My experience with Shirley at The Awareness Centre was a very positive one. Shirley was an amazing therapist, she helped me confront lots of things within myself at a slow and manageable pace. Every therapy session felt as though it was completely in my control as Shirley seemed to follow a client lead approach. I was very impressed with the therapy I received and it has definitely helped me an awful lot. I would recommend Shirley as a therapist to everyone.
Nick created an environment which made me feel extremely comfortable to share things I’d previously found extremely difficult to talk about. He helped me figure out what may be causing the way I’m feeling and approached the problem in a way which resonated for me (logical and curious). Thank you Nick, you helped me enormously.
I’ve been seeing Lisa for over two years now. Over that time she has provided me with a safe space within which to work through some complex feelings after my divorce, the breakup of a subsequent relationship, and a difficult period at work. In her company I’ve felt able to open up, exploring areas of my life and childhood that I haven’t before. Her gentle yet astute lines of questioning have been a mirror, helping me truly see connections and behaviours that had been hidden. Her guidance has been invaluable in prompting me to work between appointments. Throughout, she has reminded me to be kind, to myself, whilst on a journey that has been really important…
My partner and I didn’t know what to expect from couples therapy. I think we thought you only go if you’re about to break up, but the sessions made us closer and more understanding of each other. I would recommend this centre to anyone – especially couples who want a safe space to work through any disagreements.
I’ve had a great experience working with Berenice. She is incredibly supportive, consistent in her approach and flexible with timings when needed. Her guidance has made a real difference and I am looking forward to continuing work with her in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled therapist!
There was never any pressure to talk. It always felt right, easy, and (most importantly) I felt listened to. I’ve found my sessions so useful and counselling has had a very positive impact on my life.
