Brilliant therapist, very easy to talk to and offers wonderful advice that has really helped me!

Debbie is extremely personable, patient and professional. This is my first time seeking therapy and I was apprehensive at first, but Debbie has made the process and sessions inclusive, judgement free and has given me the confidence to express myself freely. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone who struggles to express themselves, puts others first and who may think that therapy isn’t for them - therapy is a great way to look after yourself.

This is my first time doing therapy so I have been quite nervous to open up to someone as I’ve been very private particularly the last few years but feeling confident in the support and really appreciate having Debbie there to listen, she really is down to earth and supportive of my healing so thank you
