It's Okay... Counselling

Hi karen, I just wanted to say
thank you for everything you have
done for me.
If it wasn't for your patience,
knowledge, and understanding,
then I doubt I would have made
the progress that I have.
You have taught me that it's ok to
be whoever I want to be and my
self-worth matters. Once again
thank you. 

I have reflected on the sessions I had with
Hayley and can honestly say they were really,
really beneficial. I was a little sceptical initially,
but I was able and encouraged to talk about
and explore my situation. I found talking with
Hayley useful, and I was able to put things
(which had been very difficult) into
perspective.
Hayley had a calm but friendly manner, which
immediately put me at ease.
I would, and have, recommended Hayley, but
also recommended the counselling process,
which I have found invaluable at a difficult
time.
Thank you, I will never forget the value and
insight I took from your sessions.

Counselling has changed my life!

I was at a point in my life where I had enough of trying to deal with things in my mind that didn't make sense to me. I was sick of being stuck in a continuous cycle of negative thoughts, upset and low mood. It was making me so miserable. I just didn't understand why I was feeling like I was and not improving even tho I thought I was doing well. On top of that I didn't think anyone would understand the mess inside of my head. I saw a post from Its Okay counselling on Facebook one day, while I was out walking to try change my mood and decided to message them because I was out of ideas on how to understand what I was thinking. I'd just had enough. I got a call back the next day and spoke to Hayley. I was so nervous and I felt stupid. She put my mind at ease straight away and I booked a session for the week after.

I felt silly going and really nervous, as a man going to counselling the stigma around it says don't go man up! But It couldn't be more wrong! Hayley put my mind at ease in the first 10 minutes she was so welcoming and understanding which I really needed. It helped me so much. The first session I had, i said to Hayley that I thought counselling was no good (well in different words.). I think I just said it because I've never heard of anyone I know going to counselling so I didn't even know anything about how much it can help people. So I based my judgement on not even knowing about it. I couldn't of been more wrong!

Hayley has helped and worked with me to help me understand every problem I had in my head. We've unlocked boxes in there that I didn't think was an issue, she's helped me deal with them all.

I now see life in a whole different light! A more positive life that I'm loving. I've set boundaries and goals I didn't think was possible I've got the self belief I didn't think I had in me. I believe in my own abilities where as before I'd knock it on the head and not persue it. It has Boosted my confidence 1000 times from where it was from the first session 8 weeks ago to what it is today. I was embarrassed to admit I had any mental health problems before to anyone. I'm now more talkative than ever about promoting a good mental health. And getting the help for it. Theres no shame in any of it. It's helps it's powerful and it's helped and changed my life. I'm a working progress but I understand it all now. I've got the tools to help stay on the road I want to be on.Hayley, I am so grateful and appreciative for your help. I know it's not over yet but you have helped me to change my life for a more positive future. I can't thank you enough. ❤

My experiance at its ok with karen has helped me get over some of my issues and im sure she can help with the outhers its a nice place to be im glad i have er to help me thank you its okay

Hayley is so lovely, she made me feel relaxed. I did not feel under pressure and I was able to speak freely in my sessions. Thank you so much for being there and helping me through a tough time.

You really helped me to talk openly about my traumatic experience. After my sessions I realised that I don't have to be scared anymore and I can no longer be hurt. I've never been able to feel that way until after seeing you. Thank you so much Karen, seeing you have been a massive benefit to me.

Hayley is lovely, warm and easy to talk to. In just a few sessions Hayley helped me to find direction and focus on what is important to me. She helped me to set goals and to believe in myself. I will be ever grateful and can highly recommend Hayley at It’s Okay Counselling.
