Therapist Reviews

Simon is a calming presence; he slows down the fast pace of life and has a soothing, kind tone. This has helped me to step back from problems, dial down racing thoughts, and view issues with greater clarity, objectivity and kindness. He explains concepts clearly and gets to the root of the issues quickly. We have focused on mindfulness, early years experiences/relationships, establishing boundaries, self-esteem and building a sense of self.

Malgorzata is a wonderful therapist who is extremely patient, easy to talk to and has great advice and techniques which helped me immensely. I would highly recommend her.

James is easy to talk to, listens well, and is not judgemental. He helped me come to my own realisations about my problems and offered many practical solutions to specific issues I was having, as well as looking back to the past to see where those issues came from in the first place. Overall I greatly recommend James as a therapist.

Simon was easy to talk to and held a very compassionate space for me.

Caring, relatable and approachable. Very helpful with strategies that are manageable to put into practice.

Made me feel at ease.

Peter provided a warm, compassionate, and understanding environment. During our work he helped me overcome and understand past behaviours and recognise and understand my emotions, until even the difficult emotions became OK to experience. Perhaps the biggest strength of our work was how he helped me realise and unlock my potential. The evidence of this is how my quality of life has improved exponentially since our work began and ended. I will look back and draw strength from our sessions for many years to come. Thank you, Peter.

Very easy to talk to and a great listener. Highly recommend!

Sharareh is an excellent therapist, from the first time I met with her she has been patient, inspiring and full of positive and constructive methods that have enabled me to navigate through a difficult period in my life, her expertise has been very much welcomed and appreciated.

She’s lovely. One thing that I have with therapists is being able to open up to them and feel safe. She's great to talk to and offers a lot of insight.

I cannot recommend Jane highly enough. She has literally saved my life multiple times. Furthermore, she has given me the tools I need to save myself in future.

Cyrous has a very calm and understanding demeanour and it is extremely easy to discuss any topic with him. He has made me look at issues in a new light and a positive manner and I will continue to have many sessions going forward.

Jan has been a very helpful therapist. She is very easy to talk to and I feel that I can open up to her easily. I always feel like I have made progress after our sessions.

Clive helps to create an environment where you are able to discuss your fears and insecurities without feeling like you are being judged. His calm, reassuring nature helps to offer both security and guidance to face your issues and see a path out of them.

Malgorzata (Gosia) is very warm and empathetic. I immediately felt comfortable speaking with her and feel grateful for how easy she made it. She asked the right questions and helped guide me towards a deeper understanding of myself. Her style is quite flexible, in that it varies depending on what I wanted to cover. We did a lot of inner child work which involved recounting experiences and envisioning them. I feel I have come a long way in 16 sessions and would recommend Gosia to anyone on their healing journey. Really happy with my experience!

Christina has always been extremely supportive throughout my journey and very reassuring which has helped massively with my self-development. Her approach is very caring and she is very passionate about helping people through difficult times by using self-love techniques to grow self-esteem. Since having therapy, I am able to cope better with stress and manage my compulsive behaviour so that it's not self-destructive anymore. I am happier in myself day-to-day thanks to Christina's support and guidance. I would definitely recommend seeing Christina.

Joanne is very easy to talk to and made me feel very comfortable talking about my personal issues I was having. She has helped me to set boundaries in my life and relationships which I’m very grateful for.

Deborah is always adapting to my needs and has helped me recognise patterns in myself and helped me to work on them. Deborah has helped me grow as a person by being both supportive and helping me to establish goals for my sessions so I get the most from her services. She is very kind and supportive and I have come so far since we first began our sessions.

Louise is very understanding and patient. I felt like we built up a good therapeutic relationship throughout our sessions. She helped me a lot and made me look at my situation from a different perspective. She made me feel comfortable straight away even though I was very nervous during our first couple of sessions. I feel like Louise has supported me throughout the sessions and helped me overcome my problems.

Cyrous is absolutely wonderful to speak to. He is extremely experienced in what he does, and whilst I was sceptical at first since it’s so daunting to make the decision of finding a therapist, I instantly started to realize he had the experience and knowledge to aid with my anger issues.

Very nice and helpful. Thank you Carol.

Donna never pushes you to talk or pushes you to answer. For me it was about asking the right question so that the emotions just came flooding out. There was never a rush to talk and never a rush to talk about everything at once. Each week she would recap on the previous session and see how/if I felt better or worse, if anything had changed. She was also open to new issues and problems. She didn’t just focus on the issues, but on me and my life and how I needed to help myself too.

It was Donna who saved my life, I cannot think of other words to express how important Donna has been in my road to recovery. I have all the skills, strength and direction in my life due to how Donna has supported me. I would go back and see her if I found I was struggling again.

Carol has really helped me. The structure of her communication is clear and easy to follow. The exercises we have run through together in the sessions, as well as the 'homework' she set me are simple but powerful and I've seen real progress with my OCD and anxiety. Carol is kind, open and leaves space for me to 'think out loud' and vocalise my feelings. She is a wonderful therapist and I couldn't recommend her more highly.

I thoroughly enjoyed my sessions with Melanie, she really helped change my thought process and was very easy to talk to.

Maha was extremely good at helping me resolve the issue and difficulties I had. She is very welcoming, open and perceptive and her skills as a counsellor guided me to coming to terms with and resolving the difficulties that had arisen. I can very much recommend her.

Great listening, understanding, patient, knows what she is talking about, goes above and beyond her role, very accommodating. Extremely helpful.

Jane has true empathy and is very insightful. Jane leaves one to 'fill in the blanks' which I found particularly useful in understanding what it was I was feeling and expressing. I felt no awkwardness in expressing my emotions with Jane and felt understood. Jane helped me on my onward journey and is an inspiration in my new career path in mental health. I highly recommend Jane and her professionalism, her congruence and regard towards her client.

I have now had three counselling sessions with Cyrous and I’m going to have as many as it takes to help me with my anger issues. I’ve got to say it, Cyrous is the most understanding person I have ever met. He made me feel like I have known this gentleman for years. What a lovely person to talk to. I’ve had problems with anger for years!!! After three sessions with Cyrous, I know I’m going to beat my anger issues. I’ve ruined relationships in the past, but with Cyrous helping me I’m going to be the perfect person. Thank you Cyrous, you are a real gentleman.

Manuela is a wonderful therapist. She adapts to your needs and pushes you in a way that manages to be incredibly kind and safe.

Wendy is absolutely fantastic. She’s empathetic, kind, understanding and impartial. Very easy to talk to and a pleasure to deal with. We have had individual sessions as well, as certain things came out of the couples sessions and this was a really nice way of getting to the core of certain issues. She is now ‘on call’ whenever we need her, just to have a chat or with any issues we need to resolve. Not pushy at all and she has a real passion to solve the issues at hand. We would 100% recommend her to anyone who wants help. A real pleasure to meet and deal with the issue at hand. We are now in a much better place and that’s thanks to Wendy.

Corina was always very open, and I especially appreciated that she never assumed anything (something I had found a problem with a therapist in the past). Her quality of listening and empathy allowed me to share more than I thought I could. She didn't judge or draw her own conclusions, but just reframed what I brought to the session so that I could get a new perspective on it. I always felt that she really understood what I was saying. Corina has a really broad knowledge of her field and different approaches - I was exploring meditation for the first time outside of the sessions and I found it inspiring to share this experience with her. I've found the effect of our sessions to be transformative especially of my close personal relationships, and self-esteem.

Manuela is really friendly, easy to talk to, non judgemental and really professional, along with a lot of other positive qualities. She helped me so much this past 2 years, she’s been there in really dark times, I always felt I have someone having my back, someone I can trust and the most important thing is, that I always had my safe space, where I could let go of all the negative thoughts, and I know I can always go back there if I really need it. She helped me to become a better person and to learn how to deal with my past and my traumas. I’ll forever be grateful for her support.

His openness and ability to listen and understand with a non judgemental and friendly approach made it very easy to discuss personal issues. He really helped me find my way on to the right path which has helped to give me purpose to my life and fulfilment in how I live it. I’d highly recommend Simon as a therapist.

Wendy is a good listener and made us feel at ease in all sessions. Wendy was personable with a friendly and open demeanour. A pleasure to work with.

Excellent listener, showing remarkable patience and being firm when needed.

Kaukab is calm, understanding, empathetic and generally a beautiful soul.

Simon is very easy to talk to and very good at helping to explore problems whilst been completely impartial. Excellent therapist.

Very honest, understands the predicament and thought process that I am faced with and gives me some tools and encouragement to cope with this. His main intention to help me get well but at the same time doesn't put up with any bull.... excuse the use of vocab but true!

Very warm, understanding. Didn't judge. We resolved the matter much quicker than I had anticipated.

Pieter was very easy to talk to, he was a good listener and I felt very reassured during my sessions. I would highly recommend Pieter. I felt much better once I engaged with his service.

Angela was very easy to talk to and gave me useful tools to use in my day to day life.

Jo was kind and non judgemental and allowed me to talk at my own pace about my intrusive thoughts that I struggled to verbalise. I feel I have new lifelong skills that have set me on the right path to transform my obsessive way of thinking.

I cannot recommend Flavia highly enough. She was an excellent listener, catered our sessions perfectly around my needs and was extremely helpful in working with me to resolve multiple issues. Flavia's preferred method of compassion based therapy worked really well for me and my thought processes. All in all, I found my time working with Flavia extremely beneficial, she is a kind and approachable and will be going back to her any time I need help.

Angela was very welcoming and understood me and my problems without ever feeling any pressure. A great person and at a very affordable price.

Julie has a very relaxed manner and tackles all issues sympathetically and with positivity.

Ailsa is observant, conscientious and easy to speak to. As a person with diagnosed chronic depression, I have had experience with roughly 10 talk therapists, and Ailsa's approach immediately put me at ease. I stress this because I have found it has helped me to quickly open up about my inner life and feel like progress is being made early on. Ailsa listens and remembers, and this is a quality that is surprisingly difficult to find in a therapist. She is able to thread together ideas and concepts from previous conversations, which has helped me develop a deeper understanding of my thought patterns and associated behaviours. I believe Ailsa genuinely cares about her clients and aims to help them succeed with kindness and without judgement. It is still early days in our therapy work, but I look forward to seeing even more benefits of our counselling sessions.

A kind caring person who I found easy to talk to and trust - highly recommend.

I am a 21 year old guy, I had never talked to anyone about anything really before talking to Simon. I found it hard talking to anyone else but it was incredibly easy to talk about everything and anything with him. He helped me immensely, he moved mountains inside my head and I will be forever grateful to him and the techniques that he used. The space to talk was incredibly comfortable as well which I think does help a lot. My issues were due to quite severe anxiety and stress.

Vicky showed empathy, being easy to talk to and offering practical exercises and help. During the therapy, several situations arose which, without the sessions with Vicky, I cannot see how I would have coped as well as I did. Without the therapy, the last 6 or 7 months would have been very different.

Guy is a great therapist! He has helped me find the tools I need to get through a very tough time in life and I’m definitely going to continue my sessions as I’ve found them invaluable! Thanks so much Guy!

Dr Cole is a wonderful professional and a lovely woman. I enjoyed our sessions, and would come away with helpful strategies and suggestions for how to tackle and cope with the situation which was causing me to feel unhappy. She has made a positive impact on my life. I wish her all the best.

Jo is such a kind and understanding person. I felt completely comfortable talking through anything that was bothering me. She has helped me through the toughest struggles I have faced so far with my anxiety, and I cannot thank her enough. I now understand more about myself and how to deal with my anxiety, more than ever before. I cannot thank her enough. I feel like I have improved unbelievable amounts, and if times get tough again, I would always go back to Jo for some guidance. My journey with Jo has helped me to develop a more peaceful mind.

Guy has a gentle way in his approach to counselling. He has a way of making one feel comfortable and able to open up and to share the most painful experiences. With his empathy, support and care he has helped me to start to rebuild a shattered life and been there to help me pick up the pieces on the days when I have felt that I just cannot go on. He has taught me to find my “safe place” and I hear his words guiding me through the waves of panic. Through listening and talking to me, Guy knows me, my character, and his help and guidance are based on the picture he has built up of me as a person. We have shared sadness and laughter but he has been there talking me through the darkest of times. I was reluctant at first to see a counsellor, but Guy has helped me through the saddest of times and has given me the courage to try to find myself again.

I have been visiting Guy for aboit 2 Years now and Guy is a very calm and understanding therapist, with a very intuitive approach to therapy, with a magic bag of therapy techniques to make things go smoothly which includes but is not limited to: Butterfly Technique, EMDR, Bilateral Stimulation and Internal Family Dynamics. He really is someone you can rely on regarding personal issues. I would reccommend Guy to anyone experiencing emotional or mental difficulties since he has been very effective at helping me overcome my struggles.

Attentive and listens, but is not afraid to ask challenging questions.

I think Helen has significant experience - she patiently listened whilst I splurged a long and complicated (in my head) story and then provided particularly relevant and focused advice.

All I can say is that Chris was a God send. There was nothing I couldn’t talk about and the insights that Chris came up with gave me light bulb moments every session. I went from a very scared person to someone who had more awareness of myself, to the point I now feel I have more choices at any given time and more power over who I am and what I do. I couldn’t recommend Chris enough, if you need that therapist that can listen and above all else provide you with in-depth support then Chris is your man.

Ulrike was attentive, non-judgemental and incredibly insightful. Ulrike helped me explore and unpack so many topics whilst she equipped me to be prepared for the future.

Brenda has helped me really delve deep within myself to try and unearth the problems that have persistently plagued me in my adult life. It's not always easy but my sessions with her have really helped me progress and change my attitude towards change. I have seen a number of counsellors and Brenda is the only one I have continued to see regularly for a prolonged period of time.

Maureen really opened up the questions I had in my head around my relationship and how I was dealing with my emotions. Using a CBT approach she allowed me to see things in a more logical approach and mapped my thought process.

Aaron is very calming and reassuring and made me feel at ease straight away.

I was apprehensive before starting therapy but I needn’t have been, I’ve found Paula to have an understanding and empathetic manner and to be very easy to talk to. Paula is always ready to listen, offer a kind word, useful advice, encouragement or to challenge and debate ideas with me when needed. I look forward to my sessions and always walk out feeling like a weight has been lifted. I have never thought myself to be the type of person to open up to a ‘therapist’ but Paula creates a comfortable and relaxed environment, in which I never feel judged. In short Paula has (literally) been a life saver for me and I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Pat was very professional and made me feel immediately comfortable in our sessions. It was explained that the aim was to provide tools and homework to help bridge the sessions and work on the progress made. Throughout every conversation I had complete trust in Pat's skills and knowledge and really saw an improvement with each session. I now have the understanding and resources there to help me in future and wouldn't hesitate to contact Pat again, should I need.

Patricia is a very easy person to open up to and a delightfully warm human being. I feel very comfortable in her presence and feel confident of her confidentiality. Patricia brings out the best in a person and seeks out light hearted moments when one feels temporarily down hearted and cannot see light at the end of the tunnel. I would whole heartedly recommend Patricia if you are feeling nervous about taking the next step to moving forward in your life.

Easy to speak to, understanding and down to earth.

Phil is very kind and caring. He’s shows these qualities in every session I’ve had and without his sessions I would not be able to be improving the way I am. He has helped me channel my pain, anger and anxiety into a feeling of more calm and togetherness. I am very grateful for Phil and the help he is giving me and I would absolutely recommend him.

Nothing short of brilliant. I was very scared to go to therapy and Bernadette made me feel at ease right away. She has a very calm manner. I feel she gave me the tools to not only manage what I went to see her about, but tools which I have been able to use throughout my life. Knowing her door is always open is a great comfort.

Debbie has a very calming nature and is always patient! I felt she guided and supported me through some quite difficult childhood memories and helped me to see them through adult eyes. She gave me ‘words’ to use to describe how I feel, which I didn’t have in my vocabulary before. I felt much more confident about relocating.

I couldn’t recommend Kelly enough, she’s an amazing therapist and such an all round great person.

Easy to talk. Flexible in approach. Great listener when you need to talk to someone. Most issues are due to lack of communication and it helps to talk to someone who wants to help.

A good listener and yet proactive with his advice which was possible to measure the effectiveness of over a period of time.

As someone who has always found it hard to open up to people and try to sort out my problems, Rony was always there to offer the best advice with his vast knowledge. He wanted to push me to become the best I could be and I will always be thankful to him for helping me.

Amazing, can’t recommend enough!

From my first session with Tony I knew I'd found the right therapist. He made me feel so at ease and I felt so comfortable talking to him. I saw the signs that my weekly sessions with Tony we're helping me very early into my counselling. A year later and I feel like a totally different man to the one that first went to see Tony. I was in a dark place but now I can genuinely say I love life. For the first time in my life. I've unearthed a confidence that I never believed I could have. I will be forever greatful to Tony.

Jacqui is very professional, approachable, friendly, easy to talk to. She's helped me so much.

Sarah helped me see the bigger picture in life and made me realise what I have really got in life and how strong I am.

A great listener. Non judgemental. I felt safe. I was able to work through what I wanted to at my own pace. I cannot thank her enough for what she has done. She truly is an angel sent to help people in need.

Ambrose worked with me for over a year helping me curing a bulimia disorder I had lived with for over 10 years. I had been to other therapists in the past, but had lost faith as I never managed to find someone who would actually help me with the practicalities of changing what had been such a big part of my life, as well as helping me putting my worries into perspective. And now I am free! Thank you Ambrose.

Drew was an excellent therapist, really supportive and a great listener. He really helped me to understand what was happening and how I could take more control over my situation.

Pat is very calming and easy to talk to. She put me at ease from my first session when I first sought help a few years ago, when I was suffering from severe anxiety and depression after having been very physically ill and having problems with my family relationships. She is patient and understanding, guiding me to find my own answers and feeling better. I still attend as I find talking to her helps me maintain my mental wellbeing.

Warm, inviting, funny, calm and straight talking.

Tony is an extremely helpful, thoughtful and empathetic therapist. This was my first ever experience of talking therapy and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to the process.

I spent a couple of months with Jo as I really struggled with anxiety and self esteem. I immediately felt so comfortable speaking with Jo. She didn’t pressure me into focusing on my past, but instead helped me with everyday struggles that I faced. She makes the room a safe place to speak your mind, and never made me feel uncomfortable or under pressure. I left every session with a feeling of a fresh start. She taught me to break things down in my mind, and taught me small everyday skills which have truly impacted me in a positive way. She has taught me to take control of my everyday struggles, and not have them take over me. She has helped me learn ways to change my negative, and stressful train of thought. She could assess exactly what type of therapy I needed to help me. She is extremely professional, easy to talk to, reliable and never made me feel like a ‘patient’. She has given me skills for life, to help me truly change my own life for the better.

Melanie is very insightful, and informative. So much so that I now actually have an understanding of why I behave as I have been doing for 50 years! And now feel so much more confident in living my life healthier and happier. I would totally recommend Melanie.

Ali has a lovely balance between compassion and empathy and being able to challenge you when appropriate - she has been able to gently change my way of thinking and looking at myself, giving me more helpful mental 'tools' to reframe situations and how I respond to them. Its an ongoing process but I feel far more confidence in my own resilience as a result.

When choosing a psychotherapist, your own "gut" is important. The "wavelength" must be right. With Simon it was right from the first moment. If you are looking for an empathic, calm and warm therapist, Simon is the right place for you. I feel comfortable with him, he encourages me to open up and I was able to establish a very good relationship of trust with Simon. I have already been able to take a lot with me from the therapy sessions.

Drew is an amazing therapist. Calm, great listener. Understanding with patience and empathy.

Anna helped me to get through a breakup. She had good analytical skills and offered valuable wisdom.

Caring and really listens to you and doesn’t speak at you. Understands the situation clearly. Explains things through because sometimes you do not see the wood for the trees, so to speak. I would certainly return to see her in the future.

Lisa is incredible. She has a very calm, patient and understanding manner which put me at ease immediately, which gave me the confidence to talk through the issues I was experiencing.

Eleanor is the only therapist with whom I've progressed past the 'surface issues' and 'gone deeper' with. She is very easy to talk to, approaches things from a non-judgemental place and has never pressured me into anything. Eleanor is happy for me to take the lead within my sessions, which allows me to take things at my own pace and I truly believe this is why I've made so much progress. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to someone looking for a therapist and have done so a couple of times already.

I initially went to therapy without really knowing what in particular I wanted to focus on but knew that I needed help in refocusing my life in general. Jacqui patiently “sat with me” in my feelings allowing me to just talk my confusion out loud in order to find solutions. By week 5 and after several very tearful sessions, I had my “breakthrough” session when the root cause of all of my sadness became clear. Jacqui’s skill in listening and asking the right questions coupled with her ability to reflect back what she observed in my body language or things I had said, although hard to hear at times allowed me to unpack my “stuff”. Feeling safe in my vulnerability with Jacqui allowed me to truly face my pain and therefore deal with the things in my life and myself that I can now change, alter and/or manage. I am eternally grateful to Jacqui for her professionalism and due to my time with her I am forever changed and would therefore highly recommend her as a therapist.

Shirley listens without judgement and is understanding and kind. Shirley has helped me through a very stressful and emotional experience in my life and I can’t thank her enough.

Excellent and has helped me through an extremely challenging time.

Very understanding and makes helpful suggestions on how to deal with problems.

Guy is very compassionate and understanding. And extremely easy to talk to. He has helped see me through a very difficult time.

She is very easy to work with, very patient, supportive, guiding, gives homework which is reviewed, uses examples from every day life to help understand CBT generally. I enjoy our sessions.

I found Beverley very easy to talk to and understanding. She took great care in trying to understand me and my feelings, to best help me which she did extremely well. I would highly recommend her as a therapist.

She is very pleasant and understanding and easy to talk to. She has a nice manner and talks very softly so you feel calm talking to her.

Very good listener, very understanding and supportive. Had a lot of useful ideas and techniques to help me with my issues and overall was a really helpful person. I was very happy to have done my therapy with him and would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone who is looking for someone to work through their issues with.

Fantastic therapist. So easy to talk to and so insightful. Wish I had found Dr Oby a long time ago.

Simon was extremely helpful, engaging and easy to work with. Also very open to resolution of the issues, bringing the process to a close and giving me tools to move on with.

Very polite and considerate. She really listened to me.

Helpful and intuitive like having a very smart friend who wants to help.

Good listener and very understanding - very nice location - calming atmosphere.

Very calm and very sympathetic but also knows how to challenge you and your ideas in a sensitive way. Excellent analytical thoughts and ways of seeing your story from a different angle. Nadia is a warm person and it feels like she’s really rooting for you. Would highly recommend her.

Calming voice.

Nicola is very approachable and is an intuitive listener. I found that Nicola focused on practical methods or solutions that can be applied to every day life, which was extremely helpful in managing my anxiety. I found that she was able to explain concepts really well and helped me to understand my anxiety better. She has a very good sense of when to delve deeper into issues and explore them further. Overall, I had a massively helpful and positive experience.

Patient, non-judgemental. Kind. Remembered the smallest details of my life.

My time with Janine was, in many ways, life changing. I learnt things about myself and my mental health that I wasn’t aware of. Janine taught me a great deal of coping techniques but moreover allowed me to get to the core of my issues and address them. As a result I have far better relations with some of the most important people in my life and am much more comfortable in myself. Janine was very compassionate and empathic. She allowed me to forge my own path in therapy whilst giving me enough guidance and direction. Whilst Janine’s fees were higher than others, it was worth the additional outlay.

Understanding, fair, patient, perceptive.

Andrew is warm, kind and non-judgemental. I felt safe to talk about my difficulties with anxiety. By exploring my childhood relationships with my family I have learnt to look at my emotional response to current relationships and understand myself better. With Andrew's help, I no longer feel like there's something wrong with me. I'm more confident and less afraid.

Karen communicates and makes you feel very relaxed whilst making a positive impact on your current mind set and worries. I also feel that Karen works very hard in and out of her profession to help people, and I genuinely believe Karen is there to help people and is really committed to making a positive impact on all people that need help or need someone to listen to. I have been with Karen for nearly 4 years and she has made a massive impact and positive role in my well being and my life. Helping me understand my past and also helping with today - Karen is worth her weight in gold.

I have never had therapy before but would recommend it to everyone. Cherry is patient, understanding and non judgemental. I struggle to open up to friends and family but feel so relaxed during our sessions that before I know it an hour has passed.

Wendy is a great listener who makes you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in to the room. She doesn’t judge you or your situations and she allows you to explore different areas of you life at your own pace. I can’t recommend her enough.

Very easy to talk to. Feel he is able to help and understands my problems. Always happy to talk about anything. Easy to get an appointment convenient to me.

I found Charlotte to be approachable, easy to talk to and a great help. Full of handy tips and ideas which helped me to put in strategies to manage my condition. A great therapist.

Justin is easy to talk to, knowledgeable and I feel confident in his ability to help guide me through my trauma. Already making a lot of progress and seeing my symptoms decrease. The mindfulness approach is having a positive effect on my well-being and is easy to practice at home.

Helen is friendly, approachable and non-judgmental. Despite this being my first experience of therapy, I felt comfortable throughout...no awkward moments. Helen has a good understanding of when to ask questions and when to allow the client to talk. She listens carefully to what is being said (as well as what was not being said)...her interventions were always pertinent and helped to move the discussion forward. I would not hesitate to recommend Helen Marsh to others looking for a therapist and would readily return for further sessions should the need arise.

Amanda was great. She allowed me to open up and talk about how I had been feeling for a long time. She sat and listened but also asked the questions that I needed asking.

Juliette was a good listener, non-judgemental, permitting of a rambling “story”. Although I only attended for two sessions, they helped me in a strange bereavement situation.

Christina has been helping me for over a year now, I have overcome so many issues due to her help, she is very understanding and easy to talk to.

Great therapist, he made me feel very comfortable to open myself. I see improvement from our first session. I can't recommend him enough.

She has an immediate casual and comfortable approach that makes one feel at ease from the start. I felt very comfortable during our sessions and chats where I was always optimistic that progress would be made. It's obviously vital that a therapist and client are on a similar wave length and for that I felt Billi was adaptable and most competent. Our sessions varied and Billi certainly made me think of certain problems in another way where it was positive to see things from another angle and perspective. Billi is also the very first therapist that I've used and I feel that she is extremely good at her job, and I would certainly recommend her services to anyone seeking help for the first time or even having used a previous therapist where it did not quite work out. I feel the professional relationship between a therapist and client is most personal and Billi certainly provides a first class service.

Sam listened, supported and guided me through a difficult time. She gave advice I could relate to and work with. She never judged, but only ever tried to understand. I am very grateful for all her support.

She help me a lot! Thank you.

Absolute psychological genius - not exaggeration! Unbeatable blend of empathy and real sciencific knowledge. Nicola offers a practical approach to therapy that is like nothing else I've experienced with other therapists. I wish she'd write a book! Can't recommend highly enough!

Sehar has a natural non judgemental, empathetic nature allowing me as the client to be open and raw. Always maintaining boundaries whilst allowing space for me to talk and explore challenging situations at my own pace.

Gary contacted me quickly which was comforting as I really felt like I needed help and did not know which way to turn. He found the root of the problem in the first session and helped me become aware of why I feel like I do. Gary is very professional and an experienced therapist. I thoroughly recommend him.

Simon is empathetic and understanding, and I have a different, more positive experience with him than I have with therapists in the past. He explains concepts clearly, which has helped me to build up the confidence to make changes I need to in order to get to where I want to go.

I have found Guy a great help over the last year and couldn't imagine not going to see him for any issues I have. He is calming and has a great deal of empathy whilst being firm and impartial. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Karole is an amazing professional who tries to help in a very caring and friendly way. Her expertise is unmatched.

Simon is such a warm and empathetic person. It was extremely easy to open up to him and feel his genuine concern and eagerness to help. I am so pleased to have found him and would not hesitate in recommending him. It’s been liberating to know he is always there if I need to call upon him again. Simon, you’re an absolute gem.

Julie is extremely good at her job. I had 3 major traumas which I had to cope with in quick succession and knew I could not continue without help. I sourced her myself and read the reviews so after plucking up courage I made an appointment to see her and quite honestly have learned so much from her about how to deal with situations (most of which I was not handling well at all). She gives you the tools to go forward with confidence which is, in my opinion, an amazing attribute.

Finding it really useful doing one to one DBT skills with Dr Thompson. Am visually impaired and appreciate her allowing my guide dog to accompany me to sessions and Dr Thompson emailing me reading materials rather than giving me printed copies so I can access them using specialist magnification software. Dr Thompson is easy to talk to but will also challenge my thoughts and behaviour when necessary. A good balance. Finding the funds for sessions has sometimes been hard for me meaning the frequency of my requests for sessions fluctuate and Dr Thompson has been sympathetic and accommodated this. Dr Thompson has helped me set up Skype on my phone. Hoping to use this for our next session so I don’t have to travel to and from the session by public transport - this will help me avoid a lengthy journey and travel costs. I really recommend this Psychologist.

Georgina's qualities as a therapist are outstanding. It was really easy to talk to an open to Georgina, she created a really nice and welcoming atmosphere. She was really knowledgeable and she helps me a lot with my problems with anxiety and depression. I would definitely recommend Georgina.

Calm, professional, welcoming, down to earth, encouraging. Maria helped me more than I could have envisaged and gave me tools to help myself going forward.

Sally was easy to talk to and helped with practical solutions as well as psychological advice.

Kind, understanding, friendly, funny, amazing!

Warm and welcoming. Open to varied types of therapy, gives a sense of compassion (not to be taken for granted in a therapist!). Good at checking in what I think, possible changes in therapy. Good at giving practical tips how to cope with difficult situations outside the therapy room.

She was brilliant, she listened and understood and guided us through our issues. We always came out feeling better and more positive about the future. There were exercises she introduced that also helped, and she gave us an understanding of our personality traits as a result of our upbringing by doing our family tree. We would totally recommend her. For us as a couple who were in a really bad place - we are now in a good place. If we ever felt the need again we would certainly contact Tina again.

Ailsa was great. Cannot thank her enough. Only regret is taking so long to realise I needed help.

Caring, engaging and understanding.

Maria made our sessions very comfortable, with her humour and genuine interest in my health. It made her easy to talk to, I'm still using her advice now, even though I've been diagnosed as bipolar type 2. I loved Maria. It was a shame travel became an issue.

Anneli has genuinely changed my life, it’s hard to put into words the compassion, guidance and kindness she expresses but I’m going to try. For many years I felt I had hidden away my demons and the best thing to do would be to carry on and smile through life. I discovered deep down there was a lot of fear, grief, insecurity and cruelty that was manifesting, and throughout my journey with Anneli she allowed me to dissect and manage my emotions. For anyone who has every suffered loss, been a victim of hurt from another or has hidden their true self from others, I would urge you to see Anneli. I will miss my weekly sessions tremendously, my time with Anneli was my safe place for so long but we both agree that I am now ready to enjoy life and be in control of my mind. I cannot express enough how much this has meant for me and I know I will never forget the lessons you have taught me. Thank you for saving me, I cannot thank you enough x.

Jacqui was everything a good therapist should be; calm, insightful and supportive when the going got tough. I sought the help of a therapist following the death of my sister with whom I shared a complex relationship. I feel better able to look to the future without resentment and anger. It was certainly very beneficial.

Makes you feel at ease straight away. Great at explaining things in detail. Never rushes his sessions.

Excellent, I was able to make great progress for my mental health condition through my therapy sessions with Patricia Adams. My therapist provided an excellent service particularly through using CBT techniques and I noticed a significant improvement in my mental health condition following each session. I would highly recommend Patricia Adams.

I have found my sessions with Jane incredibly progressive and am able to think clearly about what is going on in my life and past for once. I am thoroughly impressed with Jane's approach and really look forward to the sessions which get easier as time goes by. Jane is helping me to understand what is already there in such a knowledgeable way. I would absolutely recommend Jane.

Gosia is very easy to talk to and extremely empathetic. You can actually feel how much she cares. She is very knowledgeable and uses very good examples and analogies to explain her points. I am so glad that I started therapy and so thankful that I chose Gosia as my therapist.

Words can't describe how excellent Dr Oby is as a therapist. I went to her about an original issue and she was able to see past that, get to the real root of the problem and helped me sort out all of my issues. At the same time she did not rush me, let me take my time with my original issue and then gently guided me in a right direction.

We spoke about our past and where our problems may stem from. Peter was easy to talk to and asked us reasonable questions in order to understand better. Also gave us advice how differently to approach tricky situations.

Edwina is very attentive and validates every single feeling I have. I’ve never had a therapist that has allowed me to be so open with them without fear of judgement. She offers a lot of great advice that has changed a lot of aspects in my life.

Easy to talk to. Helped us through our situation. Got the feeling he had our best interests at heart.

Simon is a wonderful therapist, he listens attentively and is genuine and accessible. Simon is able to adapt his sessions to meet my agenda entirely. His clinical space is calming and welcoming and he is flexible in session length and timings. Simon is helpful and thought provoking. I cannot recommend him enough.

Caring and a really good listener. She is such a lovely lady.

Excellent role model and therapist.

Easy to talk to, calm and offered techniques to help when outside of therapy.

Nicky is a lovely therapist, very compassionate and understanding.

Very gentle, engaging and tremendously helpful.

Very understanding, easy to talk to, she definitely knows her work very well. A lovely ordinary person. I would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Manuela is kind and patient as a therapist. Empathy is definitely her strong suit and she tried to get to the bottom of my emotions and their origin.

She guides you to the right way to adapt your life. Nicola doesn't judge you, she is patient understanding and kind.

Reassuring, knowledgeable, calm and kind. I was so much better after my counselling with Lesley. I felt empowered and had regained some of my confidence. My anxiety was caused by an ongoing employment issue. Thank you Lesley.

I've had a lot of therapists and she has definitely been the best. I feel very relaxed with her and that makes it easier for me to discuss my problems. My other therapists have also been good however I've definitely made the most progress with Lorraine. She is always willing to go the extra mile to help you. She is extremely professional and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking therapy.

Amanda was friendly and easy to talk to and I found it very easy to open up to her.

Very understanding given I’m the most difficult client imaginable! Offers a lot of support with touches of humour which helps to alleviate the problem. Excellent value and highly recommended. A very nice therapist, firm when needed, and it’s always good to hear that he is able to help with the new found problems of pain and anxiety brought on by faulty dental treatment.

Deone is amazing! I'm extremely grateful to have been connected with her. I'm finding my therapy sessions with her very helpful. She's been helping me to unpack my trauma and insecurities in a healthy and constructive way. I always leave our sessions feeling better than when I entered. I would definitely recommend Deone to others looking for a therapist that makes them feel heard and understood. I feel welcome and comfortable to open up to Deone and I'm looking forward to continuing our sessions.

Vicky helped me deal with my self esteem issues through the use of CBT. I'm really glad of the sessions and treatment.

Jeremy has helped me so much I couldn’t recommend him more! Always professional and welcoming.

Very attentive and understanding. Encouraged me to go outside of my comfort zone and helped me achieve what I did not think was possible with my mental health.

I am continuing to see Samantha. I find her easy to talk to and open up to. She also asks questions that really make me think about things in a new and helpful way. I would definitely recommend her counselling.

James is a very compassionate and warm therapist, who has the ability to listen and understand your issues, without judgement. I would thoroughly recommend James to help you overcome your issues. A thoroughly nice guy.

Cheryl has an ideal personality for a therapist. Calm, quietly spoken, understanding, good listener.

James was very good at getting me thinking about and explaining issues that I had with regards to my anger, and also explaining how to overcome and think about the consequences before I act on whatever had upset or made me angry. I highly recommend James as he is so easy to talk to and also listens and advises.

Dennis knows how to tune in to what's going on for you, he makes it safe to talk.

Dr Payne helped me explore and understand traumatic events in the past, to shed light on my behaviour in the present. From there I have found more about myself and my talents and feel happier, more secure and more resilient. Well worth it.

All I can say is that without Caroline's help, my partner and I would probably no longer be together. Following the sessions, we now have a greater understanding of each other, and although we still have work to do, the sessions with Caroline have been the key to enjoy being with each other again.

Chris offered practical help so that I could learn how to deal with my anger; to distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate emotional responses to situations, and to build my confidence so that I could handle stressful situations as they arose.

Elaine is an excellent therapist; obviously so experienced. She makes you feel so relaxed right from the onset. She really helps you look at things you may not have thought of. Lovely and caring.

Guy is a great person to talk to and very quickly makes you feel at ease. This was a very hard thing for me to do and Guy made it so much easier. He was insightful, helpful and has really started to address my problems and concerns. He did so in a very understanding and considered way and at all times very aware of what I had been going through and how I can get through to a much better place.

Karen is an excellent listener. Karen asks great questions that made me think outside the box sometimes. Karen is very approachable and has a wonderful way of relaxing people through obviously difficult times. I always looked forward to my appointments with Karen, knowing that I would come away with more clarity, and positive thoughts. Karen was able to challenge me to think differently about the issues that I was facing which has had a profound benefit both in my private and professional life.

Thea is a gentle and easy person to talk to. She allowed me space and time to talk and gave me some valuable advice on how to manage my feelings and move forward with my life. She was also fairly flexible around meeting times as sometimes work commitments and meetings prevented me from attending my usual time slot. PS I cannot remember exactly the amount of sessions completed so have approximated.

She is a lovely lady that listens, has a response, great environment and would use her again anytime.

Very insightful and supportive.

Really nice guy and very good counsellor. Helps offer solutions. Would recommend.

Gosia was an excellent therapist, helping me understand my anxiety and opened up my eyes to the various techniques and methods I can apply on a daily basis. Her calming and compassionate personality provided a safe place where I felt understood and able to talk deeply about my feelings and emotions. I'm very glad I found Gosia, highly recommend her services.

Roger is very welcoming and easy to talk to. I feel very comfortable in his company and happy to discuss anything. I would really recommend Roger to anyone who needs a little help piecing their puzzle together.

Sharon was fantastic. Bottom line - she probably saved our marriage after 25 years - so life changing. She has given us the understanding and insight of each other and of ourselves, enabling us to move ever forward in a better way. Eternal thanks. At all times, she was professional, non-judgemental and informative with a good sense of humour. What are you waiting for? :) C and A.

Very kind, easy to talk to and non-judgemental.

I found Barbara very calming from day one. She listens, and will often take me back to a point or an issue I mentioned some time ago and give me a tool or a better way of thinking which has truly helped me deal with my negative situations better.

Malvinder is very professional and helpful. She makes you feel comfortable and makes sure you are dealing with issues one at a time and that you take your time doing so. She does not rush the process and offers a different range of techniques, really catering to your needs. If I am uncomfortable with a certain exercise or technique she always has a back up to offer. One of my favourite qualities Malvinder possesses is that she has very clear boundaries and in that sense you always know the relationship you have is from client to therapist. She is well read and well researched in self care and therapy practices and if you have an interest in something or something is working for you she can recommend a range of literature. Most important of all she creates a safe environment and you never feel judged for your emotions, past or present situation. Overall, I would definitely recommend Malvinder as a therapist.

Coralyn has been extremely helpful in helping me work through a variety of issues. She instantly made me feel comfortable and is very easy to talk to which makes it easier to open up. She is great and I would highly recommend her as a therapist.

Adrian made me feel so comfortable to talk about my life since the first session. He opened up a new way to see things that were not so clear for me. I highly recommend him and for individual sessions or couple sessions.

Richard is a very warming person and very easy to talk to. Richard can put things in perspective and guide you on the right path. Richard gave me reasons to problems I couldn’t see myself. He help me understand and accept things, hopefully will help me to move on.

She was easy to talk to and great at guiding you through. I was shocked how I opened up to her.

Johan creates an environment that is very easy to talk freely in. She is very straight forward and clear with her questions and her advice. She is very patient, understanding and reliable.

Nigel is very easy to feel comfortable around. I immediately felt that I could discuss anything and not feel judged or embarrassed. He takes the time to listen and look at all possible avenues and reasons behind problems. He is great at helping you to visualise solutions and to understand how to deal with difficult situations. Nigel creates a very calm, relaxed and safe atmosphere.

I have tried counselling previously but had never felt comfortable enough to open up. John is very easy to talk to and creates an environment in which I felt safe and comfortable to talk. I went to John with suspected BPD, but now it seems that it is PTSD. I have been going almost weekly for approx. 6 months now. He is helping me through an incredibly difficult period of my life and has given me the strength and motivation to keep going.

In the short amount of time I've been seeing Janine, I feel so much progress has been made already. The space that has been created is professional, yet comfortable. At every point, Janine has kept me involved - always checking in that I feel like the sessions are helpful or if there's anything I want to work on. The plan we have made together has ensured transparency, and has made me feel listened to, and that I have a say in what happens. Janine is very patient, kind, and I always leave feeling positive and motivated, regardless of what we've discussed in the session. I'm very happy with everything so far, and look forward to continuing working with Janine.

Joanne is empathetic but also very practical with providing tools that will help with day to day emotions and situations. I didn't want an over analysis of problems, I needed help in overcoming some negative emotions and a way to move forward positively. Joanne, very ably, provided just that. I found the experience incredibly helpful.

Friendly, calm, caring, attentive, reassuring. He seemed to remember everything I’d said previously so I didn’t have to repeat myself. Helped me greatly.

Calm, patient, insightful, measured, intelligent, welcoming. My only experience of counselling, during and after a particularly difficult period, and Callum made a massive difference to both my well being and thought process. We spent a year together and it actually honestly really helped.

Keith was the first therapist I have used but was most helpful and understanding. He was attentive, listened very well and helped me enormously in understanding my situation. He had a wonderful knowledge of theories and explained these to me simply and with no pretence. I would highly recommend Keith.

I had only a few sessions, however I am extremely happy so far. I found it very easy to talk to Sharareh. I have found an answer for a few questions were I was lost. I know that there is still a long way to go but I know that I am going in a good direction.

Good therapist.

Jane is an excellent listener, she empathises well with what you are going through, Jane listens intently and gets to understand the problems you have and advises accordingly. She is calm and professional at all times and welcoming, discreet and flexible with her times and availability.

Priya very quickly understood both of our personalities and what we were looking for. There was a brilliant mixture of talking therapy and other approaches. It was genuinely incredible. We can't thank her enough.

Calm and kind approach towards us both. He gave us the tools to deal with any problem we might face in the future and to deal with issues from the past and present. Highly recommended and we’re so glad we were brave enough to take this step.

Peaceful and tranquil environment in which to talk, very helpful in which to discover true feelings and understanding of what is underlying issues and problems.

Patricia has been invaluable in my progress to moving forward from a particularly difficult period of my life. This has been my first time undergoing counselling and I am so glad I found Patricia. She has been pivotal in guiding me in the right direction and helping to clarify my thoughts when the constant rumination left me feeling completely confused and stuck. I have felt that during my sessions with Patricia, she has been objective whilst also wanting the very best for me and I have felt that she deeply cared about the direction my life moved in. There aren't enough words to say how thankful I am for finding her, thank you Patricia from the bottom of my heart!

Louise was easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable discussing everything throughout my sessions. She listened to everything I had to say and gave me great feedback.

Our sessions helped me understand how to lead a more stable life, and he provided me with a variety of different methods to help with my treatment so that it was easier to find one that worked best for me. He helped me question my own thinking to change my negative behaviors and thoughts. I have seen therapists before, however I felt that my sessions with John have been most effective in the treatment of my BPD. He was also supportive of my being a student and therefore was very flexible with the arrangements of our appointments.

Welcoming, safe and very kind. She and her lovely therapy room created a container for addressing deep issues and moving them towards resolution.

Jason is great! He never pushed me in to talking about what was hurting me! Sometimes we would just talk about random things. I know now it was his way of getting to know me. Just talking to Jason really helped! Could say more but it was my time! As a therapist Jason is 10 out of ten in my eyes! But we are not all the same.

Janine knows how to ask the correct questions and utilises the information you give her well to be constructive and insightful. Her competence is undeniable and her calm and sophisticated approach really helps to provide an optimistic approach to therapy. It is evident that she is capable of dealing with situations that may seem overly complex and can effectively provide advice and communicate in such a way that does not allow for judgement or ill feeling about therapy. I would strongly recommend.

A good listener and sound advice.

Great therapist, would recommend to anyone who wants to progress in therapy and see results.

Kevin is a very good therapist. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help.

She works creatively. She helps you to understand things in a different way and realise connections between things.

Very good listener and offered alternative ways of viewing and thinking through issues.

I found Jana very easy to talk to, right from the off. I felt able to relax. Jana was very perceptive and always gave me plenty of food for thought at the end of each session. The frequency of the sessions was at my pace, initially weekly, and then two weekly. Thanks to Jana, I understand myself much more now, and feel much more capable of managing my anxiety and depression. Highly recommended.

Michele has been superb and is now helping our whole family. His insights and the values of his questions to both myself and my wife have been far deeper and more beneficial than any other therapist that we have worked with. We are extremely happy to have found him and are already making progress. It's a painful process of course, and he has needed to be both stretching and challenging at times, but he has also been extremely supportive. And overall he is extremely supportive. He seems highly experienced and is very insightful. It's hard work, but we are very grateful and we would highly recommend him.

Sue is very knowledgeable and experienced, using a range of appropriate techniques and strategies to assist in counselling. I felt at ease and confident in Sue's care immediately. Sue helped me achieve a major breakthrough in dealing with a difficult issue that I had been struggling with for a long time. I have felt like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders with Sue's help. I would highly recommend her and would definitely return to Sue for help in the future if needed.

Samantha helped me with things that I didn't realise I needed help with. She helped me express feelings I had been suppressing for a very long time. Samantha had me talking about things before I realised I was talking about them. After a number of sessions I began to feel a great weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I had always had a problem expressing myself. Samantha got me to really open up and I now find it so much easier to talk about things with the people closest to me. My therapy hasn't been a cure for the main issue I was having but Samantha has helped me deal with it so much better. Should I need counselling in the future I will not hesitate and call Samantha. I could never thank her enough for how she has helped me.

Empathetic, intelligent, skilled, open and supportive.

Gentle, serious when appropriate and funny when appropriate. His manner encouraged me to tell him a great many things that have disturbed me for years but kept secret. A pleasure to be counselled by.

She is great. I have attended only two sessions so far but she has helped me to see things differently and put the focus back on myself. I highly recommend her. It's so easy to talk too, she makes you feel comfortable from the very beginning. I don't have anything bad to say about her or the way she works at all!

Pauline is amazing, so insightful, caring and she's really helped me so much in two sessions than any other therapist has done in longer time! I will be having long term counselling with her. Highly recommend.

Very good at listening and understanding my perspective.

Great listener and great advice. I have been a few times and really think my sessions are working for my anxiety.

Jenny was brilliant. Her room is calming and comfortable. I very quickly felt positive results from our meetings and she helped me work out my triggers and personality traits that may have brought me to the position I felt I was in. Just talking to someone who is non judgemental and objective is so helpful.

George is very capable of empathising with the client.

Easy to talk to, feel like you can tell him everything, extremely understanding.

It was very comfortable and easy to talk to her. Georgina is very good at remembering who the people in your life are and is at ease connecting all the dots without having to keep asking questions. The flow was very good and puts you at ease.

My son only saw Marlene for a short time but within that time my son seemed happier after his sessions with Marlene. Marlene was friendly and helped my son a lot. I will seek Marlene's help again in the future if my son hits a down point and he feels he needs someone to talk to. Thank you Marlene.

Open Informative Listened.

Christina is great. She is very easy to talk to, and understanding and helped me make sense of my own feelings. She helped me to identify issues and put in place tools to overcome them. I wholeheartedly recommend Christina.

Barbara was very welcoming, relaxed, professional and very easy to talk to.

Extremely understanding and comforting. She always gives really helpful advice.

She is so down to earth and easy to talk to. She has really helped us with issues that we had as well my own. I cannot fault her at all.

Joanne is a very kind and understanding person that fosters an atmosphere of peace and understanding and acceptance. I always feel comfortable when I am with her and I feel like she genuinely cares about me and listens to me. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone that wants to start seeing a therapist.

She understands, and advises accordingly. She is kind, humble and has an ear to whatever you are willing to share. She made me comfortable enough, to let it all out. Helped me a lot.

She is perceptive and empathic.

Jo is a good listener and quickly made me feel at ease. She is clearly experienced as she helped me make connections I hadn't been able to do in the past. After following some of her suggestions I have progressed beyond where I was expecting. I would definitely recommend Jo to anyone wanting a high quality level of support. Paul.

Michael is very good at what he does. I've used someone in the past and was not happy and very put off of it all. I needed the help and thought I'd give it another try and at last found someone very nice and listens. I feel very comfort and confident in the future working with Mike that I will go on a better person. Fantastic.

Kind and patient with practical techniques to help. I feel very comfortable talking to Brian and leave the sessions feeling like I have moved forward.

Manuela is a fantastic therapist. I have not words to describe how important it was to have her as a guide. We created a very special and professional bond that allowed me to be honest and most importantly, to trust her. I am beyond happy for the experience of having her as a therapist.

A lovely lady, who listened to everything I said and seemed to understand with such insight. I had started to change my life before I met her but I was struggling with so many things. Tracy's observations and encouragement have helped me and are still helping me to lead a new life that just keeps getting better.

Diane put me at my ease straight away. I came out of my first session excited and pleased that I'd found someone who could help me. I think it will be slow progress changing 45 years of ingrained behaviour, but I am confident Diane will be there to help and support in any way I need.

Sonja is wonderful to talk to. She was able to get me to talk in a manner which was comfortable to me, and her input helped me understand exactly why I was there. Thank you.

Carole was very calm and caring, she quickly identified the causes of my problem and worked with me to build up my self esteem and overcome my anger, relationship and depression issues. I feel a new person since seeing Carole and have had a positive upturn in my life and well being.

Really good listening, very patient and I felt he really understood the issues I was having very quickly. Gave me some great advice and helped me look again with a fresh pair of eyes at some of the problems I was experiencing.

Great listener and gets the important things out of you. Fantastic counsellor.

Lynn listened really well, and asked pertinent questions, which were timely. Lynn really helped me to see the areas of my life that were a bit causing me issues and then asked really simple questions to make me question my feelings, and establish boundaries.

I would highly recommend Gloria, she helped me in ways that I thought wasn't possible via therapy. I shall definetly see her in the future as and when I need to see her.

Chris was fantastic, he never rushed me and took his time. He just seemed to get it right. He got the mix just right, being personable and professional. I felt I could be completely honest and open with him and he was a very calming, knowledgeable person. Having never experienced counselling before I was unsure of how successful it would be, however my experience was very positive and I would highly recommend Chris Lewis.

Maria is very easy to talk to and makes you feel at ease. She is very knowledgeable and has given me great advice and help.

From my first appointment with Deborah I felt at ease with her. Very genuine and kind person which obviously transfers to her work as a therapist. Highly recommended.

Adrienne was always present and attentive. Her approach was well tailored to my needs, and she responded appropriately as they developed. She was always put my well-being first. We had a very relaxed and confident rapport, which I appreciated greatly. I expect to employ her skills in the future.

Attentive. Certain. Light-hearted.

She has helped me put things in perspective and resolve my self esteem issues.

Jo was skilled and focused and I looked forward to my weekly sessions, always coming away with positive thoughts and a deeper understanding of the issues. She was always very well prepared, thoroughly professional and kind. Importantly I came to believe and trust her insightful view of the different parts and forces at play in my problem. I have no hesitation in recommending her and happy to take the opportunity now to thank her sincerely.

Pam is kind, a good listener and offers practical and useful advice. I found her sessions really useful when I was dealing with some difficult work issues. We talked through the challenges I was experiencing and she was able to offer some solid advice, which I followed and it helped me understand other people's behaviour and tailored my reactions. I would really recommend her as a therapist and counsellor.

Sue is the best therapist I was fortunate enough to find. She is extremely understanding and knows how to engage with people. Without ever judging me, Sue was able to gently help me see things differently and to make decisions myself that would benefit my long term well being and emotional health etc. She has inspired me to see myself differently (in a good way!) and has helped me to regain the confidence and self esteem I never thought I would. It's because of my sessions with Sue that I am the happy person that I am today. Thank you so much. x.

Gives excellent advice and has helped me a great deal.

Kind, compassionate and motivating.

Mark made me feel very comfortable the minute I walked through his door for the first time, he is a very good therapist who I will and have recommended to many people. I feel completely at ease with Mark and he is helping my husband and I to communicate again. Really impressed.

Nancy is a very kind, warm and friendly person. From the moment I first met her she made me feel at ease and comfortable enough to open up and talk to her about my feelings. She is very passionate about her work and being able to help her clients and that comes through every session. She will listen where needs be, asks thought provoking questions and challenges you in a respectful manner. She certainly helped me look at things from a different perspective. Overall just a really nice person.

Jackie is a very calm and thoughtful person and she made it very easy to open up about sensitive topics.

Diane made me feel at ease straight away, I went to my first session nervous and apprehensive. I honestly thought I had no reason to go there and problems I was having weren't that important and should be able to cope with on my own. I can honestly say making the decision to start therapy was the best thing I've done. Diane helped me realise that what I was going through was normal and it was ok to ask for help, her office was homely and inviting, not clinical like I was expecting. The tools I've gained will help with day to day issues, as well as the big issues I need to process. Having the knowledge of how the brain works and how to change my thinking so it can work properly, has made processing any obstacles that come up easier. During my sessions with Diane, I've gained confidence to do things I never would have, I've learned to love myself, know my worth, and what I deserve in life. It was like talking to a friend, I cried at times, but also laughed, I felt at home, and without therapy I don't know where I would be.

Tracy is a very kind woman, she made me feel very welcome and made it easy and comfortable to talk with. Tracy has a very good way of explaining on all different topics, she made it easy for me to understand the different problems we can face and gave brilliant positive outlooks to work with. Tracy is very educated in her line of work and puts all her knowledge to very good use. Tracy's a great listener and has a very good way of understanding what the problem is we may be facing.

Cyrous comes across as very kind and caring. He put me at ease and is very comforting, but also consistently offers practical advice.

James creates a very relaxing and welcoming atmosphere in his home. Rather than just sitting and talking, James offers different ways of approaching topics and issues. He invites you to take part in activities at home and gives 'homework'. James made me think about subjects from a different perspective and gave my partner and I equal time to share our views. I highly recommend James to couples or individuals seeking counselling.

Maria's qualities as a therapist are excellent, so easy to talk to, and really makes one feel at ease. I would recommend Maria to anyone who has problems with anxiety or depression.

I visited Lynn at a real low point in my life. She was extremely kind, empathetic and caring. She was able to challenge my thinking to help me reframe some of my beliefs that held me back and were destructive. She is very professional, setting out boundaries for our relationship which was a spring board for making positive changes to my life. Her home office was warm, comfortable and safe, which allowed me to open up and share some previously difficult to discuss issues. She was truly amazing and I would highly recommend Lynn to anyone (and have done) for her ability to support, encourage and challenge and provide a space for real change.

Fantastic listener. She understands the dynamics of the situation. She repeats back what has been said. The questionnaire is great and it's easy to drill down on particular points.

Very caring, understanding and supportive. Very easy to talk to!

Lisset diagnosed me with severe anxiety. She couldn't have been more helpful or professional. She's a very good listener, but more importantly, a good communicator. She guided me through my worries, deconstructing them as we went, and therefore making sense of why I was feeling the way I was. Once I realised there was a fix for how I was feeling, it was then a fascinating and informative journey to arm myself with the skills to destroy the anxiety. I would highly recommend Lisset to anyone with any kind of mental issues that have been impacting on their life. She genuinely turned my life around and now me, and my family are in a better place.

Matthew was very easy to talk to but I actually found another therapist who I would prefer to work with.

Kina came across as experienced, persistent and flexible in her approach on a session to session basis. She was able to point me towards a better understanding of my own behaviour in relation to optimising work relationships and dealing with conflict in personal relationships. By helping me identify how I had internalised certain childhood experiences, and how they were still influencing assumptions I was making in adulthood, it was much easier to identify practical steps to change my strategy. I also appreciated her parallel focus on eating habits and sleep patterns and how they influenced my thought patterns.

I saw Hannah as a level 3 counselling student for 6 sessions. I found Hannah to be warm and empathic. Her breadth of knowledge and experience were evident in the sessions. I came away with having had an enriching experience and a valuable first experience of how good practice works.

Looking for someone who you immediately feel comfortable with is absolutely key for me and I felt that with Brenda. Comfortable surroundings and I feel very at ease with her.

Michael has helped me to think about what is important to me. Over a short period of time, he has helped me to cope better with modern day living. He doesn't have a magic wand, but he has a charm and general way of making you feel relaxed in his company. I went to see him, as a last resort. The National Health Service hasn't really helped me with my problems. I never ever thought, I would ever need a person like Michael's help to make me feel better about myself.

Empathic, great listener, understood and was aware of cultural difference. Empowered me to develop and grow. Offered appointments on the weekend which was helpful due to work commitments.

Carole was extremely easy to talk to. She listens and provides helpful suggestions and is very caring and professional.

Easy to talk to and very person centred.

I sought counselling after suffering a bereavement - my wife of 30 years had died recently at the age of just 56. At the outset I was encouraged to think about what I wanted from the counselling and soon identified coming to terms with my grief and finding a positive outlook on life to move forward. Thanks to our counselling sessions I now feel positive about life and understand the nature of my grief and the part it plays in my life. Margaret managed the counselling relationship with extreme sensitivity and professionalism from the outset and to the end. At no point did I feel our sessions were being controlled or contrived and I was able to offload and lead our discussions in new directions as I needed. If I ever felt a session had achieved little I always noticed some days later the actual benefit was there. All in all my counselling experience was like a journey through the seasons - starting in a bleak winter time, progressing through a more hopeful spring and finally concluding with the warmth of summer and for me a renewed confidence, a positive outlook and being better able to live with my grief.

Joanna is a calm, attentive therapist who is able to create a safe space for you. I felt guarded, and it was easy to open up quickly. She let me do, say and be what I wanted to, while I was permanently feeling her supportive presence. She turned my thoughts to the right direction gently and pointed at new ones to broaden my perspective if it needed to. When I felt stuck, she always had an idea how to solve this softly and how to head me for my flow. She is a great professional, highly recommended. Thank you, Joanna.

She is really easy to talk to, I felt comfortable from the get go. I was anxious about going to therapy, but Diane made my experience much easier. She always made me feel at ease when discussing any aspect of my life.

Joanna was a fantastic therapist who helped me work through some things I was struggling with. She was kind, patient and gave me the space to talk openly about my experiences. She also respected my way of understanding things and it really felt like we were working together.

Really good listener and identifies the problem quickly.

Nicky has been an enormous help to me; listening past the words and understanding the emotions beneath. She is able to ask the right (sometimes tough) questions at the right time, prompting real growth and understanding. Whatever the 'x' factor is, I would suggest she has it. The fact that sessions are less structured mean free-form dynamics, this allowed for her to help me confront issues without the stream of conversation feeling forced or un-natural. I would highly recommend Nicky.

Fiona seemed to capture everything I said and to understand and pinpoint how I felt. She made me realise certain things about myself which I hadn't thought about before. She interacted with me which I particularly wanted from a therapist giving me things to work on between sessions and for the future. I felt very comfortable with Fiona and valued her experience as a therapist and of life.

Allowed us to move at our own pace. Felt heard and understood. Given the space to voice our concerns.

Gill is extremely calm and understanding. In our first session she outlined her credentials and immediately put me at ease. Each session ended on a positive note and Gill was extremely helpful with coping techniques and understanding with difficult issues. I always felt my treatment was what came first and at the point when my recovery was becoming clear there was never any pressure to continue having sessions when they were no longer necessary. Additionally I was discouraged from booking too many sessions as it would not have given me enough time to digest the previous session. Gill was a fantastic counsellor and her help was greatly beneficial and appreciated.

Debbie, is very approachable and good at understanding key problems. She adds ideas to resolve problems. Debbie has helped me a lot.

Guy is warm and engaging without being too intense; I felt very comfortable with him and he put me at ease almost immediately. He is inquisitive but not intrusive; he listens carefully without interrupting and checks his understanding by feeding back to ensure he has not misinterpreted what he has heard and he is incredibly insightful. He is empathetic and non-judgmental and manages to strike the right balance between impartiality and compassion. He enabled me to understand the root of the issues I had brought to him. He offered me techniques for coping with anxiety and was effective in helping me to worth through my problems without trying to tell me what to do or think.

Kevin is a very professional man who is very welcoming and kind. He is a great listener and generally cares about his clients. I highly recommend him.

Despite being apprehensive about the idea of couples counselling, Pauline's welcoming and warm personality helped us settle in and feel comfortable. In just a few sessions, she helped us work through a source of conflict my husband and I were dealing with, and our marriage has been much happier and healthier ever since. Thank you, Pauline!

I am very happy that I found Malgorzata, she is an unbelievably kind and gentle person. Except relieving chats she can teach you some activities to help yourself on daily basis. I can highly recommend her services.

Very good listener and at prompting, also at making me realise certain aspects that have been holding me back.

Tony created an atmosphere where I felt I could speak freely without judgement or needing to hide anything, and he understood with a perceptive and compassionate outlook. He helped me to explore problems that I was worried about, and to reframe them, so I understood them (and myself) a lot more clearly. This gave me greater peace of mind, which I still benefit from now, several weeks after finishing therapy.

Very gentle; kind and understanding.

Gurvinder is a very down to earth person and easy to get on a level with. She is genuinely sympathetic and a great listener, but she's also willing to challenge you, and present new concepts in a way which encourages to tackle your issues head on within the session.

Warm, sympathetic and incisive. Very welcoming and easy to talk to. She helped me enormously with dealing with personal and professional challenges. She helped me to understand myself better through analysis and therapy.

From the moment I met Sheleen I felt so comfortable in her presence. She really did put me at ease and I had no concerns with what I shared with her during my ten months of therapy. Sheleen was both professional and caring. Having a good rapport with a therapist is half the battle when you are going through a difficult period in your life and I would have no hesitation in recommending Sheleen to anybody seeking counselling/psychotherapy. I feel as though I have gained a friend in Sheleen.

I have worked with many therapists from various schools over the years and Guy is one of the best I have worked with. Not only is Guy very warm and easy to talk to, he is adept at enablling you to identify, allow and explore multiple emotions and perspectives on specific personal relationships and issues. I feel empowered after a therapy session with Guy and I am able to see issues with greater clarity, a tribute to Guy's skill as a therapist. Highly recommended, money very well spent.

Chris has been very helpful to us. It was our first experience, but he made us feel very comfortable and it was very easy to talk to him about anything. We highly recommend his counselling.

From the moment I walked into Martin's home, I felt like he wanted me to be there to help me through my problems. He has the ability to make you feel in control of what it is you are trying to deal with, without forcing his opinions on you. It's more like a 2 way conversation discussing a small issue, and coming to a plan of how to work on it. I've only had a few sessions with Martin, but I am already making positive steps.

Insightful and incredibly patient, she offers impartial therapy that really helps you make the changes you need to.

She is the best therapist I have seen, she is very friendly and caring.

Understanding and a great listener.

Becky has a very calm, friendly and approachable manner. I felt very safe in her hands and this allowed me to talk freely about what was on my mind without judgement. She was professional and above all she was present at all times we were in session. That hour was for me and about me and that is what I needed. I would highly recommend Becky!

Was very understanding and reassuring during sessions. Felt at ease and was able to talk through my problems at a comfortable pace. Has had a positive effect so far. Was able to analyse past stressful events, my reaction, and to prepare for future similar incidents if they arose

She is very pleasant person and she helped me lots...very calm and she will listen to what you have to say and then she will advise you and explain to you in the best way possible! After the first session I was feeling better and I feel I have done a big progress about myself with her help! We had 2 sessions but we ended as I was feeling ok and I am moving to London but anytime when I will feel anxious I won't hesitate to contact her again. Maria is very friendly and she will talk with you like a real friend and you will feel her very close and you wont hesitate to tell her everything about your feelings! Thank you so so much Maria!

Carol has helped me put my feelings into words, my fears, my lack of self worth and my depression, she has helped me to explore being a victim of crime/violence, my disability which occurred through that, I finally found a place that I could feel safe and a place to speak and to cry, I'm on the road to learning to manage my thoughts better.

Stuart is an empathetic, approachable therapist who genuinely cares about the welfare of his clients, and therefore creates a comfortable, laid back atmosphere that I found extremely helpful during a very emotional time. I would highly recommend him.

Simon will challenge your thinking and help you understand and choose a better path providing a healthy dose of perspective along with practical tools and intuitive advice. He's a great listener and will also provide his experienced view in a refreshing, honest and realistic way.

I found Christina at a particularly difficult time in my life. She quickly put me at ease, and helped me to see a way forward. I now feel so much clearer and stronger. I would highly recommend her as a therapist.

Carole's been great from day one. I would've continued treatment if I stayed in the UK. It was the first time for me and as a therapist she did help as best as she could with impeccable professionalism. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Carole.

Carol really helped me understand some of my current behaviours are linked to the events of my past. She has helped me to think about what actions I might want to take to overcome these. Patient, listened and friendly, she offered really useful advice and I never felt rushed.

Diane is a very understanding person, this quality makes opening up to Diane very easy. In my situation Diane was very useful at putting things into perspective and explaining how my thought process was unhelpful. A great aspect about Diane is that she gives you the tools to help yourself, she gave me structure to my life which was very important for me at the time. I would 100% recommend Diane for anyone.

I found Elizabeth warm, approachable and understanding. Clearly a very skilful therapist and communicator. Would definitely recommend.

I found it incredibly easy to share my story with Waheena immediately, she has an amazing quality of making you feel as though you are sharing with a friend whilst still having the boundaries of a professional.

Cyrous is very easy to talk to, even about private subjects. He proposes ideas that you may have even heard before but always in a way you haven't considered and how that could apply to you. He is very calm and reassuring, making you feel relaxed as you talk. He is pragmatic and realistic in his advice and often will lead you to draw conclusions yourself, making things easier to take on. I've only seen him about 4 times so far but already I've seen improvements in my situation. He's excellent at what he does and I really recommend him as a therapist.

Suheyla was very warm and open. I felt comfortable talking to her without being judged. Unfortunately I was unable to continue with the treatment due to unforeseen circumstances.

Empathetic, non-judgmental and easy to talk to. Helped me see things from partner's point of view, didn't just take my side. Remembered my history and family set up well.

Helpful and easy to talk to.

Stuart listened to my issues and helped me to overcome some serious traumas from the past. He made the area we worked in comfortable and was encouraging me to take care of myself. He helped me accept my depression and addressed many things that I had believed about myself. He allowed me to speak freely and confess things that I wouldn't usually share with anyone. Overall I'm a more confident person and can recognise when things need to change for me. I would recommend him to others as a form of support and reliable person to provide assistance when required.

Excellent in every way, made me feel at ease from the first meeting.

From the very first session, I found Patricia extremely easy to talk to. I was pleased that the sessions were grounded in my present. Very quickly, we found methods of dealing with my issues, and I have been able to move forward quickly and positively. I am now seeing Patricia every three months for a "top up" session. I am really pleased with the work we have done and highly recommend Patricia.

Christina has made me feel at ease from my first session, allowing me to go at my own pace and building the trust needed to talk about things. Not only does Christina listen, she also suggests other alternatives to what has been said, which helps me to see things in a different light and is helping me through my therapy.

Very patient, caring, knowledgeable and helpful. Her house is very pretty and calming. Sherry helped my son very much, we would see her again if needed without hesitation.

Thoughtful and precise with his words, understanding and compassionate. Gives you room to speak, asks relevant questions to help you uncover and verbalise things at your own pace in your own words.

I found Patricia immediately open, friendly and easy to talk with. She spent a lot of time encouraging me to open up and explore my thinking, really focusing me on changing my internal thought process around stress and anxiety. She was also good fun to meet and made the sessions I have had with her enjoyable as well as insightful, with lots of practical advice for me to take away and implement which have made a real impact for me.

Excellent.

Calming atmosphere. I feel that he really listens and also picks up on issues that need to be explored. I feel safe to explore any situation with Stuart.

Very calming, relaxing. Makes you feel welcome. Challenges you to help find yourself.

Samantha is a great therapist. Easy to talk to and has good skills at getting to the root of your problems. I would 100% recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much for you help.

Guy was kind and understanding. I found him very patient when listening to our problems and felt encouraged by him that things could be resolved. Our situation is far calmer and life is much more bearable.

She is able to listen and dissect what I am saying. I am confused and have a low self esteem problem at the moment. She is helping me but I am struggling to admit and come to terms with the problems I have. I feel in time she will help me overcome these issues.

Anne's down to earth and direct approach got to the issues at hand very quickly. She is very easy to talk to and really puts you at ease, which in my case was needed. She offers practical solutions and doesn't just sit listening and nodding like some other counsellors do.

I find Simon very easy to talk to and confide in. He is easy going, attentive and non-judgemental and this comes across in his every manner. I highly recommend.

Fantastic therapist. It was the first time that I've openly discussed my mental health with someone and I found that she was incredibly helpful and helped me to put my mind at ease.

We connected instantly. Liz was always prepared for me. It wasn't only conversations back and forth, it was real therapy. She really helped me. Highly recomended.

Really understanding n makes you feel relaxed in ur sessions. Helped me hell of alot to get out of a dark place I was in. Will continue to have more sessions with Jill..best therapist have ever seen by far.

Very good.

Paula helped me a lot and has given me some tools to help me with my anxiety. She is the first therapist I have met who I felt understood my problems, thank you.

She seems to fully understand the issues going on and how to deal with them. I've had therapy before and nobody has been able to tap into the real issues the way that she had.

Cyrous listens and has resources available to help guide you through the issues you'd like to discuss. He draws on neuroscientific findings and how it relates it to your experiences, providing useful analogies and methods of seeing the bigger picture.

Easy to talk to and open up to, very able to make connections and help me to understand what I needed to work through in therapy.

A very understanding but objective therapist who clearly doesn't have any preconceptions about your situation. Malgorzata has used a variety of techniques, and whilst I have controlled the subject matter, she has been able to maintain focus and ensure that each week has had a coherent structure.

Gurvinder is able to create a safe space to enable discussion. However, she is also enable to challenge long held views even if uncomfortable and encourages me to manage that anxiety.

She is a good listener and she knows how to find weak points during the conversation. Also, she knows where to find the right and understandable word to make me to understand where is actually the problem. I'm really happy.

I met Sam last year when I was at rock bottom and in a little over a year she helped me to cope with it all and then how to understand it and move on from it. From the very first session, I felt totally at ease to open up and let it all out. It was easy to trust Sam and discuss things I had never spoke to anyone about or even understood myself. I would recommend Sam 100% to anyone who needs help dealing with tough feelings or situations, past or present, and I cannot thank her enough for helping me overcome those feelings and understand how I can see good in the world and myself again.

Really helpful. See things in a different way.

Polly is very kind and considerate and easy to talk to. I felt comfortable very quickly and would recommend Polly to others seeking someone to help them through some things they are struggling with. She has a variety of approaches and is able to adapt so long as you are open and honest. She is insightful and intelligent, often pointing out things I had not realised and patterns I did not realise existed.

Very good at understanding your feelings and emotions. A really helpful counsellor.

A fantastic listener. I went in, believing my issues were a combination of stress, anxiety and maybe depression. It's sometimes hard to label it. She allowed me to talk and explain my situation, picking up on subtle things I said which we explored more. Sometimes it went nowhere but then sometimes we veered off for a good 20-30 minutes. It helped me unlock things in my head and acknowledge them as feelings/emotions, which allowed me to process and deal with them. At every session (bar the first) Maria had some tips and tricks she would print off, which helped me to remain calm and positive in the time between sessions. She gave me a short book one week, to assist with my issues. Overall she is very easy to talk to, very calming and made me feel very good about myself whenever I left a session. I recommend Maria so much, even if her 'specialist' area might not seem right for you, reach out to her, because if she isn't right for you, she will tell you this as well. She is there to help people and certainly helped me. 5 stars literally isn't enough. She is the best!

John is very neutral and direct, which I like. His conduct is very professional so I felt comfortable quite quickly divulging personal details to him. He has shown me practical tools and strategies to help my anxiety and sleeplessness. We always discuss the issues I want to discuss and he's quick to direct me to solutions and ideas that help, as well as reading materials and other sources that are always spot on. John is helping my self-esteem enormously as I am learning to be less self-critical and to utilise personality traits that I always thought were negative in a positive and constructive way. I would not hesitate to recommend John to others.

Thanks Shirley for your patience and warm attitude. You have been very supportive in my therapy, providing extraordinary help and advice. Every session has been planned when necessary and in a nice environment with excellent listening and counselling. Without the help of Shirley I wouldn't have been able to overcome my difficult time. I recommend Shirley as a Therapist to everyone with problems with personal relationships and love. Thanks Shirley !!!

From the outset, Diane made me feel completely at ease and immediately I felt I could be totally open and honest with her. She is calm and has a warm nature which made it impossible for me to not give my all to every session with her. She used a variety of techniques with me to help me relax and I always left her sessions feeling far better than when I entered them. She genuinely cares about her clients and follows up on discussions from previous sessions. She uses humour at appropriate moments to shift the perspective of her clients. She is engaged with how her clients are feeling in each moment and uses this to adapt the focus of sessions dependant on requirements. She has created a comfortable, inviting space with appropriate lighting that further helps you feel at ease in her sessions. Diane has made a real impact on my life and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Due to certain circumstances my sessions with Diane are currently paused but I am looking forwards to continuing my work with her in the very near future.

Lots of different techniques used. Some very interesting questions asked and tools given.

Therapy is only effective if you feel empowered to bare your soul to your therapist. Emma put me at ease immediately, empowering me to be completely honest. Emma is thoughtful and perceptive. She goes to great lengths to understand the context of an issue, asking thoughtful questions in the process, rather than leaping to generic remedies. Therapy is not a silver bullet. At best it can open your eyes to an alternative way of thinking about your issues and negative thoughts. Emma is brilliantly qualified to help you do that. I'd recommend her to anyone.

One of the best counsellors I've ever had, she values you and your time and genuinely puts her heart into helping you.

Very easy to talk to and had lots of practical advice to help me.

Money well spent. An hour of sanity to refresh your outlook. Looking forward to changing my mindset with this support.

Ability to listen and always offers guidance to every situation. Gives very professional advice. The important thing for me was the fact that Ilse asked a lot about the past trying to find out all background information. This way I was able to share things with her and talk about reasons for my anxiety. Ilse was able to name things which helped me understand what it is that I suffer from.

Chris is a fantastic listener but is equally skilled at saying the right things to help you achieve the results you are looking for. I went to see Chris in the hope he would help me to cope with deep rooted anxiety, but also to overcome a lack of self confidence. Amazingly he was able to help with both in a relatively short space of time, so I would definitely recommend him to others.

I have found Gosia to be very compassionate and caring in her counselling approach. She provides a considered and insightful perspective when working through issues.

I was suffering from anxiety and when I first went to Chris for help I was not sure what to expect. Having never had counselling before I was nervous and was slightly pessimistic about if it would help me in any way. However Chris changed all that. He was very reassuring and instantly made me feel comfortable with him. The time I have spent with him has significantly made a positive impact relieving my anxiety. I feel I am in a better position to deal with my anxious feeling. Am more positive and each time I see him I feel I have a better handle on my life. I would recommend him to anyone considering counselling.

She is amazing. She has a way of aiding you in seeing things in a different perspective and she motivates you.

Hannah was very empathetic and a wonderful listener, because I felt heard and truly listened to. She was curious and non-judgemental and I trusted her with my beliefs and reflections. I valued her questioning around problem solving and she really helped me help myself. She was able to see the patterns in my behaviour and experiences and reflect back to me which felt rare and trusting. She helped me help myself, especially with regards to finding self compassion. It was very important that my therapist was confident and experienced so I couldn't have been luckier to find Hannah!

Rachael has been a great help, allowing me to explore all the relevant issues relating to my concern. I felt able to share my problems without feeling anxiety or being judged. I feel I have made real progress during our counselling sessions and Rachael has equipped me with some of the tools to continue this progress. I feel much more positive about life since speaking to her. Highly recommended.

Diane is everything you need in a therapist. She is understanding, welcoming, a great listener, helps you think in different ways or ways you may not have thought of trying, uses various strategies to help with whatever you are struggling with, along with many more positive qualities. I highly recommended Diane!

Seeing John was an effortless and rewarding experience. I went from being in crisis to understanding myself and having an exciting outlook on the future with all the tools I need for the second half of my life! I would recommend John without a moments hesitation! Regardless of how big or small... immediate or casual you think your concern is... John's calm and understanding nature combined with extensive skills and learning is all you could need to maximise your potential and embrace life!

Ilse is very good at helping me understand how to deal with situations in a more calming and reasonable manner.

Amanda is very approachable and creates a safe space to discuss your issues. I feel that I am benefiting from the counselling already and look forward to continuing my sessions as I work towards my defined goals. I would definitely recommend Amanda to anyone looking for counselling.

Relaxing... easy to talk to and a good listener... put me at ease at a very early stage for what was a very uncomfortable situation for me. Never judges you at any point and helped me immensely ... thank you Ray.

Jan empathises with you and really listens. She makes you feel at ease and helps to put in place ways in which you can help yourself all in a safe environment.

Cyrous takes a forward approach to self-improvement and does so in a calm, understanding and honest manner. Much of our time has been spent on acceptance of difficult circumstances, with a positive outlook for the future. Cyrous has helped me to better understand the cause and effect of some of my actions and behaviours and promotes an introspective mind-set.

Very welcoming and warm, gave me invaluable tools to increase my emotional robustness and very helpful perspective on my own patterns. The sessions were relaxed and engaging in a very unassuming, non-judgemental atmosphere.

I have seen Cyrous on several occasions following issues with both my relationship and some bereavements. I have found that Cyrous has helped me deal with problems and my life has become much calmer in the last few weeks. I would recommend Cyrous to anyone needing counselling.

Very easy, and very relatable to talk to. Very good at putting things into perspective.

Extremely relaxing, friendly. Creates an environment that makes you want to talk and has been a great help.

Beverley and I discussed the issues I was having and she asked questions in a sensitive non judgemental manner. Her thoughts and suggestions made sense when she explained a lot of my feelings were normal and how I may be able to handle them.

Very intuitive and professional.

Janet is perceptive and non-judgmental. This meant that I could talk to her honestly about difficult feelings and subjects. Janet was clear in her explanations, enabling me, for example, to understand the difference between worries and anxiety and to learn the tools to manage some worries and eliminate others. There was a clear plan to the work we undertook, with goals set and then regular reviews of those goals and resetting as necessary. For me this meant that I made steady, incremental progress overall. Any setbacks were dealt with by Janet in a reassuring way. In a nutshell, Janet has helped me to turn my life around.

Becky was good at establishing trust and an easy conversation at a steady pace, a conversation that carried over and developed over multiple sessions, without herself talking a great deal, simple steering our sessions back to the issues I identified for myself, allowing me to keep myself honest, recognise my own sources of anxiety, stress, anger and also resilience and strength. In other words Becky was good at listening and then establishing and maintaining a structure for our ongoing conversation.

Being a child of the 60's I was rather sceptical of seeing a therapist. However, Rachael soon put me at ease very quickly with her calm, considerate non judgemental approach. Rachael was able to put a perspective on issues which helped me put issues to bed, which had been bugging me for years.

He is very patient, knows how to ask the questions, knows how to answer in order to leave the patient to find his own answer.

Anna is an excellent listener, taking in and remembering everything - not just the things I thought were significant - but also picking up on other bits. Anna asks great questions that made me think outside the box sometimes. Anna is very approachable and has a wonderful way of relaxing people through obviously difficult times. I always looked forward to my appointments with Anna, knowing that I would come away with more clarity, and also positive thoughts. I have come a long way after a terrible trauma and I have Anna to thank for her psychotherapy and counselling and immeasurable help on my journey.

Helen has really helped both myself and other members of my family. We would highly recommend her for help with dealing with personal relationships and living with family members with narcissism and personality issues. I only wish that we'd seen her years ago!

Patricia is very friendly, approachable and comforting. Patricia made me feel at ease and safe to discuss all of my problems. Patricia has been very supportive and has assisted me to work through issues with a flexible and adaptable approach. I have been taught strategies in order to be able to address difficulties and have learnt to apply these in order to help myself.

Very approachable and easily put me at ease. Helping me understand my perception of stress and the anxiety and depression that has developed.

Guy is non-judgemental, and a great listener, and is very empathetic. He helped me work through the challenges I faced as my marriage broke down enabling me to make the right decisions for me and my son. I am in a good place now, and his help was invaluable. Would highly recommend Guy. His understanding of relationship breakdowns is impressive and especially how to put your children first.

Diane has a lot of experience and has a huge wealth of knowledge. Her integrative therapy means the client is exposed to a box of magic which will get to the root of any issues and help, heal and nourish. Diane is kind and patient and sets you at ease immediately. Her method is clear, helpful and concise and a great go-to when one needs a quick reminder of positive behaviour enabling the process to become more automatic in all situations. Highly recommend Diane to anyone.

On my first session with Martin it was obvious he was a sincere and approachable man. My sessions have been very professional and my therapy has helped myself get a better understanding of who I am and what I want from my life. I look forward to my counselling sessions as it has developed my understanding of how counselling works in the real world - my world. Sessions are carried out in a friendly and safe environment, and should anyone want to visit a counsellor who can truly help look no further than Martin.

Paz is a warm and caring person. Talking to her is like talking to an old friend. She has an ability to help you think in a different way to how you have been - which allows you to find answers within yourself that you didn't think you had. Having never sought help before I was apprehensive about taking this step, however Paz could not have done more to provide the right environment and right advice to help me to tackle my problems. Though it was hard to start it's nice to be back in control. She has changed my life and I cannot thank her enough. I would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone looking for assistance with their problems.

Peter is an experienced therapist who really cares about his clients and is committed to this vocation. My partner and I were stuck in an unhappy and distant relationship. Peter skilfully supported both of us without taking sides or blaming. He patiently taught us both to identify and communicate our feelings in healthier ways. In the beginning sessions were difficult and painful but after a few months our relationship had improved dramatically. Then I discovered that my partner was addicted to internet porn. Peter handled this with such sensitivity that for the first time my partner was able to talk about experiences he was very ashamed of and had kept secret all his life. We have both learnt so much from Peter. Life is less scary, we have made new friends and deepened our existing relationships. Therapy has been life-changing.

Kathy personally was absolutely what any first class counsellor needs to be effective. She helped us to sort out our problems. We would recommend her to anybody and have already sent two of our friends with problems to her.

Amanda, although very professional in her approach at counselling, is easy to talk to and I immediately felt at home in her presence. I think the sessions I have had so far have been helpful and thought provoking.

I am glad that I have got in contact with Cyrous as he has helped me start to understand the reasons why I'm feeling the way I am. I find him approachable, easy to talk to and am at ease in his company. I would recommend him 100% to others who need help and suppprt at difficult times.

Very good listener and asks open questions to generate deep thought and reflection. Very understanding and has been extremely helpful and supportive helping massively for me to understand the key issues and potential remedies.

I have found Cyrous to be a very friendly and pleaseant person to be around and he managed to build a good rapport with me straight away. He creates a safe environment to be able to open up and talk easily and always makes you feel he is on your side. I have found him very insightful and non judgemental. Highly recommended.

Beverley provides an open and easy atmosphere to discuss your problems. She's never judgemental or critical and displays a wealth of empathy and genuine concern for her clients' issues. In a very short space of time Beverley has been able to show me how to unburden myself and to identify the root causes of many of the problems that I discuss with her. I have visited therapists before but none that have been as natural and genuine and as helpful as Beverley.

She's a good listener and helps you to put things into perspective.

Gaynor is easy to talk to, non-judgmental, interested and probing but not pushy. She is very understanding and is excellent at getting to the heart of the matter, and then building confidence again and giving advice on how to cope with the day to day challenges along the recovery route. I would recommend Gaynor to anyone seeking counselling.

This woman has completely changed my life. She was able to help me quickly identify faults in my cognitive habits, and gave me simple and practical ways to make positive changes. I still have a way to go, but thanks to Marina I am happier than I have been in years. Non judgemental, understanding, and very easy to talk to. I've seen other therapists in the past but her relaxed professionalism was well worth the extra money and we made fast progress together. Thank you so much Marina.

Karole is very warm, welcoming and understanding. She helped me a huge amount in a short space of time. I would highly recommend her as a therapist.

I saw Patricia following a lot of complex problems including bereavement, family estrangement and serious illness of a loved one, which had resulted in quite severe depression and anxiety. Patricia was always kind, compassionate, non-judgemental and completely professional. Over a year I was able to work through all these, come to terms with them and take control of some very difficult situations with her help and support. I now feel I have the self awareness and confidence to deal with challenging situations, and it has improved my confidence and quality of life immeasurably. I would thoroughly recommend Patricia to anyone considering counselling and am so glad I found her when I did.

Jackie is a great therapist. I have felt so much better about myself since meeting Jackie and I have learnt so many good things through my therapy.

John is very easy to talk to and I truly believe he listened to my troubles. Through expressing myself he was able to focus on my concerns and helped me to the steps to my recovery. It is a working progress and for me I feel he has guided me and supported me and I now believe I am worth fighting for. Thank you.

Anusha is a good listener and I'd describe her as supportive, encouraging, thoughtful and perceptive. Our sessions together and the work I did on my own have helped me to understand the thoughts and patterns behind my anxiety and panic attacks. Crucially, our work together helped me to find new and practical responses to manage the anxiety and not let it spiral out of control.

Generally very easy to talk to and discuss issues. Relaxed and informal setting, feels like you can deal with any subject with ease. Cyrous is an experienced counsellor and has some positive solutions to address ongoing concerns. Friendly and outgoing.

Really welcoming, easy to talk and open up to. Corina really helped sort things out in my muddled head. Can't express how much Corina helped me through a very troubling time. Thank you very much Corina. I would highly recommend and will be using Corina again if i need to in the future. Again many thanks Corina.

Knowledgeable and sympathetic.

Gosia has helped change my life and my understanding of myself. She provides a safe, non-judgemental, environment to explore yourself and face difficult realisations. She is very easy to talk to and open up to, and can work with you using different methods depending on the type of work you want/need to do, or the outcome you are looking for.

Malgorzata has opened my eyes to issues that I wasn't aware of, which made me think differently and helped me to release some of the burdens I carried with me for long time. Also my way of communication has improved. Malgorzata is very supportive and open, knowledgable and conscientious, a good listener and connective.

She is very warm and welcoming, adaptable, and understanding. She has a wonderful uplifting personality, but is also very able to facilitate deeper understanding. She made me feel very comfortable, as she is very grounding and intuitive.

Such a lovely lady, so much empathy and time and really listens and is supportive. She really does make a difference, so glad I had the opportunity to work with her. I'll always remember what she has done for me. Thank you so much, you have been wonderful.

Simon is very open minded and caring. He really creates a safe environment allowing you to feel fully relaxed and engaged. He also takes time out to make sure you understand everything. He is also really good at not just explaining ideas and techniques, he also shows you how to utilize them, making it easier to understand.

I find Jenny's presence very calming and reassuring, but also professional. I feel that she provides clear and practical strategies for me to use in my own time.

Professional impartial respectful - supports the reflective process.

Helen has helped me see clearly, understand and be able to positively move on from a narcissistic up bringing.

I'd never had therapy before, so had no prior expectations. She was reassuring and listened very carefully. Over the few weeks I saw her I felt as though she understood me on a personal level, she created an atmosphere of trust and I felt as though she genuinely wanted to help and was invested in progress for my situation. She has a very kind, warm presence. I also felt completely at ease with her, perhaps partly because she's also female. I'd recommend her very highly.

Very relaxed environment and Kirsty is very warm and welcoming. Kirsty helped me explore and understand different emotions and advised of techniques to help when feeling anxious or low, which I have been able to take away from counselling.

Rachel is very good at listening even if it seems like I've been talking for too long and will always remind me of useful techniques I can employ to combat my problems. I always feel as if I can speak freely with Rachel.

Anne is an excellent therapist. She is insightful, very experienced, and she kindly guided me through my chaotic thought processes and helped me find the tools to carry on. I arrived a tight ball of misery and emerged happier, more confident, and willing to try new things. I recommend her highly. Thank you, Anne!

Whilst we only attended sessions for a short period, John was an extremely calming influence during the sessions and offered a great deal of insight into what our relationship needs moving forward, and gave us a new perspective. We would recommend highly.

She has a great outlook on things and is very understanding, a lovely person to share things with.

She's a good listener, understanding, kind and offers intelligent and measured responses and insights. She's skilled at determining why you may be having issues, and linking prior events to the way you may be feeling now.

I was able to express myself and felt comfortable and have achieved exactly what I wanted to get from the sessions.

Professional...empathetic...sensitive...reassuring.

Carole is a very good listener, and really helped me to get an insight into my issues, and work through them.

Has very good advice and is very experienced in how he delivers it, found his tools and tips extremely helpful.

Cyrous has an uncanny ability to make you smile just by talking with him. He is very quick to pick up on things during the session and I'm already starting to see a way forward. He's very easy to talk to and as long as you go in and are willing to share, he's fantastic. I felt pretty hopeless before I started seeing him but he's helped give me a bit of hope again. As a young male, I've found it very easy to open up with him and he can relate to a lot of things and gives excellent examples to help understand. I couldn't recommend him more.

Very good.

Elizabeth instantly makes you feel safe and at ease. She is very approachable and I have never once felt judged by her. She is kind, supportive and very focused on your needs. I never feel rushed and always leave the session feeling positive and light no matter what we have covered during the hour!

Very understanding and supportive. Guy reassured me about the methods I was using and offered useful alternatives and approaches. Gave me added confidence in supporting my son.

Cyrous is very understanding and genuine, this makes him easy to talk to.

Faye has a very professional manner and is easy to talk to. She moves the conversation on unobtrusively, suggesting the possibility of new ways to consider troublesome issues. I valued the sessions immensely.

I have recently completed seven months of counselling with Dominique, and have been amazed with the progress i have made. Not only do I feel much more relaxed and confident in myself, in sharp contrast to the stressed, overwhelmed and highly anxious state I started in, but I feel I have a much deeper understanding of how my brain works. I have learnt to recognise when situations trigger certain responses in my mind that makes things worse, and now I feel much better equipped to deal with them. Dominique has made talking about any problems very easy.

Thoroughly helpful to say the least. I was made to feel at ease during the sessions and I looked forward to each visit.

He has a great manner about him that enables me to open up about my problems. I recommend his abilities as a psychotherapist.

Ilse is very calm and encourages you to see a situation from another point of view. She is very welcoming and easy to talk to.

Compassionate, understanding and very easy to talk to. I will remain seeing him and he is far better than others I have used, I would highly recommend him to anybody.

Understanding. Reasonable. Considerate. Patient. He helped me develop an ability to understand how to manage myself more - I can offer no higher praise.

I felt at ease with Paula right from the start of our sessions. She is a good listener as well as offering sound and helpful advice. At no time did I feel rushed or that Paula was `clock watching`. I came to Paula rather late in my illness, whilst waiting for an NHS appointment, so I think the worst of my problem was subsiding by the time I saw her. To sum up I found her a very empathetic person and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone I knew who was having similar problems to myself.

Cristina is a great therapist. She made me feel safe within the first session. I felt I could open up easily and we started identifying where my problems were very quickly. I also could feel the progress we made in a very short amount of time in my day to day life. Her methods seems to be different to therapists i've seen in the past but I really love the way she works so I would highly recommend her.

He actually understands people's struggles and makes you feel seriously comfortable around him. Best therapist I've ever met.

Before working with Cristina, I was diagnosed with long-standing chronic fatigue. My GP recommended I find a psychologist to address the emotional difficulties leading to physical exhaustion. I had been through the NHS fatigue clinic services which were extremely helpful, but limited in availability. I had no hesitation meeting Cristina, and she was prompt in her responses. After our trial session I felt sufficiently seen, heard and comfortable to continue. She is available, usefully, both via Skype and in person (with her cat). The main outcome for me so far has been a deep settling into myself, leading to big steps forwards in many parts of my life and, crucially, less fatigue. I wasn't expecting a therapist to be so committed to the mind-body connection. It was a relief to find someone who wanted to work with me on that basis. I would suggest Cristina's services to anyone ready to move forward from stuckness and unhealthy cycles. Her work would be less helpful to someone with no interest in making shifts and changes in their life. I would certainly recommend working with Cristina. I continue to be impressed by the evident depth of her knowledge and understanding, humour and directness.

Easy to talk to about deep seated emotional difficulties. Calm and supportive approach.

Philip is excellent at helping you figure out what you need to be considering, but in a way where you're understanding things and finding your own solutions and conclusions.

Juliet advised me on personal situations in a very pragmatic and calming way. She helped me to reflect on situations in a different manner which effectively helped me overall with self aid and self care. Overall very helpful.

Kind, professional and easy to talk to.

She is very attentive to detail yet patient allowing the patient to come to their own conclusions. She is sensitive to complex issues, careful not too push too hard. She is non-judgemental and brings a high degree of intelligence to the therapy which can be important to bring the focus back to focal issues.

These sessions were my first experience of any kind of counselling or therapy, and I found Wilhelmina (Marga) to be very warm, understanding and supportive from the start. My main issues were around anxiety, depression and low self-esteem (which had been an issue throughout my life) but the breakdown of a long term relationship had made these issues significantly worse and in need to find some form of help. Marga was fantastic, and through a mix of CBT, a focus on compassion and counselling (and also an adoption of mindfulness) the 8 months of sessions helped me establish coping mechanisms, and ultimately start to understand myself and my issues - resulting in feeling that I am in more control of my issues (and better equipped to identify when my anxiety levels are rising, and therefore do something about it). She very much made me feel at ease throughout those 8 months, and as a result I am happy to say I feel in a much better place. I would highly recommend Marga.

It is thought of as a daunting experience going for counselling or help, and to share your problems/concerns/worries with a complete stranger. Patricia makes this so easy to do and is an amazing listener and communicator. She understands what you are experiencing and makes the session just seem like a chat and very enjoyable. You come away refreshed enlightened and full of energy. I would highly recommend her. As soon as she feels you don't need her she lets you know. To me this is the hard part, letting go of her!

Very easy to talk to. Relaxing environment. Listened and didn't judge.

John treats me as an individual and is not patronising in his manner. I feel that John is compassionate, open minded and has more of a sense of humour than therapists I've seen previously. I would definitely recommend him.

Judith is a careful, sympathetic listener who has helpful insights that give new ways of thinking about old problems. She is kind, thoughtful and highly recommended.

Calming. Informed and informative on CBT and mindful practices. Excellent listening skills - active, attuned, attentive.

Deborah is very approachable and reassuring. She contacted me very quickly after my initial enquiry and made sure an early appointment was available.

Angelika is very warm and welcoming and not at all the kind of 'cold therapist' I came to expect. I feel like I've faced a lot of my issues already, although I know this is only the beginning of a journey that will help improve my quality of life.

Pam was very calm and understanding to my problems. I felt I can tell her all my thoughts without being judged or ridiculed, and yet, she did occasionally bring up different perspectives to my problems, that allowed me to take a different perspective to my suffering. It was very helpful, and if nothing else, at least a very pleasant person to talk to, which in itself already is a lot.

Gaynor listens and gives neutral advice. She does not "take sides" and helps you work through your own thoughts and feelings without telling you what is either right or wrong. I found her easy to talk and listen to. She helped me to rationalise the negative issues I was having about my relationship. I did not realise how much my past had impacted my current life and attitudes. At our last meeting I was ready to move on as I no longer felt the same way as I did. I have gone from being an anxious blubbering mess, to a happy, vibrant, positive person, who is ready to take on the world. It's great to have "me" back again! I would recommend Gaynor to anyone. If you are feeling unsure about getting help, please consider therapy. Yes it can be expensive, but the help far outweighs the cost. I am so glad that I found this website. Gaynor, thank you for listening, making me feel positive again and finding the real me! x.

Stephen was very understanding and patient. He made me feel welcome and was easy to talk to. I never felt like I was being judged at anytime.

Debbie was great to speak to and not only listened but gave some very constructive input during my meetings with her. I found this especially helpful as I had been living under circumstances for so long that they had become ‘normalised' to me, but Debbie affirmed that this situation was definitely not normal. This helped me see more clearly and to be more decisive about myself and my life. Thank you, I would strongly recommend.

Just to hear her voice makes you in a comfortable position. She is really helpfull on everything. She always try to put herself on yours and to discover the positive vibes on every single thing.

Amanda was very friendly and professional, I felt at ease during our sessions as it was so easy to talk to Amanda, she provided such a welcoming atmosphere. Amanda was very knowledgeable and provided material for the sessions as well. I would definitely recommend Amanda.

Extremely knowledgable and understanding. Was made to feel very comfortable when discussing issues that were uncomfortable to talk about. I feel as if the sessions have helped me enormously.

He puts you at ease and makes you feel welcome from the start. He interacts and gives sound feedback. I was cautious to begin this process. It has only just started but I feel positive about the outcomes.

Clive was really very calm, considered and kind in helping me deal with the things I had on my mind. I feel he was honest and to the point. He was also super punctual.

Cyrous has been very helpful, very professional and very welcoming.

I found Carolina a very kind and caring therapist who made me feel comfortable every time I saw her. I would highly recommend her if you're looking for a psychologist.

Elizabeth is very understanding, patient, a good listener and puts in perspective things you may not be able to see. Talking therapy was incredibly helpful because it felt like progress was made after each session. She was so easy to talk to that the sessions just blew by! I liked her approach to analysing the things I would say. I liked her honesty and the way she was open to telling me what she thought. Because of this, I found her trustworthy. It's clear that Elizabeth has a wide breadth of knowledge on the subject of therapy. She made me feel safe and comfortable in our sessions in a way you would feel with a friend. I cannot recommend Elizabeth enough!

Julie fully understood what I was going through and was able to look at the bigger picture to help me understand my challenges. She combined theory to give me tools to recognise when I need to make changes.

Professional warm knowledgable, so easy to open up to and chat about anything.

Jo combines a very high emotional intelligence with professionalism and kindness. Starting therapy was not an easy decision for me, however Jo made me feel like I was on an adventurous journey of getting to know myself. She helped me discover new perspectives on many aspects of life and my own self, she encouraged me to work through various levels of my unconscious. And, despite the unavoidable emotional roller coaster that comes with such a process, it felt very easy and natural. Thank you.

Heidi makes me feel so welcome and relaxed. I feel at complete ease in her company and she helps to recognise things that I had never realised before that help me grow and improve as a person. She's absolutely amazing!!

Supportive and calming. Nigel's approach helped me to discuss issues and find resolution.

Diane developed a rapport very quickly and we just talked about my issues. Conversation with Diane didn't feel like therapy but now I am more confident and relaxed most of the time. I believe my relationship is better than it has ever been. I am now venturing into a new career that I have wanted to try for a long time but did not think was possible for me.

Nigel is definitely experienced with family issues and is very capable and bringing out key information. He provided insight about myself both for my intimate and family relationships.

Great listener and I felt he gave great insight into my issues. Cleared the "clouds" and gave me an insight of myself I hadn't been able to formulate, analyse and articulate before now. Empathetic and excellent.

Kaukab has been immensely helpful in my journey towards better mental health. She has encouraged me, seemed to be able to ask questions that quickly get to the heart of the issue (even when I haven't known what that was) and been very perceptive in her insights. She is easy to talk to and it's definitely worth spending the money on each session with her. We have been tackling issues surrounding my low self esteem which has had a really positive impact on dealing with my depression. With her support I hope to be successful in trying to come off my medication this year. After each session I come away with ideas of things to try, and I can honestly say that working on these areas has been key to my improvements. Thank you Kaukab for all your help so far.

John is an intelligent, empathetic, non judgemental therapist who really helped myself and my partner understand our relationship from a new perspective that enabled us to work through some problems. Highly recommended.

Sarah is very easy to talk to, and was really good at guiding me through my thinking and challenge me on my behaviours with the techniques she uses. Sarah is a brilliant listener; she listens attentively and takes in quite a lot and remembers all the details for the next session. Sarah was able to put things into perspective for me, and was able to unpick all the conflicting emotions I had. Things became much clearer as the sessions progressed. Sarah doesn't specialise in one particular area - she is quite versatile, and has various techniques to use in different situations. I have already recommended Sarah to other people, and would definitely recommend her certainly and at least for the areas which I needed help with, namely relationship problems and anger management.

I guess it goes without saying that Joanne is a great listener and quickly tuned in to my issues and in particular helped me to recognise where I needed to change my mind-set. She was helpful in pointing me toward mechanisms for dealing with concerns that had become exaggerated in my thinking. Joanne cleverly structured our sessions to draw out various aspects of my anxieties and through that enabled me to arrive at a more logical and positive view of my experiences of the last eighteen months. I found her easy to talk to, even on the subjects I had found difficulty in properly facing on my own. Importantly, she was constructive, supportive and showed me a path to thinking more clearly about a challenging phase of my life.

Able to help in making sense of things that really worry and bothered me and rationalising thoughts, but was able to give tools to do this and use in everyday life and situations.

Raymond is extremely kind and very easy to talk to. He cares about your well-being, is very patient and can work around you. 100% recommend.

Gaynor is a very good listener. She is warm, caring and very understanding. Nature very gentle. She's able to get defrag (the way I decsribe how I feel after my sessions) me and I leave in such a happy and light feeling.

Claudia provided me with a safe haven in my week of non-judgement and brilliant guidance. She listened and spoke with such care and thought, ensuring each session was helpful to my personal journey. When I started sessions my life felt like it was falling apart but time with Claudia helped me reach a healthy and successful perspective and some major life milestones. I could not recommend Claudia more highly to anyone looking for a proactive, experienced and understanding counsellor for whatever is going on in your life.

Tania offers a very relaxed and cosy therapy setting, and she is excellent at giving practical guidance for using DBT skills to improve interpersonal relationships. For me personally I have been able to see the benefits right from the first session, and whilst in the sessions we have addressed some difficult and troubling issues, I have left every session feeling more positive than at the beginning.

Jo has been extremely easy to talk to about all aspects of my problems and was very insightful about how I should rationalise each situation I encounter which makes me anxious. Highly recommended and extremely grateful for all the help, advice and guidance provided.

Chris is calm and very dedicated as a therapist. He was very understanding with me and the issues I experienced.

Christina was very welcoming and open to listen and comforting in that I didn't feel I had to hold back on anything I needed to say, and whatever the subject was at the time Christina would let me talk, cry and get angry at times to express my emotions in a way that made me feel relaxed and at ease. After having counselling previously elsewhere to which I didn't feel 100% comfortable with or that I achieved what I needed to, I was in no doubt that when I got to where I felt I needed to with Christina I was a different person both mentally and physically.

Guy is just so easy to talk to, but he doesn't push the conversation. Made us both feel at ease from the start, and by the end of just a few sessions, he made us feel like it was just a casual chat...but it was so helpful.

Great listener, always positive when those around you are negative, some great techniques for improving your mood. Karole provided me with clarity on my situation guiding me to a meaningful and lasting resolution. Without doubt I would recommend Karole.

She was very helpful with a lovely personality.

A wonderfully caring disposition is always a great start when you desperately need help and Patricia has that in bucket loads. Every meeting with Patricia was progressive and she helped bring me back from the depths of despair, self-loathing and thoughts of self-harm to a much brighter place with a more positive outlook on life. Patricia is a great listener who helped me to start loving myself again and with her help, good friends and family behind me my recovery has been amazing. I will never forget the things Patricia has done to help me, she is a wonderful, kind and thoughtful lady. Thank you again Patricia.

Very open and uses a structured approach to her work.

Jenny has been really great with counselling incorporating CBT. While demonstrating care and sympathy she helped me apply logic and reasoning as to where my mind has been unhelpful.

Maha is extremely approachable, caring and patient. Working with Maha enabled me to assess my current situation with an independent person and talk through how I was feeling and why. I was able to manage a stressful time in my life and felt that Maha understood and supported me.

Raymond's qualities is that he listens and has an open mind about what is troubling you. He is experienced not only in his methods of healing your mind but also he's a person who has had experience at life, so there's nothing that won't shock him not only as a therapist but as a human being, and he doesn't judge you no matter what you have been or are going through!

She made the biggest difference to my world! Thanks for being there, listening and pointing me in the right direction, being able to past the past.

I had no doubts about Simon being a gifted counsellor from the moment we met. Simon is experienced, calm and empathetic. We got to the root causes of my short-term and long-term stress triggers quickly, allowing time to think through doable actions needed to give me the results I needed. Thank you Simon.

Chris is an outstanding professional. He demonstrated extensive knowledge, empathy, compassion, kindness and patience which enabled me to regain my confidence and learn new ways to grow as a mum and wife. My sessions with Chris have been the best investment when I thought all was lost. He encouraged and recognised when I had made changes. A hugely positive experience. Thank you.

Very approachable and helpful.

As well as being a good listener she is very proactive in helping me move forward in life after having a difficult past. She has taught me coping mechanisms and given me a stronger sense of self-esteem. Issues have been resolved with her help and ways of dealing with situations that aren't able to be changed. I highly recommend her.

She was empathetic, she was an excellent listener and she provided me with means to move forward with my issues.

Konstandina was very easy to talk to and had a very quiet way of explaining things. She was very positive and helped me enormously with my particular problem. She has a very cheerful disposition.

Karen is enabling me to talk about some very difficult experiences in my life. She is helping me to look at what effects my mood and what causes me to feel low and strategies to help with this. She is very experienced in her profession and I feel this was an important quality for me.

Jo is an amazing therapist. Her natural approach makes you very comfortable and her knowledge is excellent. Jo always gives value. Every session I've walked out with new tools to try and I've learned something new. The tools and advice is always based on research and I have found very effective. Jo is an amazing support, advisor, teacher and helper. Jo helps you to shed light on darkness so you can walk a little more freer, confident and easy.

Attentive, challenging, warm and professional.

Friendly, patient, flexible, thoughtful, seems to genuinely care, range of experience and skills which are all beneficial to counselling, available at good times, would highly recommend to anyone.

She is very understanding and obviously had a great deal of knowledge in her field. She listens and also asks pertinent questions that seem to take me to areas that I need to go to, and perhaps wouldn't explore without this guidance.

She is an excellent listener and has a great memory for what we have discussed in previous sessions. Her style of counselling is supportive and she offers valuable guidance without instructing me what to do, which I would find unhelpful. She leaves the tone of the session up to me which is useful as it allows me to express myself without feeling pushed towards a certain way of thinking. She is understanding and personable, and is able to offer insight into things which I did not realise about myself until she opened those doors.

Very easy to talk to.

I saw a few therapists before I found Myriam. She was a good match for me. I liked her approach - understanding but firm. No sugar coating - exactly what I needed.

So glad we found John, my 17 year old daughter was suffering with terrible anxiety before she started her therapy sessions. She found that John put her at her ease and very easy to talk to, after every session she would come out as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. It's so lovely to have my daughter so relaxed, happy and with a much more positive outlook on life. I don't think we would have got this far so quickly if it wasn't for John. I cannot thank John enough for all his help and support, money well spent as far as we are concerned.

Catherine is super empathetic and has always made me feel super comfortable in telling her just about anything, without feeling like I'm being judged. She offers great insight into my issues, whilst still being a great listener, would highly recommend!

Reflects on what has been heard and helps to interpret what that might mean without any judgement.

Patricia is very positive and easy to talk to, which created a very relaxed, trusting and non-judgmental atmosphere during the sessions. Step by step, with Patricia's careful listening and thoughtful questions I was able to look at my situation from a completely different point of view, which was a game changer. Talking to her made me see life changing events very clearly and not as scary as before. I also got a few very useful tips on how to deal with feelings like guilt and how to approach some decision making situations - these techniques are going to be used in my everyday life from now on. She is also very encouraging and supportive - and that helped me go back on a positive track and start gaining my confidence back. The sessions were well structured and I was looking forward to each one of them, thank you very much again!

John showed patience, understanding and empathy during his meetings with me. I felt comfortable talking to him and he never made me feel awkward. John is a wonderful listener and gives constructive feedback which I used to help me make progress and move forwards. John didn't give unrealistic ideas or suggest anything that he knew wouldn't be acceptable to me. He was always mindful of my needs, wishes and personality and worked with me to create and move towards achievable results, whilst also being a voice of reason. Talking to John helped me gain clarity of thought and I felt able to accomplish more than I expected I perhaps would.

I was in a very dark place when I met up with Rebecca, struggling with a sudden breakup. Rebecca saw me at my worst. The tools Rebecca had, were offered to me which have helped me cope with my trauma, I'm now going in the right direction with thanks to Rebecca for helping me get there.

She was easy to talk to and offered great help and assistance for me and I found the sessions to be very valuable.

Cristina has been very easy to talk to from the very first session. She is very engaging and caring. She adjusts the sessions based on my needs and emotional state. Sometimes suggesting breathing, calming and relaxing techniques and pertinent readings to optionally practice in-between sessions. She has provided me with a lot of insight and support, and I have seen changes happening already over a short period of time. She has also been very flexible and accommodating around my working/travelling schedule. I would highly recommend Cristina as a therapist.

Cristina has shown an extraordinary ability to help me discover, understand and heal myself with warmth, humour and patience. Wary of resistance she goes with the ebbs and flows of therapy with natural awareness. The dream analysis has proved extremely interesting and revealing and has greatly helped me uncover and reveal past memories and trauma in a truly insightful way which I feel is rapidly helping in my healing and avoidance of self destructive tendencies.

Very understanding person that allows you to feel safe and be comfortable talking about your problems. Would highly recommend.

Lucy has always made me feel very comfortable, when I have been talking to her about my problems and concerns. I understand that if Lucy has any concerns about me, then she will have to seek advice. I have always found it easy to open up to Lucy.

Christina was so helpful and non judgemental. She was warm, but professional and gave me space to express myself. This experience has provided me with life long tools to help me be more mindful, calm and happy. I felt respected and safe and the positive impact this has had on me and my family is invaluable.

So easy to talk to. I was very sceptical about the Idea of seeing a therapist but the benefits were huge. Can't thank her enough.

Ilse is very good at picking up on what is not being said but is obviously a problem. She then draws it out of you and it can be discussed at a level you are ready for. I do find the sessions definitely a lot of help. I will continue seeing Ilse for a while yet.

Stephanie was very helpful and friendly. She has helped me a lot. If I ever needed to see a counsellor again it would be Stephanie and I wish her the best.

Carol is extremely good at using lucid terms, to articulate what is happening to me. She offers practical and simple solutions that are easy to enact while I endeavour to work on how to move forward with life. I do not feel rushed to create change, however. Carol also has helped by creating a space where I do not feel like my problems are insurmountable, or idiotic.

Julie is very empathetic and warm and makes you feel at ease. Julie has an amazing ability to understand you and make you see for yourself, things you perhaps already knew but couldn't work out, and helped me discover things I hadn't realised. Julie is like a good friend that you go and see and always feel better when you leave her.

Rebekah instantly put me at ease, which allowed me to talk openly about my ongoing anxiety issues. After a thorough discussion, we agreed on a range of 'behavioural experiments' which mainly consisted of travel and being away from my 'safe places'. I was able to make considerable progress with my longstanding anxiety and the combination of discussion and planned activities was key for me to allow change to occur. Rebekah was both supportive and also challenging (in a good way) and I found myself talking freely about my worries and my successes. The CBT provided by Rebekah has been invaluable for me personally.

Very relaxing and didn't feel judged. Would recommend Marjorie to anyone and everyone. She really helped me deal with my issues and I'm eternally grateful xx.

He allowed time for us to talk and was very fair and succinct with his comments. For my part I found that I was able to lose anger that was underlying my situation which I didn't really understand I had, and understood a bit better my relationship. Things have improved and it is ongoing work.

Approachable, very insightful and empathetic. I'm finding her approach works really well for me and is helpful.

Having been sent as a child into a family therapy unit, and subsequently sent to sessions when I developed M.E. my faith in counsellors was pretty fragmented. I wasn't sure what to expect. Its been nearly 6 months now and I feel like a weight has been taken from my mind. I probably couldn't offer the right words to qualify my appreciation of finally finding someone who can answer the questions I've carried with me. So very thankful.

Very friendly and easy to talk to.

I have suffered with periodic bouts of severe depression for many years in spite of seeing other well qualified therapists. When I first met Ann Marie Terry I was again finding everyday life a struggle and was in danger of slipping back into a bad depressive episode, but did not want to go back onto medication. Ann Marie brought her years of experience, infinite patience and understanding to help me both understand the origins of my depression and develop tools that would enable me to manage it with a view to avoiding the onset of future serious episodes. Thanks to Ann Marie I have completed and attained my degree, something that I thought was impossible. I can now see a future for myself at last and am starting to have dreams and develop plans for that future. I cannot thank her enough for what she has done for me. I strongly recommend her to you.

Courtenay was able to put me at ease very naturally from the first sessions. Talking to Courtenay was a pleasure as he seemed genuinely interested in the discussions and he was often able to give me insightful new points of view on the matter. He has been able to convey important messages without however pushing me to follow them. I think more importantly, he was able to communicate with me on an emotional level. I am fully satisfied of my therapy with Courtenay, who represented for me a therapist but also a friend.

John is a fantastic listener and really does his best to understand your situation and help you find a resolution to your problems. He really helped me out of a dark place.

I was really pleased with Bhavna and would definitely recommend her. My reason for contacting her was due to the psychological effects of going through chemotherapy as this was confounding my emotional instability (borderline personality disorder) - Bhavna was able to get me back on track with my treatment and coached me through to the end so that I attended all sessions; I don't think I would have been able to do this on my own. The nine sessions were targeted and focused on the present which was exactly what I needed.

I found Rebekah knowledgable, approachable and able to offer good advice. There is no doubt that she was a major factor in my recovery. I recommend her without reservation.

First of all Nicky is probably the easiest person to talk to I have met. Her ability to allow you to relax and find many of your own solutions through general conversation is nothing short of amazing. A true star.

Joanne was very easy to talk to and listened very well. She didn't put words in my mouth, she wasn't judgmental, and I felt very comfortable and safe saying whatever I needed to. Joanne helped me realise a lot of things about myself and gave me great help and advice to move forward.

Excellent listener who helped me understand my anxiety and then worked with me to build a strategy to start coping and turning my anxiety into a positive.

Anita was the perfect therapist for me. She listened attentively, shows true concern and compassion and supported me to see a 'way through' a very challenging time.

Bina is an excellent listener. She is really good at making you feel like you can talk about anything in a non judgmental way. She uses questioning to really get you to explore your own thoughts and feelings and is great at linking the emotional to the physical. I feel physically and emotionally healed after my time with her. Thank you!

Joanne provided invaluable clarity and insight about my thought patterns and behaviour during a very difficult time for me, which made it all a lot easier. I had never experienced a real loss or grief before and she helped me understand why I was feeling how I was and that it was all pretty normal. Her extensive knowledge of mindfulness strategies has given me a toolbox of ways to help myself and thanks to her I'm feeling a lot more positive about the future. I also feel that these strategies will make a huge difference to how I manage stress in my busy job, making a long term difference to my life. She's a kind, down to earth, compassionate professional who is able to get to the crux of the issue (which you often aren't aware of yourself) during those precious 50 minutes.

I wanted a therapist to talk to me as well as listen. I get good advice from her and so far I have taken aboard what she has said, which has been very helpful in my thinking process. Thank you Bhavna.

Malgorzata is compassionate, insightful and very gentle with her probing questions. She gives you space to discover your true self. She is fantastic!

Sara made me feel comfortable to enable me to talk openly and freely. Her work has helped me open my eyes to certain things from the past.

Good understanding and approach.

Tracey was calming, patient and kind. She helped me to talk about things openly but in my own time. She gave me exercises and techniques to work with and I really did feel better after a few sessions, which Tracey had said would happen. I would highly recommend Tracey.

This was my first time going for therapy, and I did not regret it. Jo is very kind, cheerful and non-judgemental. I felt incredibly at ease during the sessions. I cannot thank her enough for her help.

Good listener, always on time, gave me tasks to do each week which helped me get motivated.

I initially left a message for Julie to get help with the loss of my Dad, as I was really struggling to cope and it was massively impacting on my life. Julie then phoned me back and it was clear from the start that she was supportive, knowledgeable and truly understood the issues I was going through. We arranged a first session and it was clear that Julie was very insightful, not only about the process I was going through, but also the way in which my personality and drivers were impacting on my ability to cope. This insight meant that she adapted her approach specifically to my needs rather than use the standard practices that would generally be used to deal with bereavement. This was essential to my progress because I would not have progressed as well, if Julie hadn't spotted quickly that I needed a different form of counselling. I'm continuing counselling sessions with her now to explore some issues that arose during my bereavement counselling. I can't thank her enough for the positive impact she has had on my life and I cannot recommend Julie highly enough to those who are looking for some life changing support.

I have just finished seeing Marga for an anxiety condition that had been dogging me for a few years. I saw two CBT therapists before Marga, before making my mind up that she was the one I felt most at ease with. From my first session she was lovely, very easy for me to unload what was on my mind, she never judged me and gave me some really good advice going forward. They say time is a healer and I spent a year and a half in CBT and genuinely feel with time and a good counsellor I have come out the other end. I feel happy with little to no anxiety and I certainly don't need medication any longer. Marga I would like to say thank you for your time and for your advice and for your shoulder, you have been wonderful for me. Many thanks again JC :)

Calm and easy to talk to and even though I cannot get to meetings with her as my work is not allowing it at the moment, I find myself still thinking what would Melanie say to me about that. She has left a massive impression on me and I wish I could continue to see her. Hopefully in the future I will, as her sessions were extremely valuable to me in helping me on many issues.

Rachel listens and approaches every issue with depth, empathy and understanding. I find Rachel down to earth, and free of platitudes and buzzwords. She doesn't try to fix you, she tries to help you understand yourself, and your situation.
