation and animal care.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of sharing our work on platforms like Good Morning Britain, Sky News, BBC Radio 2, ITV, and The Daily Mail – raising awareness of how quickly and powerfully phobias can be treated with the right support.

I’ve also contributed to academic research. My paper, “The Journey of a Hero and Sustainable Development,” is published in the World Review of Entrepreneurship, Management and Sustainable Development by Inderscience Publishers..

Before founding Creature Courage, I spent over a decade running a creative therapy charity, helping people build confidence through expressive group work. I’ve also worked with the YMCA delivering Creative Wellness workshops focused on reducing stress and improving mental health through imagination and reflection.

On a personal note, I’ve been fascinated by the animal kingdom since childhood. I have over 20 years of experience in exotic animal husbandry – and yes, that includes spiders, snakes, and even an albino skunk who curls up on my lap every day! I believe that understanding creates compassion, and compassion is the first step in overcoming fear.

If you’re struggling with an animal phobia, please know you’re not alone – and that fear isn’t fixed. It’s learned. And that means it can be unlearned. I’d love to help you discover just how strong and brave you already are. If you feel inspired to change your animal journey from fear to fascinaiton, I’d love to talk about how you can do that..
