Client Testimonials
“It has changed my life completely. It took me 10 years to seek help and guidance, and is the best thing I did for myself.”
Client Testimonials
“It has helped me to manage my own emotions and recognise/communicate my needs to others. My resilience was suffering a lot when I started counseling and since attending I feel much better equipped to bounce back and tackle challenges in life.”
Client Testimonials
“I wish I had had counselling before it has made my life more bearable with my issues I have been listened to without any judgements and never once felt uncomfortable I will continue to have counselling as it has helped me so much. A big thank you to you all!.”
Client Testimonials
“It has given me a sense of consistency of support that I have really needed for my mental health. It has really helped being able to talk honestly in a safe place when I have felt alone. Without it I will have struggled so much more with my emotions and thoughts. And now I have a better understanding of where my struggles began, so I can keep working on them from there.”
Client Testimonials
“It has changed my view of myself quite fundamentally – and given me a sense of self worth. I am only 12 weeks in but I see that once I have processed what it means for me it will also have beneficial impacts on my relationships with others. A huge thank you to all of you running an invaluable service.”
Client Testimonials
“Since I have been having regular counselling sessions I have been able to come to terms with life events, deal with the emotional difficulties and my self confidence has grown. I’m no longer brushed under the carpet, I have a voice and an opinion which I now have the ability to use. My counsellor was amazing, she really helped me find myself and who I am, I’m still learning but compared to where we started I know a lot more about myself. So many aspects to my life and with counselling I learnt how to cope and understand them and why I felt them. I can’t thank my counsellor enough for the help she has provided me with but I will have her on my shoulder during any difficult times ahead.”
Client Testimonials
“Thank you to all concerned. Although I cannot say my dark spells are over. It was lovely to talk to a really understanding person and feel that I am normal and maybe expecting too much of myself.”
Client Testimonials
“It’s had such a positive impact on me, my life and how I’m managing things.”
Client Testimonials
“I found the service invaluable in helping me navigate a really tough time in my life and subsequently exploring underlying factors that affect my thought processes and behaviors. My counsellor was always understanding and helped me immensely in exploring whatever I brought to the table.”
Client Testimonials
“I feel less blown about by the wind of life. I am more sure of myself, of who I am becoming and of the relationships I want in my life. I listen to myself, I am not afraid to be me or to make choices and decisions which others may not approve of … I realise the shallow depth of many of my relationships, and while accepting these relationships for the way they are, I hope to also move on and connect more meaningfully with new people. I don’t feel as fearful or as desperate to find answers, it’s ok to rock up each day and count my blessings”.
Client Testimonials
“Made me feel safe and not alone with thoughts in my mind. Able to feel more confident with how I approach scenarios. Made me feel like I can do things myself without worrying all the time”.
Client Testimonials
“Having that calm, safe, comfortable space and being seen, listened to and cared for gave me strength at a difficult time and more understanding of what l was going through”.
Client Testimonials
“Excellent – flexible when needed, affordable, superb quality of care, I understand myself much better, which has improved my experience of my relationships”.
Client Testimonials
“Just wanted to say thank you, this feels like the start of a very big positive change in my life and my counsellor was so understanding, compassionate and present. After a long time of stumbling my way through services that didn’t help me, My counsellor was the first MH professional that guided me well enough to validate me whilst gently correcting any self-damaging behaviours and they have empowered me to look forward to my future with confidence and curiosity. I am immensely grateful for the help that GCS and my counsellor have given me.”.
