Stress and Anxiety Counselling Testimonials

At the age of 18, I decided to tell my parents that I was gay and this wasn’t an easy decision. It was hard for me to say and hard for them to hear. When I went to see a counsellor, I found someone who really listened and helped me look at my life with a new perspective and understanding. She gave me support in a way that I never thought was possible and I cannot thank her enough. It is still not an easy ride for me or for my family but at least we are talking about this in the open and they have now accepted the situation. My whole family support me and this couldn’t have happened without their support.

My son is dependent on drugs and consulting a counsellor has given me a greater understanding of his situation plus some guidance as to where to seek additional help for him and for all of our family. It is reassuring to know that she is always there to give advice when needed.

I had a car accident, after which I couldn’t sleep at night and kept on thinking back to the incident. My father suggested that I go and see a Trauma counsellor and to start off with I wasn’t very keen. But I did go and he has helped me to understand why I am feeling like I am and I am really better able to cope with my life now. I can’t thank you enough as it was such a scary experience.

‘I wasn’t sleeping at night and was suffering panic and anxiety attacks. I went to the doctor and he gave me sleeping pills which did help but I didn’t want to become dependent on them. He then suggested I could go and see a stress counsellor as there might be some underlying issues. I was hesitant at first but I felt comfortable immediately. I have been working through some of my stress-related issues and I have had to re-evaluate my life plan as it really wasn’t working. I now keep a stress diary, eat healthily and exercise every day. Simple things that make all the difference. I now have my life back’.

My husband died 3 months ago from prostate cancer and I really did not know which way to turn. My doctor suggested I see a bereavement counsellor and I have been seeing him for the past 2 months. I now feel that I am now beginning to come to terms with my loss. His sensitivity and caring is second to none.

I was made redundant 6 months ago and became extremely depressed. My wife suggested that I go and see Carole and for the first time, I can now see my way forward with a new life plan in place. I am now positive about the future and my ability to go forward. With gratitude.
