"I had 3 sessions with Shirley this past month. Her no-nonsense, pragmatic approach was very helpful. She affirmed insights I was already forming, offered gentle guidance and reflections, and helped me feel empowered and positive about life and my goals. I highly recommend her as an effective counsellor."
"Shirley quickly made me feel comfortable in her lovely consulting room. She understood my concerns, explained my reactions clearly, and gave me effective, easy-to-use tools. I now have these tools for the future. Thank you, Shirley — you truly made a difference."
"We came into counselling feeling stuck, frustrated, and unsure if we could move forward together. From the start, we felt safe to be honest without judgment. The sessions helped us understand each other’s perspectives, rebuild trust, and communicate in ways that actually brought us closer. We’re in a much better place now, stronger as a couple and more hopeful about our future."
"I came to Shirley for support during a tough time. After the first session, I felt heard and equipped with tools to help. After 4 sessions, I have tools that will stick with me for life. Thank you, Shirley, for your kindness, positivity, and for truly listening."
"Thank you so much for your help. Every session was helpful - understanding where behaviors start, how we adapt, and what needs to change to become better for myself and others. It’s a lot, but I’ll keep practicing strategies to grow and improve."
"Absolutely the most brilliant counselling I’ve ever had. Shirley listens well, is knowledgeable, easy to understand, and gives practical guidance. I had very difficult issues; two are solved, and I’m confident about the third."
