The Awareness Centre

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.

My therapy sessions have been very effective. I have noticed improvement in my general life and wellbeing. The sessions consist of good constructive conversation and feedback. I feel comfortable, recognised and understood by my therapist.

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.

I started talking to Matthew during a very stressful period of my life and found our conversations really positive and helpful in a variety of ways – without them, I would have found things a lot more difficult. He was really easy to talk to in an honest way without any worry of judgement. Since finishing our meetings I still see the positive impact through an improvement in managing my stress and recalling advice when it comes to judging myself and emotional responses in a less harsh, and more understanding way. I would reccommend Matthew and the Awareness Centre as a whole to anyone who was seeking therapy.

I was looking for a therapist to help me following a trauma. I wasn’t able to eat or sleep and had worry and anxiety. I had lost a significant amount of weight and was continuing to do so, that had begun worrying me further. After several months I wasn’t feeling any better. When I contacted Nick I knew instantly during a free introductory phone call that Nick was someone I could talk to. He made me feel comfortable and safe. Although we could not schedule appointments immediately due to my commitments and his availability I eventually opted to conduct our sessions via what’s app and that worked. I finally had the help I needed. I wish I had opted for that sooner. Nick really listened and with patience. He was skilfully alert to what might help me. He gave me small amounts of food for thought that I could digest and contemplate. He was also solution focused where I couldn’t be, and that enabled me to have a breakthrough and take action that set me free me from my merry-go-round . After that I immediately started to regain my weight and I’m back to normal – perhaps actually in better physical shape. He identified what was holding me back and gave me that incentive to make that shift. Things are so much better for me now. I’ll be forever grateful. I’ve had other counselling therapy and there’s just no comparison. I can’t recommend Nick highly enough.

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!
