Reviews
Ursula has a very warm, supportive and professional approach. She helps to bring clarity and kindness to situations, feelings and experiences. She has helped me so much to deal with anxiety and develop confidence and self-compassion. I always feel lighter when I leave after a session with her. I would definitely recommend!
Thank you! I really appreciate your kind recommendation!!
Words cannot justify how much Ursula has helped me with my mental health and dealing with current and childhood issues. I've tried other people before and they were nowhere near as effective as Ursula. Her manner is excellent and I feel comfortable sharing everything with her, she's the only person I've shared some specific issues with as I was never comfortable enough doing so with anyone else before. The welcoming atmosphere and how Ursula relates, empathises and offers guidance is unmatched. I cannot recommend Ursula enough or begin to describe the positive changes she's brought to all aspects of my life.
Thank you so much for your kind review. I totally respect your trust and I know how much courage it took for you to give it! I'm so glad that you've made those positive changes!
I have been seeing Ursula for almost two years now. She has seen me through various life events and difficulties during that time. At the same time, she has helped me enormously with resolving complex past issues. I feel that I am better able to express my personality thanks to her. Ursula is excellent to work with if English is not your first language. She has superb cultural awareness and sensitivity and is very open minded.
Wow what a lovely, kind review! I have to say that it's been an absolute pleasure to work with you and I'm grateful for that!
Last week I met with Ursula and explained how I was feeling and the factors which were troubling me. She was caring, understanding, supportive and professional as usual. I found the session very helpful.
Thank you so much! I'm delighted to continue working with you and I look forward to our next session!
Excellent experience with Ursula. The appointment was extremely beneficial.
Thank you for your kind review and I'll look forward to seeing you soon!
Such a professional yet so caring and supportive. Would highly recommend!
Ah thank you so much for your recommendation! I'm really grateful for that and grateful also for the opportunity to work with you!!
Ursula is a truly fantastic therapist, and her professionalism, care and support are unparalleled. She has a holsitic approach to therapy, providing a safe, non-judgemental and supportive environment to enable a person to fully explore what is on their mind.
Ah thank you so much for your lovely review. I truly valued your trust and commitment to the work during sessions.
Every time I see Ursula I feel more grounded and better equipped for life. She has a gentle, kind and confident manner in her approach, Ursula listens without judgment. I would highly recommend Ursula.
Thank you so much! I absolutely appreciate your thoughtful review! I'll look forward to seeing you very soon!
Ursella’s is an amazing councillor, I had a double whammy hit me in early 2023, I started with Ursella shortly after that and it was amazing, there were tears and laughter, I learned so much about my self and I also got to close out some childhood traumas that have hung over me for 50 years. I understood how everything that I experienced so far in life is what shaped me, I understood the part I had in my relationships breaking down I cannot explain how good Ursella is, if you have trauma there is no better person to go see
It was an absolute pleasure to work with you and I'm so delighted that you gained the clarity you were looking for! Thank you for your kind words.
