Testimonials

"I had been single for a very long time and I had basically given up hope. My confidence was low and my outlook was bleak. Not very attractive!

I did the “8 Steps to attracting your Ideal Partner™” programme which completely changed my attitude.

This is a structured programme, yet it was highly personalised. Denise took time to get to know me and was open for feedback throughout the programme.

Together with Denise I worked on changing my thinking and my behavior around dating. As a result I am much more open to the possibilities out there. I have a positive outlook now and this emanates out to the world. Denise has often reminded me that dating should be fun and in this way I approach it now.

As part of the programme we have also worked on getting a better awareness on what I am looking for in a relationship and what my needs are. This has helped me tremendously in the ensuing dating process.  I am happy to say that I am now in a serious relationship with a man who seems to be a great match (even though he is quite different to what I used to think my ideal partner would be like)..."

"I first became aware of the services offered by Denise in September 2009 from the Table for Six website and then from various television interviews.

At that stage in my life I was feeling pretty disenchanted with the dating scene and was struggling to find a formulae which would work for me in my search for an enduring relationship. Having never tried the services of a life coach, so to speak, I decided to make contact with Denise and give it a try. At the first meeting we discussed a schedule of regular one to one meetings to review my progress to date, make little changes to my approach and thinking and develop new strategies for my search. 

I combined my work with Denise with some ongoing dating and continued my search. With the tools I learned, in my sessions with Denise, I began to enjoy dating again. This time I had a clearer understanding of what I needed to get my needs met and most of all improved the confidence in myself to believe that I deserved to find a great relationship.

After a number of unsuccessful dates along the way I changed strategy to the point where I was actually meeting the type of women who I actually liked. I was the able to narrow the field down to the one I could actually see being married to. Throughout this process Denise guided, coached and encouraged me in a sensitive way and, on occasion, helped me to reframe my thoughts to see that there was a better way to look at dating and relationships.

I have spent a year with Denise now and have enjoyed every minute of our meetings. I can thoroughly recommend her services to anyone who is sincere in their desire to find that someone special in their lives."

"I first had contact with Denise in September 2008 as I was struggling to find the right girl for me and had lost lots of confidence following my marriage break up years ago.  I was still keen to get  married again if I found the right person but I was hesitant to  approach women, missed lots of opportunities to talk to women, wasn't  sure if someone was interested in me, was really unsure about the steps and etiquette to dating and just not knowing the right sort of  person for me now. 

After working with Denise over the last 9 months I have noticed a huge difference in where I am now.  I am much more confident now and have had lots of interest from women.  But more importantly I am now in a serious relationship with someone very special and don't think I would have got to this point so quickly without Denise."

" I decided to meet personally with Denise after talking with her on the phone. Meeting with her personally confirmed to me what a fabulous and caring person she is. I felt immediately at ease, and we discussed and practised lots of things to help me to come across better. All this is normally off limits for a kiwi man to discuss but I found Denise informative and refreshing. Her comments and directives that were right on the money. I gained more than dating advice, Denise Corlett could be better described as a 'life coach'

Thank you Denise”

"Your coaching helped me tremendously. I knew I wanted relationships with women but I didn't know their priorities well. The encouragement of the steps I was already taking towards improving my dating prospects was the first support of that kind I have ever had.

The stable, objective, professional and almost intimate information was very affirming and educational for me. I simply didn't know some of it. Denise encouraged me to believe that it is not 'bad' to seek relationships.

Some of us want relationships but have trouble making them. You help us by showing us how to go about dating."

"In December last year I met Denise from Dating Advice and left the meeting feeling refreshed and with a more positive outlook. I make up part of the large statistic of lovely, single women in their 30s in Auckland who have returned from another life overseas. Denise’s advice has helped me to be more aware of how I come across to others and has also made me more clued into the non-verbal signals. I am being asked out a lot more and although I am still single, I am enjoying getting out there, meeting people and being more aware of what is going on around me. Thanks Denise for your insights, advice and support!"

“Dating Advice is a fantastic service that really helped me to clarify what I was looking for in a partner. I’m much more confident of who I am and what I want and need out of a relationship because of the time I spent with Denise. Her ability to clarify confusing issues (in love, and life in general) is incredibly valuable and useful – not to mention immediately applicable. Don’t waste any more time, get in front of Denise for a session and sort your single woes out once and for all!”
