‘When I first met Heather, I was feeling hopeless and overwhelmed at work and in my personal life. She helped me to unravel my thoughts with kindness & insight and to find the courage to make major changes to my lifestyle & priorities which have truly transformed me. I understand, and even love, myself now thanks to Heather. Above all, she showed me that admitting to vulnerability is my key to staying strong and happy. Her questions and suggestions continue to guide me when I'm having a wobble. Heather is a remarkable lady and a wonderful therapist.’

‘Over the last year I started my journey into recovery from depression and addictions. I had been trapped in these cycles for as long as I could recall and looking back, I would now say that I had reached a crisis point when I started treatment with Heather. Over the past year, I have seen Heather for two courses of therapy and throughout our sessions she gradually helped me make sense of my life experiences and relationships with other people in relation to my depression and addictions. I was able to use our sessions to be more compassionate to myself, while accepting I needed to make changes both within myself and with how I related to other people. I am still on my journey to recovery, but I have learned so much from my sessions with Heather and I will always be grateful for the help she gave me. I would highly recommend Heather as a therapist.’

‘Writing this testimonial for Heather is a pleasure as it goes a small way to thanking her for helping me transform my life. The greatest testament I can give Heather is that I no longer recognise the person that I was before that first session and I'll be forever grateful that our paths crossed. Before working with Heather I felt like I was in a downward spiral, everyday situations were getting harder and harder to get through. I'd get embarrassed if someone spoke to me unexpectedly, I would have to know my escape route from every place I visited and I was convinced that nobody liked me. I was a bundle of stress but that first session with Heather gave me hope. Heather is warm and friendly and created an environment where I felt safe and comfortable to explore and challenge my own thought processes. Heather has great intuition and guided me through my confusion to a place of clarity. There was no set schedule and Heather always allowed me to go at my own pace. I learnt some great techniques that I've built into my everyday thinking which have helped me navigate new situations and achieve things I never thought possible.’

‘Having reached rock bottom in terms of my mental health, I sought assistance from Heather following a personal recommendation from a friend. Over a 4 month period, I began to recognise myself again and I owe so much of that to Heather and her natural ability for listening without judgement and being able to coach people to more positive, present thoughts. Thank you, and here’s to more milestones!’

‘Working with Heather was one of the most rewarding things that has happened to me. When I went to Heather I was struggling with confidence issues, my own sense of self and mild forms of anxiety. But working with Heather meant I was able to overcome these issues. Heather was always an advocate of dedication (I went to a session once a week for 6 months); and I believe it was this dedication that made myself able to make such incredible improvements in such a short space of time. More than this, Heather is personable, professional and will always tailor the sessions towards the temperament you are when you walk in the door. That is, they are completely based around you. She once mentioned that she aims to be like a mirror, and that is a very apt piece of imagery. But not a mirror that looks straight back at you; a mirror that allows you to see and understand yourself that little bit more, so that you are able to grow and progress as an individual. Ultimately, the creation of a strong and trustworthy relationship with Heather allowed me to do the same with myself. As such, I would thoroughly recommend Heather as a therapist. You can approach her in the confidence that if you are both willing to put in the effort, maximum benefits will be reached.’
