"I have felt very comfortable coming into a very welcoming environment. I feel that I have developed a very close and open relationship with the counsellor.

It has opened up many different perspectives of thinking for me, helped me look towards the positive in life and taught me skills to help deal with everyday life."

"Was constantly in a habit of worrying, there were days/times when I did freak out now I take one day at a time, I am able to hold my peace/ be calmer."
