The Awareness Centre

Esmie has been a godsend to us, at a most challenging time for my teenage son. She took time to listen and understand what was needed. I felt heard by her. In a relatively short time of working with him she has managed to gain his trust and allow him to open up, in a way that other therapists haven’t been able to do after a year of therapy. She has supported me through this process generously taking the time to feedback when appropriate so that I can best support my son through his difficulties. Because of her he will finally get the right help he needs which means he will be able to move forward and thrive managing the situation appropriately. Esmie has been so accommodating to fit around the difficulties we had with fitting in sessions due to shared custody arrangement. She has made easy work of navigating this process with our fraught & challenging back ground. Her professional but compassionate approach to this work has meant I feel safe in the knowledge my son is in safe hands.

I brought my 7 year old son for a session with Esmie and it immediately unlocked all his worries. The way she handled him (and me) with care, humour but also practicality meant we went away from the session with both him and me feeling that we’d had a major breakthrough. He asked if he could go back again because he liked her so much!

I have found my experience with my therapist at The Awareness Centre very helpful and valuable. Berenice is very warm and engaging and has taught me lots of helpful techniques around managing and easing an anxious attachment style, forming healthier habits, communicating effectively, boosting confidence and self-esteem, and navigating big life changes. I had put off attending therapy for a long time but I’m very glad I took the plunge and booked some sessions as it’s been invaluable.

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!

Emma created an environment of trust and care from my first session, making me feel that I was able to be honest and open in our discussions.  This coupled with astute insight and thoughtful technique have lead to impactful shifts in my day to day life.

I have been doing therapy for just under 6 months with Berenice. She helped me navigate through some traumatic events, and given me amazing tools to deal with pressure and anxiety. I value our weekly sessions so so much and I always feel like we tackle my issues practically and effectively.

Berenice is a thoughtful, insightful, supportive and empathetic therapist, who is also willing to challenge me on things when it is necessary. I would highly recommend Berenice to anyone.
