My sessions with Beverly helped me feel listened to and acknowledged, as well as allowing me to talk through my problems. I felt reassured by Beverly's kind nature and helpful words.

I always feel better after talking to Beverly, without fail. She is kind, compassionate and great at both listening and advising. Even if she doesn't know about a topic, she's willing to look into it further for better advise.
Thanks to Bev for your help and support!

Started this therapy with little or no hope. My therapist listened and gave me breathing exercises etc to do which calmed my anxiety
I've since picked up a volunteer job and my life is moving fwd not backwards
