Darnell is a great counsellor and provides feedback from a supportive and non-judgemental perspective. He's extremely responsive via video calls, voice calls and texts. He also provides a lot of feedback and a lot of great ideas of tools and techniques to help reframe my thoughts. I would recommend Darnell to anyone that needs help and a guide through their personal challenges.

I've only had two sessions with Darnell at the time of writing this, but so far he has proved to be an excellent listener. He's supportive, attentive, and has a knack for asking really good questions that make me think about things in entirely new and very productive ways, which is exactly what I think I needed when I joined this website. I've left both sessions feeling much better than I did when they started, with clarity around my state of mind, my emotions, and for what I need to do next to help sort things out!
