The Awareness Centre

Jennifer has been a therapist to my son since he was in his early teens and has provided him and our family with valuable support throughout some difficult times for him. She built a great rapport with him straight away and it was very helpful for him to have someone he could trust and discuss topics with that he would not necessarily want to raise with his parents.

My son found school challenging and Jennifer helped him to navigate various difficult situations and ultimately to do well in his A Levels and make the move to university. Now, as an older teenager, he is able to recognise when he is starting to feel low and has been fortunate enough that Jennifer has been able to find availability to hold Zoom sessions with him whilst he is some distance away.

I would highly recommend Jennifer as a supportive and empathetic therapist for teenagers and young adults and also as someone who offers helpful suggestions, positive support and encouragement to the wider family.

J.D

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.

Holly was very warm right from the start and I felt I could be completely honest with the thoughts and feelings I had through a very challenging period of changes in my family life. Our weekly sessions gave me an opportunity to take stock of what was happening, acknowledge the pace of change and how I was responding. In fact, I returned to Holly a while later when circumstances became more challenging again as I knew how beneficial it was to have that regular time and space to reflect and clarify my thoughts.

Jennifer has supported my young daughter and this has been a very positive experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jennifer if your child needs some support.

Jess

Having not considered myself a ‘therapy person’ I found it difficult to bring myself to even call up about booking an appointment. I chose a therapist out of a few names provided and honestly everything changed for me once I started my sessions. Lesley was my saving grace in what was probably the toughest year I’ve experience so far in my life; I was apprehensive to share, to admit I didn’t have everything under control or figured out but literally from 15 minutes into my first session all of those feelings melted away and I was able to work through these obstacles in a safe space with the most incredible guide I could have asked for. To describe Lesley’s sessions as life-changing is no exaggeration. I am forever grateful for having found her.

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.
