Sian Jones
“I was completely new to therapy and quite apprehensive but Sian immediately made me feel at ease. From our first session, she gave me the time and space to talk openly, listening with genuine care and empathy whilst helping me recognise underlying causes of my anxiety that I hadn’t previously been aware of. We are now working through CBT which has been difficult at times, but she has always been patient and explains things in a way that makes them easier to understand and apply to real life situations. I’ve seen so many positive changes, not least the impact this has had on my teenage son’s anxiety as well as my own, which has been invaluable. I now genuinely look forward to our sessions and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sian to anyone looking for a compassionate, down-to-earth therapist who offers practical, honest support.”

Emma Parkins
“I was only able to afford one session but she listened to me carefully and asked one simple question about my addiction problem, it changed my whole view and week later I decided to give up on my addiction. It’s over 6 months now that I haven’t touched it and it’s a complete new life I’m experiencing at the moment and more hopeful about the future. She’ll be the first person I’ll get in touch when I need some support.”

Victoria Greenwood
“I had a really positive experience with Victoria and found our sessions extremely helpful. She is very knowledgeable, understanding and, most importantly, very easy to talk to. From the beginning, I felt comfortable speaking openly without feeling judged. Victoria really took the time to listen and understand what I was saying, while also giving me useful advice and a different perspective when I needed it and also so tools for situations to help me take time and reflect before acting I came away from the sessions with a much better understanding of things and felt that I had some practical ways to move forward. I genuinely feel that the sessions made a difference, and I’m very grateful for the support Victoria gave me. I would have no hesitation in recommending Victoria to anyone looking for a therapist who is knowledgeable, approachable and genuinely cares about helping people. Thank you”

Jessica Grante
“Jessica listens, thinks, then speaks possitively. She encourages simple slowish steps, whist not being afraid to give a nudge (a nag) to move you on. I'm fully supportive of her approach and the direction she gives. 11 out of 10”

Chantelle Bourne
“I worked with Chantelle Bourne for over a year, and she has truly helped me manage my anxiety and panic attacks significantly, and helped drastically improve my quality of life. I have never been in therapy before so I was really apprehensive but Chantelle made me feel really safe and comfortable. I would like to thank her so much for her help and would highly recommend her to others!”

Chantelle Bourne
“I had numerous sessions with Chantelle across the Spring and Summer of 2025, as well as a top up session later this year. She really helped me in terms of learning and going through my thought processes, as well as listening and helping me know what my trigger points were and how to overcome them. Chantelle is friendly and knowledgeable with a raft of support and coping mechanisms available. Excellent value, I would recommend her without doubt.”

Jo Walmsley
“Jo, my Therapist has been really instrumental in my recovery from a lightning strike injury that almost turned my World upside down. Her techniques are calming, assuring and extremely comforting. She has done really well to aid my cause, taking me from a real phobia of lightning and electrical appliances, fear of storms, to getting my life back. Jo is a real good communicator who is well drilled in how She carries out Her Therapy, and Her setting is really conducive. I will gladly recommend Jo to anyone requiring Her Therapy services.”

Chantelle Bourne
“Chantelle helped me through a number of difficult life encounters, she helped me by providing correct tools, but from my own understanding, she helped me guide myself into the right direction of where I wanted to be. She's extremely kind and warm and is switched on to what is appropriate in the moment, wether that be validation or guidance. She is also flexible and reliable. I recommend Chantelle. Thanks for all your help x”

Beth West
“I attended weekly sessions with Beth whilst I was experiencing a very stressful period in my life. She helped me work through it, giving me practical tools to process the intense thoughts and feelings that I was experiencing. Beth was very supportive and helped bring clarity to a very confusing time in my life. She worked at my pace, with what I had and then once we got to the end, we wrapped up the sessions. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach back out to Beth or recommend her to someone.”

Chantelle Bourne
“I couldn’t recommend Chantelle highly enough. From the very first session, she created such a caring, supportive and completely non-judgemental environment that I immediately felt at ease. I really appreciated that she took the time to understand whether she was the right person for me, as I felt this was so important in building a trusting relationship. She helped me to become truly reflective about myself, while giving me the tools and space to find my own way forward. I’m incredibly grateful for her support and everything I’ve learned through our sessions. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, understanding and genuinely supportive counsellor.”

Chantelle Bourne
“Working with Chantelle has been a genuinely positive experience. From our first session, she made me feel comfortable, listened carefully and took the time to understand how anxiety was affecting different areas of my life. Chantelle is warm, understanding and non-judgemental, and she explains things in a clear and accessible way. I particularly valued the practical nature of our sessions. She helped me understand the patterns behind my anxiety and gave me useful, repeatable strategies for noticing, challenging and reframing unhelpful thoughts. I now feel calmer and much better equipped to manage anxiety when it arises. I would happily recommend Chantelle to anyone looking for compassionate, practical and effective support.”

Jessica Grante
“My sessions with Jessica over the last year have helped me become mentally stronger so that I can better overcome challenges and be kinder to myself when I make mistakes. I’ve been able to better reflect on my thoughts and emotions in various situations which has, in turn, supported me to react and respond more effectively with those around me. During her sessions, I feel listened to and important and also welcome Jessica’s gentle challenging of my thoughts or reflections that has then enabled me to better identity alternative and more healthy ways of thinking and responding to situations and opinions. Although there have been occasional technological issues through no fault of anyone, Jessica has ensured that I have access to my full time slot and provides consistent communication and reminders of sessions which, for me, is an asset!”
