Client Feedback

At Journey of the Self Counselling and Psychotherapy, I deeply value the trust, privacy, and autonomy of every client I work with.

Because of this, I don’t request testimonials during the regular, active phase of weekly therapy.

At natural transition points in our work - such as moving from weekly to fortnightly sessions, or after therapy has ended, I may gently invite feedback --[where it feels clinically appropriate and where I believe a client is emotionally resourced to do so].

This is always entirely optional and offered without pressure or expectation, clients are welcome to decline or simply ignore this invitation, with no impact on their therapy or our work together.

Any words shared are used anonymously and only with full consent, respecting each person’s right to confidentiality and personal agency.

Your healing journey is private and sacred, and I honour that always.

I feel very grateful to have had Ann Marie as my therapist. She has been incredibly helpful in my journey and it was a relief feeling like I could be me and know she would never judge me. When I couldn't find the words and wasn't able to make sense of what was happening it was like she had a sixth sense and could shine a light on areas of my life I couldn't quite see. From our first chat she was warm, empathetic and I always left our sessions feeling heard and understood. I hightly recommend Ann Marie to anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled therapist.

Annmarie was a great help to learning more about myself and being a more positive person.With her help I learned more about my bipolar disorder and dealt with other issues.She has a very warm and caring approach and I would highly recommend her to anyone facing hardships in their life

Thank you so much for your help and guidance throughout our time working together. When I first came to you, I was in a very hard, sad, and overwhelming situation that felt out of my control. Your support helped me navigate through it, and I truly feel I have come out the other side. I am grateful for your non-judgmental listening ear and the gentle guidance that you offered. Our sessions helped me grow as a person and learn how to cope with challenging situations that may arise in the future. If I ever find myself in a similar situation again, I would not hesitate to return. Thank you for making a difficult period feel manageable and for empowering me to move forward with more confidence and clarity.

Sessions with Annmarie have improved my life in many ways. I was wary to return to counselling after some previous negative experiences, however I am very glad I did. Annmarie’s approach was really easy going and made opening up far easier than I expected.

I’d recommend Annmarie and her therapeutic approach to anyone to at least try, you’ll never know the difference it could make for you and your mental health until you do.
