Andrea has been absolutely wonderful, she created a safe and comfortable space in which I could properly explore the issues I felt like I was facing and was always there to provide guidance as to how I could be thinking about things next. I could not recommend her highly enough.

Andrea’s been my therapist for the last couple of years and I’m very lucky to have found her. She’s calm, we can have a laugh and she’s helping me understand myself. She remembers good details, is super reliable, non judgemental and direct.
Can’t recommend enough!

There are no words that can easily describe how thankful I am for Andrea to be my therapist. I struggled with difficult time in my life where many things suddenly changed and I had to rebuild my personal life basically from scratch. Her patience and wise words helped me to move forward and find the peace and joy in life again. Also I realised that it was the best decision that I could do to ask for help and start to talk about it and think about, I went through all those feelings and althougj I know not everyday is great, I will go through the tuff ones and they will make me stronger at the end. Big THANK YOU.

I feel so lucky to have found Andrea, she is deeply wise and warm . I felt held, heard and validated. She understood the post relationship pain and regret I felt and gave me compassionate support. It feels as if she was able to pick up all the stuffing that had fallen out and put it back in. It is rare to find such a genuine and thoughtful therapist. Thank you Andrea.

Andrea is supportive and a great listener. Easy to talk to. I like if she didn’t understand something I said she would ask questions rather than assume. I feel safe talking to her and after each session I feel better. At the end of the session she would finish it on a positive note

I'm about a month into therapy/counselling with Andrea and find her a great support and ally, she holds a safe, non-judgemental space in which I feel free and safe to express whatever is up for me. She asks insightful questions and makes observations that help me see things from a more constructive perspective. She keeps me on track with my primary goal and is at the same time flexible exploring whatever is current for me on the day. It all seems to connect anyway. I would highly recommend Andrea as a therapist.

When I was going through a stressful, emotional time, Andrea was able to draw out the sources of my depression and anxiety and help me think critically about them. She really made me feel heard, and with her guidance, I felt myself getting steadier and stronger each week. What's more, our discussions led me to some unexpected breakthroughs in other parts of my life. If and when I have mental health challenges in the future and want to seek counselling, I will get back in touch with Andrea. I found her to be thoughtful, responsive and caring. I recommend her without reservation.

Andrea has been very patient and understanding when it comes to trying to work through my issues. She has been very compassionate and takes the time needed to go through every aspect of your troubles. She always asks if there is something I would like to speak about first and then makes sure the session always ends on a positive or at least in a good place. I couldn’t recommend her as a therapist highly enough! So far I cannot fault her as she has done her upmost to help me through my issues.
Thank you so much!

I am lucky to have connected with Andrea because, even though the first time attending therapy can cause a bit of resistance, she's made me feel comfortable all the way from the start. Not only does she makes me feel seen and understood, but she's also very available for me. The weekly worksheets she sends help me understand mysñ way of functioning, as well as helping in our next therapy sessions. So far we've had two sessions but I am happy and excited to keep diving deeper into this
