Counselling in Windlesham, Counsellors Near You

Reassuring, knowledgeable, calm and kind. I was so much better after my counselling with Lesley. I felt empowered and had regained some of my confidence. My anxiety was caused by an ongoing employment issue. Thank you Lesley.

Kind, professional and easy to talk to.

Lesley was really easy to talk to, she helped me get through a really difficult time in my life. Lesley helped me to understand what I was going through. We talked a lot about my childhood, which I hadn't realised had caused me so much pain, I enjoyed our chats, and always felt at ease and comfortable when I was with Lesley.

Karen is an excellent listener. Karen asks great questions that made me think outside the box sometimes. Karen is very approachable and has a wonderful way of relaxing people through obviously difficult times. I always looked forward to my appointments with Karen, knowing that I would come away with more clarity, and positive thoughts. Karen was able to challenge me to think differently about the issues that I was facing which has had a profound benefit both in my private and professional life.

Kind, understanding, good listener, able to deal with the many issues I have, gives great advice, helps me to look at situations in a different way to cope.

Upon arriving I pretty much was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, in tears, she calmed me down and over the following months has changed my perspective on life. She's extremely easy to talk to, and not judgemental even when I failed at things. She's helped me work with people better and become a better person in myself too. I have so far to go in coming to terms with my mother passing but I know that throughout that, she'll be there for me. Previously I hated therapists, they weren't good, I found them obnoxious and unreliable. Karen has completely changed my perspective on that, although I'd not want someone else. We've covered self-esteem issues, aggression issues and so much more. I know by the end of this I'll be balanced and able to deal with anything. I look forward to seeing her every time, twice a week isn't enough, I'd love to see her more. If you need someone who cares, Karen is the person you want to see. I feel valued by her as a person. It's like I'm a rough rock, being polished into a diamond. Thanks Karen! You're great.

I didn't really believe that therapy was going to help me, having tried a number of times with other therapists over the years I had become convinced that it would not work for me. I got to a place of desperation and found again that the advice from the Dr was to talk to someone. I signed up to a first session with Karen convinced that I would have nothing to say and hate every moment. But I was wrong, it was the total opposite. I totally underestimated the power of a TrueType great therapist. Karen is helping me to turn my life around, and I think that is the really important thing; she helps ME to do it, she is not doing it for me. I think Karen might be one of the most important people I meet in my life and already I feel so grateful for the time we have worked together. Everyone would benefit from a Karen in their lives. We started with TA to help me manage my everyday stuff and now moving into counselling to help me deal with a bereavement.

Philip is excellent at helping you figure out what you need to be considering, but in a way where you're understanding things and finding your own solutions and conclusions.

Philip is able to create a relaxing environment and was able to empathise very quickly. Philip has an ability to identify the root cause quickly and relate back to me in an easy to understand style. Philip was able to challenge me to think differently about the issues that I was facing which has had a profound benefit both in my private and professional life. I would use Philip again.
