"this is exact type of niche support I needed whilst waiting for my longer term support. I am now engaging with a Psychiatrist for more specialised support that my brain needs but this fit perfectly for in between. The tools have been helpful and I am going to continue to use them throughout to refresh my brain. This support has really helped me in terms of reflection."

They have been nothing short of exceptional. Their thoughtful guidance, practical strategies, and empathetic approach have equipped me with tools that I know will carry me confidently into the next chapter of my life. They offered such a great range of techniques to explore, always tailored to what I needed in the moment, and I genuinely don’t know what these past two weeks would’ve looked like without his support.

"I really like how you have nurtured me and been there emotionally. It has been a great the way you have prompted me to reflect on myself and feel good about myself. I feel so much better, thank you"
