Counselling Network – Find the right counsellor for you

'Sola is professional and very compassionate. She creates a safe, comfortable space where it feels easy to open up and work through a range of challenges. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking support'.

“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 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.

From adolescent bullying and trauma I have fought feelings of brutal inadequacy and severe lack of self worth. I have felt hopeless and suicidal. Without Sharon’s help, wisdom and knowledge I truly don’t know where I would be. Thank you Sharon for your patience and unrivalled care. Whatever you are suffering from I promise Sharon is the person to seek.

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.

Thank you. I genuinely couldn’t have found a better individual to speak to if I was still searching now. Sharon recognised bits and pieces I hadn’t even thought of before we really got talking. I opened up my world, Sharon listened carefully and acted with consideration not just for me but for those of importance to me. You are an incredibly gifted professional and I would not hesitate in recommending you.

‘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’

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 wanted to share our experience with Reena, who has been working with our son over the past year. She has such a wonderful way with kids, and my son really connected with her right from the start. What really matters to us as parents is that our son genuinely looks forward to his sessions, and we can see how much he's grown and made progress. Reena has earned his trust and their work together has really helped him. He often says that everyone should have someone like Reena in their life."

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.
