When I first started therapy, I was struggling with body image, low confidence, and depression. I spoke to myself so negatively and felt completely stuck. Working with my therapist has truly changed my life. I’ve learned to be kinder to myself, my confidence has grown so much, and I no longer carry the same heavy, negative thoughts. I feel lighter, happier, and finally at peace with who I am.
Berenice is a wonderful therapist who is genuine in her compassion, and a total professional who can help you move through feelings with a depth of knowledge on her technical practice whilst handling emotions carefully.
I am so grateful to have found The Awareness Centre, it has helped through some tough times and the support of my counsellor has allowed me to regain confidence in myself and life. I would recommend if anyone feels they need to talk through anything, here is definitely the place to do so. Thank you.
I felt very lost and hopeless when I started seeing Lesley. Our weekly sessions helped me to understand and accept my past. I am now a new me, who deals better with anxiety and enjoys life. I highly recommend Lesley to anyone seeking therapy.
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 started therapy really down and broken I was overly anxious about everything big and small, through the course of our time together Valeria has really helped me understand my feelings and emotions better, she’s has recommend literature and meditation practices that have helped see the bigger picture when I start to get down or depressed. I am an overall better person now my relationships with those closer to me has improved because I am not so self involved (or at least I try not to be) and my relationship with myself has also improved as I try to be kinder to myself. What a life changing experience, couldn’t have done it without Valeria.
