IT WORKS!!

The linden method certainly helped me through a difficult time with anxiety 3 years ago. I enjoyed the fact that it worked to remove the anxiety rather than just cope like traditional methods do. I had spent £800 pounds receiving sessions from a hypnotherapist. I noticed the same few people complain that this is a money grabbing scheme but a once off payment works out cheaper than constant suffering and navigating your way through life. I would highly recommend you try for yourself first before you listen to negativity and ignore the naysayers. A lot of people have had success with the linden method.

Be extremely careful

My daughter has just returned from a 3 day retreat in a dreadful state. Told to stop all meds and not to discuss her anxiety with anyone not even her doctor. People there who were suicidal and whose parents had borrowed the £3000 to send them. Not one thought they had been helped. These people are not medically trained as far as I am aware and I believe this whole thing is a money making dangerous scheme.

Would give minus stars if it were possible

My partner signed up and paid for the online anxiety course when she was at her lowest. The first webinar she joined she asked Charles Linden for some advice on how she could improve her mental state of mind only to be told to come off her meds completely and just watch the webinars!!
When she reached out to the Facebook page for some guidance on where to find some modules on grief due to recently losing our dog (her best friend) she was told that she was not on their system. When they eventually found her and she asked again she was blocked by them!
Don’t waste your money! They prey on vulnerable people

This programme is not helpful at all

This programme is not helpful at all. It basically charges you alot of money to tell you that keeping busy and never giving your mind time to rest is the way to get past anxiety! do not purchase

Psychotherapist warning

As a psychotherapist who specialises in anxiety disorders (and an ex sufferer) I went through this programme with a professional eye.

What this programme propagates is often counterproductive and, for some, quite dangerous. It’s been clearly designed by someone who hasn’t trained professionally and has no awareness of ethics. It’s atrocious.

I’ve also heard serious concerns from my clients about the retreats, with stories of coercion, aggression and pressure to leave reviews for this scheme.

Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. Thankfully there’s motions in the UK that will begin to crackdown on this unethical practice.

The Linden Method certainly worked for me. Please do not believe the negative reviews. It was money well spent. The medical profession did not help me, in fact my GP actually exacerbated the condition by testing me for all manor of ailments so I ended up being scared of doctor's - had never been like that before in my life! Read all the testimonials about Linden method, too

Gave me life!

Not just saved my life, but created one! Without The Linden Method I’d probably still be stuck in my old apartment too afraid to live! I can’t stress this enough, if you follow the method it DOES WORK!

Absolutely THE SOLUTION

After years of searching and hopelessly trying to find an "answer" to the anxiety I experienced, I finally found the Linden Method. Charles lays out a path to healing, hope and life beyond the fog of anxiety. It's simple to implement and then you let your brain do the rest and bring your body to a place of equilibrium and peace. There is life on the other side of it and it is beautiful

Anxiety is a very personal experience and we do not have "one cap fits everyone" if we did life MAY be less complicated for us.

I feel that Charles and his team are passionate about supporting and understanding individual needs and supplying tools that will enable us to move forward more positively. Thank you very much for everything, it is a great comfort to know that I have your full support going forward!

P.S. I find it quite strange that all the negative comments arrived at the exact same time!

The best decision we ever made

I attended one of the linden method retreats as the plus one guest with my father who was suffering really badly. As the plus one I got to attend and participate in almost every activity with my father. What these guys are doing is truly remarkable! I could t believe the change in my father and everyone who attended the retreat. From the first moments of arrival seeing these poor souls suffering so much I found it hard to believe there could be much hope for any vast improvement in the space of a few days. How wrong I was! The last meal of the last day we all got to interact and the energy was electric! I found it very emotional, seeing my father almost back to his old self, and witnessing the complete change in people’s Personalities from how they arrived! The place felt full of smiles and positivity. It was incredible! I would highly recommend this if you are suffering! I’ve had several friends who have used the linden method pack to recover with very positive results. which is why I took my dad to the retreat.
The team were amazing.

Don’t believe the bad reviews

I just returned from the 4 day retreat. The Linden Method works. The team are incredible and the transformation not only in myself but in the entire group was incredible. The journey has started for us and will continue but anyone who puts this team down and says it’s a scam and doesn’t work, I do question if they actually went or if they are practitioners angry at the fact that they’ll lose their regular customers as this does not help you to “cope” with anxiety, it helps you CURE it.

I am already a different person and will continue to grow.

Thank you to the team, but a massive shout out to Jackie.

Don’t believe these reviews, talk to people who have actually been there.

I was promised a cure for anxiety and spent 3.5k on the retreat. It actually sent me backwards as I had anxiety through stress and burnout and his method of keeping busy 100% of your day with lots of activities that distract you was counterproductive and made me worse.

My experience with the Linden Method.

I bought this because he says he can cure you of anxiety, OCD, phobias, etc… for good. He wants you to distract yourself and also tells you to get a hobby. He puts down all therapy such as hypnosis, CBT, ERP, EMDR and talking therapy. He of course has his pillars which tells you not to talk about anxiety. He never really helped. He is also against meditation. I actually felt worse after the Method.
