Bobbie is a wealth of knowledge and experience. She has so many different ways of approaching the challenges that I present to her. She listens intently and I always feel seen and heard after our sessions. She has a compassionate and yet no nonsense way of delivering her messages that make me feel like I’m not being babied, but respected. I really enjoy my sessions with her.

I would like to thank Bobby for being super supportive and understanding. Spending time with her helps me to understand more about myself, and she provides me a great safe space to share my deepest thoughts :)

Bobbie is brilliant. She is kind, patient understanding and incredibly empathetic. I was a bit cagy about starting counseling and Bobbie helped me feel comfortable enough to be honest with her. I really value her perspective and insight. Since starting with her 2 weeks ago I have already changed my perspective on things and am less critical of myself because of the advice I have received.

Bobbie is the best. She is down to earth, real, and relatable. She empowers you, tells you what you need to hear, and gives you actionable tips and take always to work on.
