The Awareness Centre

I began seeing Sylvia about 2 months ago. From the first session, Sylvia made me feel heard and understood. The environment made me feel extremely safe and very relaxed. I was able to open up to her in a way I’ve never done before and she really helped me put all the pieces back together with regards to my past anxieties. She really took the time to listen to me about past family issues and other personal issues and made me understand myself more. I have truly gained so much more confidence in myself and understand why I was the way I was and she has helped me to use my voice in such a positive way. I would highly recommend Sylvia because she really dedicates her time to listen and is so supportive. Working with Sylvia was one of the best decisions I have made.

My sessions with Ann have become an invaluable tool in helping me understand myself and how I feel about the events that are taking place within and around my life. I look forward to unpacking the thoughts, feelings and events of a given week in her session, knowing that I will leave with a clearer contextualisation for them and their interconnectedness. Ann creates a space where you feel comfortable to take the time to articulate what you’re going through, giving room for you to reach answers for yourself but also she knows when to prod and unpack things more deeply. I also appreciate how well she remembers the events and relationships in my life, rarely do I have to repeat things we’ve covered which helps maintain my train of thought and allows the most to be gained from each session. Importantly, I feel safe in her room to share that which is most private in my life. In my time working with her I have learnt more about myself, my motivations and the root of certain patterns of behaviour.

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.

My partner and I didn’t know what to expect from couples therapy. I think we thought you only go if you’re about to break up, but the sessions made us closer and more understanding of each other. I would recommend this centre to anyone – especially couples who want a safe space to work through any disagreements.

Valeria is a wonderful counsellor. I cannot speak highly enough about her. She’s really been helping me deal with my issues of my problems.

Riana was very easy to talk to and put me at ease from the initial consultation. We worked on areas of my self concept and limiting beliefs and how this was rooted back to childhood. Riana helped me understand my triggers and how to identify them, analyse and change my way of thinking. Within 6 sessions i felt so much more confident in being able to address my issues and i know this is ongoing work in progress. Riana is honest, caring and very professional in her approach and genuinely wants the best for her clients. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone considering counselling. I know that if ever i needed to return to therapy, she would be the ideal counsellor for me.
