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.

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.
