Counselling Network – Find the right counsellor for you

Nad is great at what he does. Not only does he listen in a non judgemental way but he also gives practical solutions to problems which is really helpful. He is good at helping you reflect on an issue and come up with a solution and put in practical steps to move forward. I struggled for years to get into exercising but now more motivated for first time in a long time. Thanks for the great support

I just wanted to say a big thank you for the consultation session last week. It was really helpful, quite possibly the most helpful session I’ve had so far regarding my OCD. It was genuinely so insightful and made so much sense to me, and confirmed that I’ve made the right choice in seeking different therapy for my OCD

A breath of fresh air. Guided by Helen’s calm and approachable nature, I was able to open up, process and see clarity in past trauma that I had hidden for years. I looked forward to weekly meets with Helen. Shehelp me lift a dark cloud that often felt all consuming. Non judgemental, personalised therapy sessions have brought clarity and freedom - I am very grateful. Thank you for being patient, kind and understanding. Your time & expertise has made a huge impact.

I spent close to 11 months working with Lisa, and from the beginning she made the sessions feel like a safe and welcoming space. I was able to share thoughts and feelings that I hadn't been able to before and at no point did she make me feel judged or criticised. Overall, the sessions with Lisa led to me making some big changes in my life, she supported me in a way that I didn't feel pressure to do or change anything I wasn't ready for, which has made me feel like the changes can be lasting.

'Have been with Sola for a few months whilst wanting to work through things and she has be nothing but amazing. Very empathic and feel like you are being heard'.

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.

‘This is the best we’ve been in a long time. When I first called, I felt very low and thought we were going to separate. We were living parallel lives but now we feel together. Communication is much better between us’

“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."

As a Uni student I struggle with anxiety and have a dysfunctional family. Working with Kam helped me to understand my triggers, defences and attachment issues. I was able to work on my fears and insecurities without judgement. I felt safe, seen and heard. Kam has a way of making you feel understood and comfortable and less alone. She uses different techniques to help which i found helpful.

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
