Testimonials

Using testimonials is a delicate matter as many people, understandably, do not want to be able to be identified; this means it is not an option to use mediums such as Google reviews, etc. as  these can identify them. Where written ones are sent to us we only use  first names, or "anon", to ensure comconfidentiality.

I've been lucky enough to benefit from working with Helen for the last fifteen weeks and I couldn't be more thankful with the results. I logged into my first session nervous and very unsure but was instantly put at ease. Her warmth, compassion and humour made talking much easier than I'd imagined. Through working with Helen, I have found myself again and rediscovered my strength and self worth. This has helped me work through areas of my life I wasn't able to handle before. I cannot recommend Helen highly enough.

Given me clarity to recreate myself

Helped me get through an uncertain and scary time.

Helped me get through an uncertain and scary time.

Seeing Francis over the past two years has given me the clarity to recreate myself and my life. I now realise that much of how I was was not really mine- but beliefs I had carried form my upbringing. I have been steadily shedding them and feel much more “myself” no. Its been an enlightening and life-affirming process. He is a wonderful therapist . I feel blessed to have worked with him.”

Dear Helen,

 I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the help that you have given to our darling daughter . 
She has been brought out of a deep, deep well of unhappiness and fear, and now is able to face the world with the tools you have given her.
I'm sure you won't ever tell her that I have written to you, but I am so grateful that you are doing the work you are doing.

Helen helped me manage my anxiety and repair my relationships with my daughter and my partner.

She made me recognise that my feelings matter and helped me to develop boundaries which have positively impacted my life and that of my family.

I highly recommend Helen as a supportive, empathetic and effective therapist. She’s helped me to change my life for the better.
