The Awareness Centre

This therapy for me has been instrumental in my emotional healing process, specifically having a therapist like Vas who is empathetic but also can challenge me has helped me grow in many areas of my life and become aware of my behaviours which no longer serve their purpose, whilst also learning to accept and manage the parts of me that may never change.

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.

I worked with Joy whilst I was having some difficulties with work relationships and dealing with problems with my family. Joy was really attentive, a great listener and really helped me. I always felt at ease and comfortable, and I highly recommended her.

I had never experienced a talking therapy before so was a new experience for me. I had imagined it would be directional with the therapist telling me what to do to get better. Over the weeks. I came to realise the better approach is to find the strength in yourself.

The counselling and guidance I received by Joy at the awareness centre has been invaluable and a huge help during a challenging time in my life.

Having been in and out of therapy for many years I found the approach and support to be very helpful and it enabled me to find clarity and the ability to not just face the many challenges in my life but start to deal with them. I am very grateful and would highly recommend Joy to anyone and everyone who would benefit from additional support through therapy. As hard and challenging as it was I always left feeling enlightened and lighter which was a huge lift at a difficult time. I found myself looking forward to the session every week. Thank you Joy.

I was referred to The Awareness Centre via the NHS and worked with Tom during my 12 weeks. At first I was initially a bit hesitant on what therapy would entail, but straight away Tom made me feel comfortable and we developed a strong trust during our time. Tom leads his sessions with grace and a strong emotional intention by asking the right questions and getting you to explore connections between your past and present actions. Since our sessions I can already see a difference in building self confidence and self esteem. I encourage anyone who is curious about counselling and wants to prioritise their mental health to work with Tom!
