I worked with Anna over the course of 8 counselling sessions and I have found these sessions extremely helpful. Anna set some clear objectives and an initial timeline for our work together. She was professional but also friendly and approachable so I found myself at ease very quickly and was able to share more and more over our sessions together.

I felt that Anna genuinely cared about my story and while she was a wonderful listening ear, she also gave me ideas and avenues to explore in order to move forward, by interpreting how my past experiences may have shaped the person I am now and the challenges I sometimes struggle with. Her warmth and her absolute belief that anyone can change and have a healthier relationship with themselves was a great comfort to me.

After 8 sessions, I find myself with some great tools to move forward and achieve the change I am seeking. Anna has taught me that the most important thing of all is being kind and patient to myself and I am very glad I worked with her. I would be completely happy to recommend Anna to anyone who is looking for a good counsellor.

This has been my first experience of therapy and Claire has really helped me in my journey to better process the personal circumstances I have been going through. This has been through providing a safe space where I feel comfortable to discuss my emotions, as well as suggesting practices which help to manage these. I have found Claire to be extremely professional and good at what she does, and I would highly recommend Claire to anyone else looking to undertake therapy.

We met with Nick for a few sessions during a very testing time in our 15-year marriage. Nick provided a safe space for us to talk and he enabled each of our voices to be heard. Nick was calm, patient and thoughtful, allowing us time to process what was going on which resulted in us finding a way forward together.

Nick was a great therapist that really challenged my perspective of self. He provided a safe environment for me to explore traumatic experiences and was always supportive, gentle and kind. He was always very approachable and always said the correct thing.

I’m so grateful to have found Laura. She has such a warm, human approach that makes it easy to open up and work through challenges. Feeling heard and supported is really important to me, and she creates a space where I feel completely safe and understood. Her guidance has already made such a difference in my life, and I’m excited to continue this journey with her. I truly appreciate her care and expertise and would recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and effective therapist.

I have previously worked with a few different counsellors at various stages in my life and Emma is the counsellor that I have worked with most consistently. I feel comfortable and supported and we have discussed realistic options for what the sessions will achieve. Emma is compassionate and insightful. Moreover, I appreciate the different approaches she incorporates into our sessions, whether it be Mindfulness-based techniques or ACT. My experience in the sessions with Emma has been evolving based on the use of different approaches and she helps me feel confident in challenging my perspectives and opening out how I think about some things in my life.
