Mr John Trench

John is an empathetic, logical, and compassionate holistic practitioner who has been an invaluable guide on my therapeutic journey. From the very beginning, I felt genuinely heard, understood, and met exactly where I was in life, without judgment. His approach combines practical guidance with thoughtful philosophical exploration, creating a space that encouraged both personal insight and meaningful growth. Rather than offering quick fixes, John helped me explore my experiences in a way that allowed me to develop greater self-awareness and find balance in my own life. John is highly knowledgeable, with many years of experience, and brings not only professional expertise but also a depth of wisdom that comes from lived experience. His calm, compassionate presence and holistic approach helped me to feel supported and grounded in each session. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a thoughtful, experienced, and genuinely caring therapist.

I have worked with John at different points over the past three years, attending several blocks of counselling sessions when I felt I needed support. Throughout that time, I have consistently found him to be warm, empathetic, and highly professional. What I value most is that he genuinely listens. He doesn't simply nod along or offer generic advice; he engages thoughtfully, asks insightful questions, and provides meaningful feedback that encourages deeper reflection and understanding. His approach helped me work through the end of an important relationship in a healthy way and gain valuable insight into some of the challenges rooted in my childhood experiences. John creates a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where it feels possible to explore difficult topics openly. I have already recommended him to others and would not hesitate to do so again. I am very grateful for the support and guidance he has provided over the years.

John immediately made me feel welcome and at ease — no judgement, just support. He explains what’s happened clearly and compassionately, and always provides useful takeaways I still refer to. His thoughtful explanations sometimes made me laugh out loud, which released tension and helped me open up. I highly recommend John — he’s changed my life and how I view difficult situations.

We attended John for couples counselling for close to a year when our relationship was at rock bottom. John provided us with a safe neutral environment where we both felt heard and understood. He helped identify the real issues underlying issues, improved our communication and gave us practical solutions to solve issues that we still use today. We highly recommend John.
