Counselling Network – Find the right counsellor for you

"I honestly Believe that Paula working with my daughter really had an impact, she is doing really well, and I will always be grateful"

I am very grateful to Sharon for the effort she made with me. I have seen OHU counsellors and NHS counsellors too but I would say from the CBT point of view Sharon was really good in her field, she was understanding, knowledgeable and professional. And by far the best therapist I have interacted with on a CBT front. My panic attacks and anxiety were illnesses related and very severe. I would definitely recommend engaging in a few sessions especially if you are experiencing complex issues.

When I met Sharon I thought she didn’t look or act what I thought a counsellor would be like…I immediately felt a trust. Each week I felt happier. Work paid for my session and on my 8th and final session I was walking on air and returned to work after 7 months of being signed off! I can’t thank Sharon enough.

"Harry has made a huge impact on my personal growth and development, he has helped me breach my comfort zone and always given me a way forward to focus on building my confidence! I can't recommend him enough, he is extremely welcoming, kind, and a great teacher!"

"Reena was incredibly knowledgeable and created a safe space in which all members of the group felt comfortable. Our group were able to experience a number of different breath-work practices with journalling and guided discussion been used to reflect on how these practices might be used and the physical and emotional journey it created for each individual. By the end of the course, we felt equipped with a new set of tools to help us as individuals better navigate the strains of daily life."

Shabana is one of those rare people who truly listens and understands without judgement. From the very first session, she created a calm, safe space where I felt completely at ease to open up. She has a real talent for gently exploring and intuitively recognising the deeper areas where she can help you work through challenges and reframe your thinking, without ever making you feel pushed. Her support came at a time when life felt overwhelming, and she helped me slowly rebuild my confidence.

“I had been struggling with attachment issues, anxiety, and a sense of lack of purpose, which deeply affected my life and made dating particularly difficult. My sessions with Reena were truly transformative. Through our work together, I gained a deeper understanding of myself and uncovered that the anxiety, overwhelm, frustration, and attachment struggles I was experiencing stemmed from unresolved grief I had been carrying for many years. Reena helped me process and release this grief."

"I have had one session of life coaching with the lovely Harry and already my situation has improved! Harry is a great listener, and his knowledge and wisdom shone through when helping me with a particularly difficult problem I have been dealing with. Together we came up with a plan, which I've started implementing already, and it's amazing how things have started falling into place so soon. I'd recommend this service to anyone who is finding life hard and needs a new perspective on life."

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for helping me to see me for who i am. And for making me see it's okay to not be okay. You may say I've done all the work. But my journey of discovery, to find the real me...only began because of you.

Meeting regularly with Piers through a difficult period of work-related anxiety has been enormously helpful. Piers has a deep and rich understanding of psychological theory and therapeutic approaches and has flexibly applied these with me as my needs have evolved. Piers is an attentive listener and I have always felt heard, understood and supported whilst also gently challenged when appropriate. I highly recommend Piers as a counsellor and therapist both for his skill and his kindness and can sa
