Less worrying, more writing.

You are capable of writing an incredible PhD thesis. Seriously - you are.

But let’s be honest: PhDs are messy. Writer’s block, imposter syndrome, endless drafts... it’s all part of the process (even if no one tells you that).

You don’t have to be perfect. You just need a little support to keep moving forward.

I’m Dr. Elizabeth Yardley, and after 20 years of supporting PhD students through every kind of research challenge, I created these step-by-step guides to help you feel more in control of your thesis - and your confidence - day by day.

These guides will help you become the PhD student who writes with clarity, stays focused, and feels proud of your progress (even on the hard days).

Ready to feel a bit more in control? Let’s go.

And if you’ve got questions, just hit “Contact me” below - I’m here to help.
