Being able to voice views and ideas that are consistent to an unbiased person that can guide you along the way to piecing things together is possibly the best thing I’ve done.

I attended Shirley, to treat me for PTSD, which I had for 2 years. It had gotten to crisis point. The guidance and help I received from Shirley was exceptional. Shirley introduced me to EMDR, which worked incredibly well for me. She guided me through each step and checked in with me at all times. I was amazed at how quickly I came to terms with the trauma that brought me to be treated by Shirley. I am continuing with good mental health, and am very grateful for Shirley’s expertise and professional skills. I have had therapy sporadically over a long period of time and would rate Shirley as being one of the best. I would highly recommend her therapeutic skills and knowledge.
Nick is an excellent listener and really helped me to find balance and perspective in the issues I was dealing with. I could trust him to meet me with compassion but also offer challenges when necessary.
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.
Had a good experience with The Awareness Centre when my son did some counselling with Magda Florek in preparation for secondary school. Her approach through art worked really well with our son, who is on the quiet side, and she had some practical advice and reassuring commentary at the end of our round of sessions.
Valeria is a wonderful counsellor. I cannot speak highly enough about her. She’s really been helping me deal with my issues of my problems.
