The Awareness Centre

My short time at The Awareness Centre has been most fruitful. It is a place that from the get-go was warm and friendly. My initial phone call to the centre in order to set up standing appointments was a refreshingly friendly and encouraging experience.

Since I have started 1-to-1 sessions here at the centre, I have found that I am learning more about myself in a safe environment. I find that I feel heard in my sessions but not pandered to or dismissed, which I had not experienced before when I previously sought help.

I would recommend this centre to others seeking therapy, as my experience is very positive.

The Awareness Centre is wonderful – I would recommend it to everyone! It is lovely and quiet and the receptionist is very nice. My counselling was great and I have really improved in myself. Thank you!

Sunah has been my therapist for 3-4 months now. I had a great experience working on myself with her. She is very caring and approachable making it easy for me to trust her and share a lot of personal information as i never felt judged. I look forward to every session with her and time flies by during the session. Above all she has helped me stand up for myself and feel more secure in my thoughts and decisions which is something I have struggled with and am still working on. Anyone would be blessed to have her as a therapist and she means a lot to me.

Sara-Jane is a wonderful therapist. I really valued our sessions. She allowed me space for my thoughts and emotions in a way I never had before. She was not afraid to challenge or be challenged when necessary. And helped me untangle some difficult issues which I have been struggling with for years. I would recommend Sara-Jane to anyone.

We began Couples therapy with Hyacinthos back in September 2023. At the time we were separated. But with the help and intervention of Hyacinthos, we soon realised how deep our love was and how we could actually work through our issues and within a few weeks, we decided to rekindle our relationship. Our journey and self discovery has been incredible and in the short space of time our relationship has grown from strength to strength and we are now happier, than we have ever been as a couple and individually. This is thanks to Hyacinthos and his non judgemental style of therapy and great understanding of relationships and personal development. We both highly recommend Hyacinthos.

I cannot express enough gratitude for Sinthia. From our very first session, I felt seen and understood. I genuinely used to look forward to sessions every week, even though I knew that we would be discussing difficult topics. This was because she created a safe space where I could explore my thoughts and feelings openly and without feeling judged. Through her guidance and kindness, I’ve gained valuable insights to others, developed healthier coping mechanisms, and learned to navigate certain challenges with greater resilience and courage. Thank you Sinthia 🙂

This therapy for me has been instrumental in my emotional healing process, specifically having a therapist like Vas who is empathetic but also can challenge me has helped me grow in many areas of my life and become aware of my behaviours which no longer serve their purpose, whilst also learning to accept and manage the parts of me that may never change.

I was so impressed how quickly everything was put into place, that was very, very helpful. It is my first experience of talking therapies and its been very helpful and I would look towards continuing it and using it again at times when I feel very over-whelmed. Riana has been really good listener and able to remember lots of different things and offer different strategies to manage things better on my own. Many thanks to the service.

The counselling and guidance I received by Joy at the awareness centre has been invaluable and a huge help during a challenging time in my life.

Having been in and out of therapy for many years I found the approach and support to be very helpful and it enabled me to find clarity and the ability to not just face the many challenges in my life but start to deal with them. I am very grateful and would highly recommend Joy to anyone and everyone who would benefit from additional support through therapy. As hard and challenging as it was I always left feeling enlightened and lighter which was a huge lift at a difficult time. I found myself looking forward to the session every week. Thank you Joy.

Nick is a kind, thoughtful, sympathetic, empathetic, humane, experienced and engaged therapist. After we’d talked for some months, he had a crucial insight into my issues which no one had had, and then suggested a course of action which changed my life.

I’m forever indebted to Nick for his help and support, and to The Awareness Centre for bringing us together and giving us a perfect place to talk.

I started my therapy sessions with Jackie in June 2023 after going through a toxic breakup. Initially, I went to therapy to help me heal from my breakup, but I found that the more I was attending sessions, the more I realised I had a lot of emotional turmoil and unhealed generational trauma I needed to work on.

Jackie was patient with me, she listened and helped me compartmentalise what was happening and helped me look at it in a different lens. Since stopping therapy with Jackie, I react better to my triggers, I’ve gained a new sense of confidence and I know what is important to me and what I should focus on. Thank you for everything, Jackie.
