Real experiences from clients who found support and healing with our therapists.
“Jessica was very kind, insightful and understanding, and made it very easy to open up to her. She helped us start talking constructively about things that had got too difficult to broach.”
“Jessica was exactly what we needed at the right time. Our marriage was in a bad place, and she really guided us, in a neutral way, to see where we were disconnecting and how we could work together to save our relationship. Thanks to Jessica our marriage is better than it’s ever been - always very grateful to how she brought us back to each other.”
“Sian is an amazing counsellor. She listens well, allows both sides to communicate, is honest and is very good at analysing the underlying issues to get to the root cause of it, which is absolutely necessary in order to start addressing the real problem. I felt a safe space with her. Before the first session, things were hanging on its last hinge. By the end of the first session, things turned around. Communication was much improved as there was better understanding of each other. I would highly recommend her service and would also use her again. I only wish I had found her sooner!”
“Sian’s support has had a profound impact on my life. She helped me reflect honestly on every aspect of my life and understand how my actions and decisions had affected the people I love most. With her professional, compassionate and impartial guidance, she helped me and my family work through some incredibly difficult issues and, most importantly, helped us find a way forward together. Her ability to provide a safe and non judgemental space allowed me to be completely honest with myself and take responsibility for the things I needed to change. I am enormously grateful to Sian for her guidance, understanding and professionalism. Her help has made a genuine and lasting difference to both me and my family.”
“Sian helped me and my partner work through our constant arguments. She helped us clearly define which behaviours and issues were causing us to disagree. And then helped us find a resolution and understand each other's viewpoint. I can confirm and say confidently that Sian helped save our relationship. Thank you Sian.”
“Rose has been excellent. She is a great listener, stays calm and collected. Is great at clarifying the situation and is helping us work towards some much needed improvements in our shared communication. Very grateful we made this investment in our relationship. We continue to use Rose and recommend her.”
“Both my partner and I (who don't agree on much!) really liked Daniel's approach. Daniel is good at reading between the lines and bringing unsaid things out into the open. He helped us have much franker conversations than we ever managed on our own.”
“My wife and I had couples therapy with Denese over the course of 9 months. We appreciated Denese's mix of listening, interpretation, and guidance. It helped us see our problems more clearly and she gave helpful suggestions for us to try. I'm happy to say that we are now in a better place.”
“Sian was a great help to us, she made me feel really at ease and able to open up, she listened and I felt she really took the time to understand me and our relationship, but also was able to offer constructive advice which I have been able to implement and has been really helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to see her again for sessions in the future.”
“I value every session with Dan, because it always leaves me with a sense of clarity and the ensuing "lightness of being." I appreciate the very practical approach, the fact that he is frank, and will not always tell me what I want to hear, but rather what I need to hear.”
“She was engaged and I felt very held in our sessions”
“I would recommend Janine, she’s very patience and fair, I found her sessions extremely valuable for couples but also a solo counselling session I had myself”
“Claire has been an excellent therapist and guide to navigating our relationship”
“Janine was kind, thoughtful and supportive in our experience, helping us navigate very difficult and complicated issues in our relationship.”
“My husband and I came to Deborah as we were experiencing challenges in our marriage. Deborah was easy to talk to, and always had practical suggestions to our emotional struggles. She guided us to remove blame from the equation and focus on respect and understanding even when views were quite different. After 6 months we feel like a completely different relationship, based on trust, respect and a deeper understanding of each other. For that we are incredibly grateful.”
“Stephanie is brilliant at listening and guiding and helping to identify the issues that need to be addressed - I cannot recommend her highly enough (and already have!)”
“Andrew helped me and my partner work through some difficult issues and got us to a much more comfortable place. Love and trust restored. Thank you Andrew!”
“Andrew is very good and professional. It was great working with him and recommendi”
“Jessica was very personable and made us both feel very comfortable and able to speak about what we wanted without judgement and to talk freely First time for us as a couple ao quote daunting prior but as soon as we sat down Jessica was amazing and made a painful process so much better Looking forward to booking again to help us on our journey”
“This has been one of the best things I have done for us as a couple. Not all couple counselling is to repair, some are to strengthen bonds and that is exactly what I did. Almost like going to the gym so that I don't have to go to the doctor. Katrina is a great relationship gymnastics instructor! We were able to understand where our strengths are and where the weakness is and we came out of this stronger. My parter and I grew up in different cultures hence bridging that gap was done beautifully by Katrina and the personalised emails detailing healing steps, understanding situation etc and useful toolkits to navigate life are worth everything. As a millennial I am proud to be actively taking action to improve our married life and mental health and Katrina has been an important part of that journey.”
“I had a really positive experience with my therapist. She made us feel comfortable, listened without judgment, and created a safe space where we could openly share my thoughts and feelings. They were patient, compassionate, and offered practical strategies that helped me better understand myself and manage difficult situations. Claire showed empathy and compassion and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and effective therapist.”
“We were nervous but from our very first session, Sian instantly put us at ease. She never took sides and helped us understand each other’s perspective in a way we hadn’t managed before. We communicate so much better now and would highly recommend her!”
“We were close to giving up on our relationship when we started counselling. Sian helped us rebuild trust, improve our communication and understand the patterns we kept falling into. Every session felt worth every penny, we can’t thank her enough!”
“What an absolute gem! Janine's ability to draw issues out of us both and address them in a sensitive manor, making us self reflect and raise awkward topics is fantastic.”
“Michelle is knowledgeable, so can use whatever therapeutic approach is needed in any given moment, this makes sessions dynamic and interesting. She has a good understanding of neurodiversity which is particularly helpful to us - our family is full of neurodiversity! We have found her very helpful, she challenges us in the right way and knows how to support us to get the best out of our marriage.”
“Brilliant, responsive, flexible and very helpful - thank you!”
“Jessica has really helped me understand myself better and how my actions and mindset can affect my relationship. She is able to see both sides of a situation which has helped me navigate situations more effectively.”
“Excellent. Janine was very attentive and shrewd, and help us make positive progress. Note that we have already left fuller feedback reponse to anearlier request from OCC.”
“Claire has been amazing. She is professional, caring, and has helped us more than we ever expected. Thank you much.”
“Exceptionally insightful, clear, careful yet efficient leading me to self revelations and understanding triggers, nervous system responses and SO much more. I cannot recommend more highly.”
“Ellen is a fantastic therapist! She helped us so much. Thank you!”
“Claire is an excellent therapist and helped me and my partner overcome some serious issues. Thank you so much Claire :)”
“We can’t thank Sian enough for helping us through such a difficult time. She created a calm, balanced environment where we both felt heard and understood. The practical advice and gentle guidance have made a real difference to our relationship.”
