The Awareness Centre

Riana put me at ease from the first consultation and really took time to understand what i wanted to accomplish from our counselling sessions. She has helped me understand my self concept and limiting beliefs that have stemmed from childhood. She provided written resources that I could use to further my understanding of what i was experiencing . We got to grips with how to turn things around with my thought processes. Whilst this is work in progress for me, i am

Definitely more confident within myself and have a better awareness of how to turn my thoughts around when they are negative. Riana has helped me immensely to accept the past for what it is but not let it define who i am today. I have a high regard for her professionalism and expertise in being able to pin point and draw out my thoughts and emotions and my own awareness of how to change them to positive. I have no hesitation in recommending Riana to anyone considering counselling.

I cannot thank Lara for the counselling services she provided. I was dealing with relationship issues and life decisions and she enabled me to understand why everything links back to knowing and understanding your values. In a period of 4 months she helped me understand myself, my emotions and thoughts which in turn improved my relationships. Thank you!

Bernie has been really good so far, her approach is very open and calming and I have felt very comfortable in her presence.

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.

I attended 6 weeks of face to face counselling sessions with Ann at the Awareness Centre during a period of heightened worry and anxiety in my life as a result of various family problems. I really feel that this process of having the space to explore what had happened to me and the feelings that I experienced as a result of this, was invaluable. I felt re-assured and was helped to see something of how I had carried patterns of behaviour that had resulted in a period of overload and crisis. I am very grateful to Ann for her insight and her skill in supporting me.

Sara-Jane is a wonderful therapist. I really valued our sessions. She allowed me space for my thoughts and emotions in a way I never had before. She was not afraid to challenge or be challenged when necessary. And helped me untangle some difficult issues which I have been struggling with for years. I would recommend Sara-Jane to anyone.
