‘‘I was apprehensive to begin with about the whole therapy process, I will admit, but being able to communicate with Barbara has provided a greatly appreciated outlet and source of reflection for this difficult period in my life. Just knowing I have someone else to talk to about things I'd otherwise be ashamed to share has made all the difference. Her expertise and ability to listen on top of that, though, have made me appreciate therapy in quite a profoundly different light.’’
Jay
‘‘ I just wanted to thank you for all your help and support throughout our counselling sessions, before our sessions I was stuck in a relationship I didn't want to be in and I didn't have much confidence in myself.
Each week I was building more confidence and finding my voice again, since then I have ended the relationship because I now know that my needs matter and I can't just stay in a relationship to keep the other person happy living life like this will always lead into depression. Also you taught me strategies to help me deal with depression. I'm now excited to rewrite my life in a much more positive and exciting way so thank you for helping me believe in myself again’’

“Barbara is a very supportive and compassionate therapist.
She is a great listener and asks questions that shift your perspective of a situation.
Barbara provides a safe space to chat and sets you on the right path to acceptance & healing, with a plan for the future.”
Megan
“I had my first therapy experience with Barbara and I didn't know what to expect from therapy or even what I really wanted to achieve. I only knew that I needed someone to talk to and to guide me through some new experiences that I was having in my life. It proved to be a great match and Barbara was so friendly and compassionate while still being professional and has helped me re-discover myself and ask myself the right questions. By the end of my therapy sessions with her I feel a renewed individual, I have taken control of my life and learned how to manage my own expectations. I can only hope that I will be able to maintain this using the mechanisms learned with Barbara and I know that she will help many more people. I completely and full heartedly recommend her!”
Lori
“Barbara is very attentive, she creates a safe and very comfortable space in which I can express myself and be receptive to her input.’’
Anna
‘‘ Hi Barbara,
Today I took an action that I will likely explore in our next session - feel it has come from a place of healing and I just wanted to reach out to say thank you for your time and help so far this year. It has really started to feel quite transformative. I understand sometimes therapy can be a difficult process for some people when finding the right person to help and I feel fortunate to have been able to work with you through it all. It’s really appreciated and I look forward to the next session.’’
Micheal
‘‘I had a great experience working with Barbara. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed and showed me ways of thinking that I had never considered before, and gave me a whole new outlook on many aspects of my life. I would not hesitate anyone considering therapy to speak to her.’’
