“Kathy is lovely, and really helped me work through and understand an issue I was struggling with.”

“Thank you to Helen. This was a good session for me, I felt heard and seen and I look forward to my next session.”

“Lexy and I have now been having sessions weekly for just over a month and I can see such a difference in myself already. Lexy is non judgemental, professional, warm and open about her own experience. I couldn't recommend her more highly.”

“Wonderfully laid back, professional, friendly and understanding. ”

“When I first reached out to Sarah, I was at such a low point in my life. It seemed I had to hit rock bottom before I decided to get help. Looking back now, it was the lowest point I'd experienced in a decade. My partner could no longer handle the rage I carried with me and our relationship was deteriorating, my normal tactics to stay emotionally afloat had stopped working. My past trauma, that stuck to me for years, had reached its pinnacle and I was done with it. When my transformative sessions with Sarah began, it felt like the first time I'd ever been properly heard and understood by someone. The reassuring kindness that she exuded in each session set the example for me to be kinder to myself. She made me aware of the cruel self-talk narrative in my head and allowed me to see that what had happened in my life wasn't my fault and that my struggles were valid. The rage I held onto when I first came to Sarah has now gone and I'm noticeably calmer and kinder to myself and those around me. Although I'm still on a journey of self-discovery, after my sessions with Sarah I've never been more sure of who I am. My relationship with my partner is the strongest it's ever been and the relief I feel knowing I'm fine just the way I am is a revelation. Sarah's approach of guiding you through your past to confront your pain is kind, comforting and caring. She's with you every step of the way and her reassuring smile instantly makes you feel like you're in warm, safe and capable hands. I couldn't recommend her enough; if you're wanting to change your life for the better, talk to Sarah. ”

“I started to attend therapy sessions with Sandra after my dad died in June 2020. I immediately knew that Sandra was a good fit for me- she's kind, she's caring and is a great listener. In the time I have seen her I have moved forward so much and been able to move forward greatly in other areas of my life too. I would really recommend Sandra as a counsellor for anybody in need of one.”

“When I first came to see Tej, I was experiencing what I considered as anxiety, depression and severe mood swings, which constantly affected my relationships and self-esteem. I had previously worked with therapists and medical psychiatrists who had prescribed me with antidepressants and had done some short term talk therapy with me without getting to the root of the problems, which only had confirmed my initial belief that there is something fundamentally wrong with my psyche, backed by variant rushed diagnosis and drug prescriptions, making me feel stuck in a dark place thinking it would never go away. I did not make sense of my mood swings and had a firm belief that I would never be able to have a normal, healthy or sustainable relationship and connection with anyone in my romantic, professional or even family life. After weekly sessions with Tej for a couple of months, I started to see a massive change in my view of my relational patterns, which had started since childhood and carried on until now. I learnt to be an observer of these patterns which enabled me to actively change them. I came to the realisation that I have been mismanaging them by long term use of antidepressants, which I believed I’d never be able to cut down, and substances like caffeine. All the factors leading to my low moods made more and more sense with this approach and by carrying on with the therapy and talking through these with Tej, I started seeing life changing improvements a couple of months after that. The most helpful tip I could offer anyone re what to expect when working with Tej is to trust the process. She has a kind and supportive presence and does make the therapy session a judgment-free and soothing space, which makes it much easier to open up. It does not take a long time to start seeing significant positive changes after starting the therapy, which would transform one’s life long term. She has an in-depth knowledge of attachment theories which can be seen as result of these sessions, however she never overwhelmed me with any terminologies or technical terms, which made the connection really easy and talking to her felt like chatting to a friend. Based on my previous experiences with various therapists, I had an ideal of a perfect therapy and healing process in mind, which believed would never happen but was proven possible this time. I have managed to cut down the dose of my antidepressants significantly in these challenging times of pandemic and have learnt to let go of unrealistic fears. I now have a clear perception of myself in relation to others which helps me to understand my feelings and theirs better and more compassionately. I can now see possibilities of having a healthy and functional family of my own which I always considered impossible. The constant support, patience and emotional care I have received through therapy lead me to discover my patterns of thinking and behaviour and be assured that I am capable of loving and being loved and supported. It has helped me to alter my internal dialogue in a positive way and has made me improve my family and work relations. Finally, It has made life a more beautiful and brighter concept for me and has revised my prior believes of therapy being a painful and dark process. I have Improved my life in unimaginative ways and strongly believe that the world would be a more benevolent place if more people went through this process with Tej.”
