“I never felt judged or intimidated.. I think the fact that I found it so easy to open up to you shows that there was an instant trust, and the longer time went on I became more and more comfortable.”
“In my life I don’t get many chances to talk to someone without being interrupted or talked over or be not listened to, and it felt like you listened to every word I said which felt nice and helped me be more confident in opening up more.”
“You were able to link feeling and reactions that I was having at the time to things that had happened in the past and you noticed patterns that I hadn’t noticed before. I felt that you understood what I was going through and how I felt about it.”
“I sometimes think I could not have got through everything that has happened in the last year without your help.. having stopped now I think I can progress on my own.. I do think that you being there has been invaluable to me”
“I felt understood, I felt heard, I did not feel ‘judged’.. it was always gentle, acknowledging my feelings, but thought provoking in some way.”
“I was really nervous about coming to counselling, I thought I would just sit in silence the whole time, but I was able to talk through so much with you.. It’s made me realise things that I didn’t think were important”
“The counselling helped me feel a sense of validation.. talking to you made me realise that my feelings do matter and that I had a right to feel the way I felt.”
“I think I definitely benefitted from the counselling. It helped me understand why I feel the way I feel. It also made me more confident in opening up to other people and not hiding how I feel. A lot of the things we spoke about I had been going over in my own head for years, so it was great to have the chance to get another perspective on events that had stuck with me.”
