Some of the comments regarding our
counselling services


It was good to talk to someone about my problems (age 7)

It good (age 6)

I began to feel stronger as the sessions progressed, and appreciate the sympathetic and sensitive approach of my counsellor (age 40)

More people should be encouraged to take advantage of this service (age 41)

The service was particularly useful as I dealt with all the bereavements I've suffered over 50 years (age 55)

I found my counsellor very kind and helpful to me (age 18)

My visitor was very natural and respectful of my needs (age 35)

Our final session was sad (age 16)

I think the benefits depend on the dynamics between counsellor and client - and if the person really warms to and trusts the counsellor - Mine was excellent (age 65)

Thank you for all your help (age 29)

I found that a careful match between the counsellor and myself made a significant difference (age 28)

It was probably of greatest value in the aftermath of the bereavement, but I only realised its value some time later (age 48)

The timing was perfect and the visits ended when I felt "back on my feet" (age 34)

A great support (age 50)

My visitor was a great comfort to me - I really looked forward to his visits. Couldn't have coped without him (age 70)

Although I will never get over my loss, she was marvellous during the early stages (age 57)

The one to one with my visitor was brilliant. She was so easy to talk to. I really miss her (age 23)

After the trauma of the funeral we are on our own. It certainly helped me get back to the real world (age 30)

A big "Thank You" to my son's counsellor - she was wonderful (age 32)
