Testimonials
“I would highly recommend counselling with Naomi. Having a dedicated safe space where I could discuss and work through my thoughts and feelings was invaluable in getting me through the worst of it.
Also being of non-white heritage, I didn't have to explain the nuances of being an ethnic minority in the UK.
Naomi has been supportive and incredibly insightful, helping me relearn how to prioritise myself in extended times of crisis." Michael
"I would recommend Naomi to someone else for counselling. She has helped me massively to work through some of the difficulties that were presenting for me in my life. Particularly around boundaries both professionally and personally." Nadia
"Naomi listened and was non-judgemental in her approach, I felt heard and understood. My thoughts and feelings were validated. I appreciated the time to focus on me and saw sessions helped me to verbalise and make sense of internal thoughts in a way I had not done so before. Although I regularly came to sessions ‘unprepared’ I always had something to say and left sessions feeling emotionally lighter." Leah
" Naomi was incredibly supportive at one of the most difficult times of my life. I always felt supported even if things were hard to face. I gained useful tools and skills to work on my relationship to myself and others." Gayle
