Success Stories

Comments received from our clients

"The lady I saw at my consultation was warm and welcoming, understood my needs and explained all the options and waiting times. I feel I've made a lot of positive changes and have a choice in how I react to a situation or feeling. I can question and challenge my beliefs. It's an excellent service - plenty of options, always open with advice and guidance - we're extremely lucky to have this in Stockport. The counsellor I saw was exactly right for my needs - challenging but respectful and empathetic."

"I've achieved far more than I thought I'd ever be able to - I'm not only coping well but I'm really enjoying/loving life."

"I feel that the balance was just right for me. The cognitive self-help side of the therapy was essential for me because that's where the problem was. The one-to-one sessions left me feeling uplifted and validated as a human being and had a very positive impact. The group sessions prevented me from feeling isolated and gave me valuable support. Listening to other people's experiences helped me put my own into perspective. A thoroughly life-changing experience!"

"I have been very impressed with these services and have made a great deal of positive changes in my life due to the excellent counselling provided. I was never afraid to say what I thought may be useful to my recovery and I never once was apprehensive about attending my sessions. Good environment and excellent counsellors."

"I really felt that I was listened to and that I could trust my counsellor with anything. It felt good that I had time to reflect on things and could speak about anything I wanted."
