"What our Clients say"
Grief
“When I came to Jane, I had recently lost my Mum. I was grieving and struggling and couldn’t cope with anything. Jane listened to me and let me open up to her. She felt everything you said to her, she didn’t judge me and offered me new ways of thinking. Giving me coping skills, which were brilliant. Jane was amazing, she made me see how to make time for myself and made me see happiness again. Thank you so much Jane”
Struggling with life
“Jane became my counsellor when I was struggling with general life. I felt very low, lonely and my self-esteem was on the floor. Over a few sessions Jane began to help me turn my negativity into positivity. She helped me revaluate myself and focus on me! Im so proud of myself, I have taken some massive steps. I now listen to my body and respond to my personal needs. Jane is amazing she made me feel so relaxed and validated as a person. Thanks Jane for everything”
Finding Confidence
“Attending regular counselling has been invaluable for my self-confidence. I have gone from feeling like I wanted to hide myself away to approaching life with a new sense of optimism. All it took was having someone to talk to and share my insecurities, so, I could learn about what I was experiencing and the steps to take to handle those feelings. Jane has been a pleasure to work with throughout, so thank you!’
Getting back on Track
“Jane has played such an important role in helping me to create a sense of order, in what is my messy world.
I wasn't sure what to expect from counselling, and wasn't sure if it was for me- but I soon realised that there are just some things you can't fix on your own and you need an opportunity to talk to someone who is prepared to fully listen to the 'head mess' without jumping in to offer their personal experience, or unsolicited advice.
Jane has helped me to question myself in a positive way, rather than listening to one of my many internal voices/critics;
asking me what I want out of situations; allowing me to understand that it's ok to make myself a priority in my own life (without the guilt), and giving me the tools to compartmentalise issues/situations and deal with them when I'm ready to deal with them rather than to be overwhelmed by everything at once, to the point that I feel like I am drowning.
If you're considering getting help and finding a person you can trust to get you back on track, then you couldn't find a better person to help you figure yourself out.”
Family Counselling
“So, I contacted JP Counselling as I found their details on the Counselling Directory. I was looking for an experienced therapist to work with me and another family member. Our relationship had broken down and communication had completely stopped between us.
My initial contact with JP Counselling was with Jane whom I spoke with over the telephone. She appeared kind and understanding and explained to me that, Paul was the person we would be working with as he was the therapist who worked with families/couples etc.
Our initial assessment only took a few days to arrange and at my initial face-to-face meeting with Paul, I felt instantly at ease. I was able to express my feelings to him during that assessment and there was no judgement.
I often left the sessions feeling much more at ease than when I arrived. That apprehension of how the session might go, especially when the sessions involve another person who has obvious issues with you. Paul was clearly very experienced and managed our time well in the fact, he never allowed the sessions to end on a negative. This made the counselling enjoyable.
As we made our way through this journey, it was Paul who suggested we were ready to end our therapy as he believed he had given us exactly what we needed to become better communicator’s. That was another clear indication that he had our best interests at heart, and it definitely was not about the money aspect of it.”
