Thanks to Merc and her CounterPunch program, our daughter has come on in leaps and bounds over the past couple of years. 

Anxiety being her number one challenge, she has been given the strategies to control and manage these feelings. By listening carefully to her thoughts and understanding what is physically going on with her body when she feels anxious she can use the CounterPunch techniques to refocus the brain by channeling those anxious feelings into a series of physical movements. She also understands why she was feeling the way she was.

As a result, she has empowered herself and taken back a level of control over her life. A hard thing to do when you're a teenager as life often feels out of their own control majority of the time.

Thanks Merc, not only has our daughter got her head above water again, but our family as a whole has benefitted from the experience as we've been educated along the way too. Love your work!

The CounterPunch program really helped me to learn how to deal with my emotions internally, and through that, it gave me a better understanding of how my emotions actually work, which led to a massive improvement on how I was feeling in just my day to day life.

And as I progressed through the CounterPunch program, I had the opportunity to work with some other kids dealing with their own problems.

And from the time I started assisting in the group sessions to when we finished, I saw a massive improvement in things like confidence, communication skills, mental resilience, resistance to negative peer pressure.

Overall, I think the CounterPunch program has helped so many people and I don't know where I'd be today without it.
