Testimonials
I do not publish client testimonials
Here’s why
Client testimonials can be unethical and misleading:
They are considered unethical by many of the professional bodies for therapists, e.g. the UK Council for Psychotherapy.
They can be fabricated, so you have no way of knowing if they’re true.
The Advertising Standards Authority require any testimonial to be verifiable and that would conflict with the confidentiality I offer my clients.
We’re used to checking reviews on sites like Tripadvisor and Trustpilot, but those reviews are (theoretically) independent. On a therapist’s own website, they are responsible for the content and will cherry-pick the best reviews for publication.
An effective, well-trained therapist will have a wide range of approaches and expertise they use in a unique blend, tailor-made to fit each client’s individual needs. Therapy is not like buying a kitchen appliance or engaging a plumber, and one person’s experience is unlikely to match your own.
I am here for you, not the other way around! I won’t use you to promote me or my services.
What I can promise you is this
If you choose to work with me, you will get my full commitment to helping you.
I am experienced in helping people just like you make positive changes and be free of the things that have been distressing them and holding them back, so they can live a happier, more fulfilling life. I want that for you too.
I’ll create a safe, non-judgemental and empathetic space, where I’m on your side and will bring all of my skills, knowledge, training, expertise and experience to help you get to where you want to be.
