I have never known another therapist like Anne – somebody who walks alongside me through the tears, the anger, the fear, the anxiety, the laughter – somebody who sees me for who I am with empathy and without judgement. Anne is very generous with what she offers – she wears her heart on her sleeve.
I have learnt so much about myself in an environment of honesty and compassion where trust has grown. That trust leads me to a place of safety where it is okay to bring all of me – something that I have never had in my life before. Anne works with me in a multi-dimensional way especially as my natural language was drawn and not spoken to begin with. She has shown me that it is okay to work in this way and is very supportive of it– nobody has ever expressed this to me before and so is something that I hold close; I can be seen and heard.
I have found Anne to be very knowledgeable, which has challenged me, where I have been able to gain further understanding of my history and how it affects me today: it has enabled me to take small steps to a new or different beginning.
