Therapy Reviews for Trauma & Psychotherapy

I found Amanda at a time when I felt really low. I’d been affected by bereavement, trauma, a family member discovered cancer and my child developed a chronic health condition all in a short space of time. It all just felt like too much. On the surface I was coping with the day to day, but I was tearful, incredibly anxious, traumatised and wasn’t enjoying life as much as I should. Amanda is warm, kind, intelligent and patient. Through our sessions I felt supported, gained awareness of why I felt the way I did, got perspective on what had happened and developed coping strategies.

I couldn’t ask for more than that! Amanda was always empathetic but not afraid to ask challenging questions when necessary to help identify unhelpful thinking. I looked forward to our sessions where I felt I could be totally open and it was lovely to have a space where I could talk everything through candidly with someone I trusted. I am feeling happy and balanced and am enjoying life and can’t thank Amanda enough for helping me navigate this last year.

I didn’t have any expectations of what therapy could do for me. I went to Maggie because I knew that my lifestyle and general approach to life needed to be changed and that I needed to discuss an extremely distressing experience which had happened to me with a trained professional.

I liked Maggie’s approach, and she made me feel safe and capable of dealing with the issues which I needed and wanted to explore. Over the course of a year I learnt a lot about myself, my reactions to situations and the triggers to those reactions. In particular I started to recognise all of the things which I could change to make my life better.

I now have the tools to be able to deal with any issues and/or problems that may arise. I have made a number of changes to my life some small and some big and all of the areas of my life that I wanted to change (and even those I didn’t know at time needed changing) have changed for the better. I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Maggie and the results speak for themselves.

I came to Judy struggling to understand the impact sexual abuse that had taken place in my childhood had had on me. I knew there were things bubbling below the surface that were weaving their way into how I formed relationships and the way I have behaved since I was a teenager, but I didn’t know what they were or how to deal with them. The hours I’ve spent working with Judy have been the most valuable of my life. Not only did we form a trusting, patient relationship, but she helped me slowly understand what had happened to me. After [three] months of work I now feel equipped to do things differently. It’s been the most liberating and empowering experience and I’ve learnt things that will stay with me forever. Thank you Judy!

Working with Judy has been one of the most valuable experiences of my life.She helped me navigate several incredibly difficult periods with empathy, clarity, and practical tools that I continue to use daily. I always felt heard, never judged, and supported in a way that allowed me to make real, lasting changes. Her approach is both warm and insightful, and she has a real gift for helping you understand what’s holding you back—and how to move forward practically. I’m very grateful for our time together and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for real support and transformation.

I met with Tania at KlearMinds for 12 sessions during 2023. Trust was immediately established between us, with Tania’s warm and welcoming approach helping to make me feel comfortable from our first meeting all the way through to our final session. Tania helped navigate me through some difficult unresolved trauma from my childhood, which had been holding me back for a long time. Tania helped me look at my past through a lens of warmth, understanding and curiosity, rather than the fear, anger and shame that I had historically been doing. I can safely say that Tania’s help has changed my life, as I have finally healed those wounds which had troubled me for so long. Thank you Tania. Thank you KlearMinds. I would recommend your services without any hesitation.
