One of the best things I have ever done, being matched with Florbela has made the process of therapy even easier. The worksheets provided get into the nitty gritty so you are able to expand on things during a session. so polite and approachable. Quite frankly, you wouldn't want anyone else to accompany you on your journey.

Florbela had been a light in dark waters of my traumatic experience. I was always looking forward to talk to her. She is fully present, aware of the context, knows how to keep healthy pace, as well as boundary. Especially with impatient, restless, traumatized high achiever . She made me feel safe when going slow and that was exactly what I needed.

I am already starting to take action on things impacting my life as a result of our sessions. It has opened up my thinking and reflecting on things I need to improve on. Thank you!

I strongly recommend Florbela. I feel heard and understood and more comfortable to open up to her every time we meet. If I ask questions or start doubting myself, she always takes the time to think through her answer and go in detail, not just scratching the surface. I feel like she tells me the truth with compassion, not just what I want to hear. For me, that builds trust.

The degree of empathy and true desire to help one that Florbela has is something either that my past therapists were missing, or didn't have enough of. I've come a long way in my healing and it definitely wouldn't have been possible without her.

Florbela has helped me find creative ways on discovering myself and what motivates my behavior and actions. I appreciated how we did the values work which has given me an idea of my backbone as a human being. I also enjoyed our conversations on boundaries and what composed my inner core. She has guided me into choosing a healthier version of myself and I hope to walk that road through and through.

Florbela has helped me so much in the last few months and still is, she has helped me understand parts of myself that I haven’t been able to understand before, I’ve tried other therapists in the past but never felt I could connect properly and really let them in but with florbela from the word go that all changed, she’s incredible and because of her I am enjoying every part of my healing journey and getting to know myself better!

I haven’t counted, but have had probably 10 therapy sessions with Florbela now.
She is always calm and in a great mood, a great listener, very good timing and very tolerant. I never doubt her expertise and she’s always ready to develop new individual solutions as well. She’s of great help to me and manages to quickly summarise the gist of a problem/worry. I can only recommend everyone to seek her advice, you won’t regret it.

Florbela has a beautifully calm and reassuring presence. I have only had a couple of sessions with her and already feel very comfortable. She also sends regular check in's. I'm very grateful to have her as my therapist and feel as though she will help me through my process.

I‘m so happy I made the step to choose Florbela as my therapist, since she got recommended to me through a friend. He listens, can read between the lines, supports, says the right things in the right moments (even if you don’t wanna hear it, but you know it’s true and can only help you ;)) and you can laugh with her. She shows compassion, gives you strength, can calm you down and has some really good tips. It’s my first time doing therapy and I have the strong feeling of being on a good (sometimes hard) way towards my goal of healthy relationships and having my life together. And all this through having Florbela by my side, thank you so much!

Have had about 2 months worth of sessions with Florbela now regarding my issues with binge eating and they’ve given me the push I needed to finally start regaining control and seeing the progress that I had been struggling to make for years now. Florbela is enthusiastic, interactive and is a great listener. And it always helps that she has a smile! Would totally recommend
