What clients have said...
"I was struggling with anxiety and finding that it was having an effect on my everyday life. I had never had counselling before and was unsure what to expect, but with Sarah I instantly felt at ease. I was able to open up and discuss my issues, getting to the core of my anxiety. With Sarah's help I have been able to establish self confidence and develop ways of coping with my anxiety. I can't thank Sarah enough for her support and would definitely recommend her services." (L - client March 2022)
Caring for my husband and watching him suffer a horrible death, left me in a very dark place. Counselling was suggested but I rejected the idea. In my professional life, I had usually been the one who listened, I didn’t need to talk to anyone! Eventually, desperation led me to reconsider counselling, although I was very sceptical about it. Fortunately, I met Sarah.
She provided a secure, comfortable environment where I felt able to talk (and cry!). From the beginning there was no pressure. I felt safe and respected. I knew immediately that I could trust Sarah completely and that whatever I said would remain confidential. I can tell Sarah things that I cannot share with others. She never judges me and we explore ways of dealing with my problems. With her help, I am learning to face my demons and deal with my insecurities.
There have been ups and downs on the way but, over time, I have begun to rebuild my life, something I never believed would happen. After each session, I feel I have taken a step forward and feel more positive about the future. I feel very lucky to have Sarah as my counsellor.

"When I first decided to look into counselling services I had no idea what I should look for or whether it was the right thing for me. With no sense of pressure or bias Sarah helped me decide whether counselling would be helpful. She created a non-judgemental, secure atmosphere in which to discuss and explore a whole range of worries and concerns. She has guided me through these in a way that has helped me re-build confidence in my personality and beliefs once again. I am really glad I took a leap of faith at a difficult time and trusted in her professional and yet sensitive approach." (Hazel - client)
