Britain Stelly

Hi, I am the founder of Creature Courage, the UK’s leading animal phobia specialists.  For nearly a decade, I have been helping thousands of people break free from phobias and anxieties with my creative and unique therapeutic workshops.  Using the power of neuro-science, I am dramatically helping people overcome life limiting anxiety, stress and worry.

I specialises in animal phobia therapy, anxiety coaching and therapeutic creativity. I am a fully qualified life coach with the ICF, specialising in anxiety. Due to the international success of Creature Courage, I have been featured on the media several times with appearances on Good Morning Britain, Sky News, BBC Radio 2, ITV, The Daily Mail, and many more.

By uniquely combining several different therapeutic techniques, I have create a more holistic and well rounded approach to animal phobia therapy and anxiety coaching. This has given Creature Courage its incredibly high success rate, of which I am very proud of!

I am also a published academic writer for the World Review of Entrepreneurship, Management and Sustainable Development. My paper is ‘The Journey of a Hero and Sustainable Development’ published by Inderscience Publishers. You can check it out in more detail HERE.

Previous Experience:

I gained my experience as a therapist running a charity for over a decade that focused on helping people build confidence and explore themselves in creative group therapy settings.  

I am also a passionate animal lover with over twenty years of experience in exotic animal husbandry. My vast knowledge of the animal kingdom is helping many people exchange fear for fascination. I am especially passionate and knowledgeable about animals usually feared and misunderstood such as spiders. I have a mini zoo at my home full of exotic animals, including an albino skunk that snuggles on my lap every day!

I have also worked with the YMCA to deliver Creative Wellness workshops. These sessions helped people achieve positive breakthroughs in their mental health by learning new creative ways to address stress and explore new outlooks on life. This workshop has been hugely successful and are being expanded to different parts of the country.

I work in all aspects of hypnosis. I works with clients to tackle issues such as phobias, anxiety, addictions and confidence.
