Counselling Network – Find the right counsellor for you

I've changed in so many ways, I feel so much lighter. It's not so much of a traffic jam in my head now. I have been in counselling since I was 18 (now age 38) and this is the only one that's ever worked, it's been life changing. I’ve never done the exposure hierarchy before and that really worked for me to tackle my anxiety rather than just coping strategies.

A friendly, professional service that helped me get my worries into perspective and develop more positive ways of looking at things. The practical tips for managing anxiety proved useful. I’m very glad I took the step towards CBT that led to me meeting Andrew.

I am very grateful to Julia for her reliable, empathic and skilled approach to my therapy with her. She has enabled me over the weeks to challenge my own thought processes

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 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."

Karen Jackson "Harry has an insightful, gentle presence with a broad range of transferable tools. I had the great fortune to meet Harry at a wellbeing fayre and instantly connected, which is very easy to do, he being such a pure and caring soul. His coaching was very relevant, insightful, and left me with many techniques that I can readily apply in my life. Highly recommend this learned, heart centered coach."

Without Andrew, I’m not sure I’d be here. I had been suicidal and in a pretty sorry state, but with his experience, patience and guidance, I’m still here. My wife has her husband back and my children their father.

“From the very first session, I felt held and heard by Caroline in a way I hadn’t experienced before. There was a depth of care, stillness and respect that allowed me to speak about my husband and my grief without fear or rushing. It felt like a space where my loss truly mattered, where nothing needed to be fixed, and where I could finally let my guard down. I had never gone so deep, so quickly, and yet it felt completely safe.”

Julia has been amazing. My mindset has changed since speaking with her, I am able to regulate my emotions a lot easier and feel able to manage my thoughts.

"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."
