'I had an incredibly positive experience of counselling with Lisa. Something of a lifeline during a very worrying relationship breakdown. Lisa's calm and holistic approach led me through initial crisis management towards picking up some of the deeper behaviours and attitudes which had led to the current sadness. I recommend her services wholeheartedly.'
Client C
'Lisa has been incredible and has given me a lot of support and has made me feel better. I didn't set a goal but I did express an interest in understanding my emotions and the reasons why things have happened - I feel Iike I have done this.'
Client D
'Being able to come to a safe place and talk about things that are bothering me without being judged is absolutely priceless. I have increased self-awareness, reflected on certain issues and learnt to find my own way of dealing with them.'
