Cecilia has been a life saver for me! When I started talking to her I couldn't get through 15 minutes without crying over my situation. She was able to give me positive, USEFUL feedback while making me feel like what I was going through was normal and surpass-able. I'm in a MUCH better place thanks to her understanding and perceptiveness. I would recommend her to anyone!

For the short while I've been under her care. I would say she reviews anything that I submit and gives me thoughtful insight or asks for me to bring more details about points that could possibly be a source. She's help me further strengthen the bond of my support group and allowed me to break some barriers I unwillingly made. It may take time however, working with her I believe we can find the underlying cause and allow me to break free from my chains.

My first time getting counselling has been a great experience with Cecilia Clowdus. I recommend her 100% she really has a way of making you feel comfortable. I never felt like I was talking to a 'stranger' it felt more like I was talking to a friend. Cecilia really takes her time and brings great points to our conversations. She always knows what to say and how to say it.
