I have found my sessions with Pippa extremely valuable in helping to process my thoughts and navigate some of the challenges I face. She has a calm and encouraging manner and has provided a safe space for me to be vulnerable, open up and make sense of things I have been through and how this has shaped the way I approach life day to day.
