The Awareness Centre recommended a private therapist to me. I am so grateful for this. I have been seeing this therapist now for well over a year and it has been very extremely good. Without this support, I don’t think I would’ve managed to deal with my situation.
I met with Matt, weekly, over the course of a year and we worked through relationship difficulties, family struggles and personal battles of mine. Through open conversation, Matt offered tools and skills to help me understand myself and look at my patterns of behaviour. Almost a year out of therapy I feel I know myself better and continue to draw on these tools.
I have never had this kind of experience but find this really helpful and helps me alot and in different way. Im grateful to come to therapy and it changed my life.
Due to my life circumstances I knew I would only be able to have a very short course of therapy – I am so glad I was matched with Jill; I gained an outsized amount of new insight in our sessions. I found Jill to be very warm in her style and I felt comfortable opening up to her from the outset – she was an incredibly supportive listener as I wept through her box of tissues in our first session! I also particularly appreciated that in our sessions she went beyond just listening to an extent that not all therapists I have seen in the past have done – Jill asked specific follow-up questions to get me to explore and drill down into deeper layers of self-awareness – and she offered challenge, and, when appropriate, her own wise opinion, which I found really beneficial. I finished the sessions with a feeling of having shored up my resilience for approaching life-changes, and with some new behavioral / mindset interventions to put into practice to enhance my experience of day-to-day life. I would definitely recommend Jill as a therapist.
A welcoming safe space to talk about any issues. Therapy has helped me to identify my thoughts, emotions and behaviours, and to improve aspects of my life. It has helped me through a crisis and is also helping me to reflect on my past.
