Clients Speak

“It was helpful to have definition of my thoughts and feelings, and how to manage control over the direction of my thoughts. My counsellor made me feel at ease. She created an atmosphere of trust, which was a huge leap for me. I appreciate that she drilled down to what was relevant to myself – no time wasted in reaching the points.”

“I was given space and time to process emotions, feelings and tools on how to move forward.”

“I initially found the use of the whiteboard helpful, it externalised what I was thinking, then using a mindmap rather than writing thoughts during wakeful periods was extremely helpful – more structured and constructive. The use of imaging (forest, flowers) was helpful. Thank you!! I thought I might not achieve anything from a session. You knew where to look for the stubborn, hidden stuff.”
