I'm so grateful that I was able to find Mia on Harley Therapy. I did sessions with her for 9 months and in that time she genuinely helped to build a lot of vital foundations for healthier thinking for me. Some of the things I most appreciate about Mia are how thoughtful, calm, rational, insightful, and structured she is. I've done therapy here and there over the past decade for my depression, anxiety, and borderline personality, and she's one of the best counsellors that I've had. In the past I've felt a bit lost and directionless with how 'neutral' some therapists are, but Mia provides a lot of clarity as to the best ways and options of approaching issues, and the homework she sets are always very illuminating. She made a real difference in my life.

Really good first appointment. I’ve had serval pycolgist’s, but never felt as understood as I did with Mia.

Only the first session but I felt Mia had insights into my challenges and could help resolve them. I trusted her and felt comfortable

I had 9 sessions with Mia and I believe she is great in her approach. Apart from providing the necessary material and tools for CBT techniques, she is an excellent listener and responds to your comments and behaviours in a non-judgemental way. Her empathetic personality was key for me to accept my circumstances at the time and keep working on my life goals.
