THERAPY REVIEWS

DJ

Andrew is a caring, passionate and extremely skilled therapist. His methods are really efficient.  He’s helped me get the root cause of my issues much quicker than other therapists and I feel like a new person. With his guidance, EMDR has improved my emotional regulation, especially for anger and my partner has noted a real shift in my reactions and mindset. I’ve also really enjoyed working with Andrew these past few months - he has a real knack for anecdotes and stories to simplify situations and explain concepts. I can’t recommend Andrew highly enough and will be returning if I ever need his help again. Thanks so much Andrew!

Before I started my sessions with Andrew, I'd heard some fascinating things about EMDR. So after many trials of counselling/CBT and having no success, I figured EMDR might be for me seeing I experienced a plethora of traumas (ranging from toxic family dynamics to work place bullying, to name a few) that created vicious cycles in my life. Now, I couldn't be more certain that EMDR with Andrew was the right choice for me.

 

Starting therapy is terrifying, especially when it comes to much deeper routed challenges in which I'd never fully confided in someone with such great detail before. Intense fear of judgement initially had a grip on me, but Andrew's patience and ability to provide a safe space to explore those vulnerabilities quickly erased those insecurities. 

 

Thanks to Andrew, I've made such drastic changes in my life to the point where others have noticed difference (and this is just the beginning!)—from now having the ability to safely feel and appropriately regulate my emotions with ease (instead of supressing emotions, feeling shame or internalising things), to my social anxiety finally shifting after 10 years, and feeling more like myself pre trauma—more human and present instead of 24/7 fight or flight autopilot. My sleep quality has also drastically improved, shoulder tension has noticeably decreased and where I used to be in a perpetual state of feeling numb and emotionless, I now experience peace/calm and a range of emotions again. It quite literally feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. 

 

If you're thinking about starting EMDR with Andrew, do not hesitate! I absolutely recommend. Heck, even one of my close friends took the plunge and is now reaping her own benefits from her sessions. Thank you so much Andrew for helping me heal parts of me that I genuinely thought I could not recover from, and for continuously providing me with a safe space to explore my traumas.

Before reaching out, I was in a place of hopelessness and exhaustion. In only 7 weeks, Andrew has successfully helped me with a whole range of issues, some of which I wasn’t even aware of! I was comfortable sharing my wildest thoughts and he used a range of techniques, including EMDR, to help me process childhood related trauma and neurodiversity complexities. Andrew is calming and professional, with a generous helping of humour and humanity. I’ve seen him previously and knew it was the right decision to come back. I now feel clear and confident in myself, and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for support.”

Through various techniques, including EMDR therapy, Andrew has helped me navigate an incredible distressing period of my life. Through the use of Andrew’s expertise, it has proved to me how powerful it is to allow yourself to be vulnerable and emotional, rather than suppressing how you feel. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Andrew to anybody who felt they needed to speak and I’m truly grateful for all of his help

I had several sessions with Andrew after experiencing an unexpected, life-changing, and traumatic experience. He quickly worked with me to address the immediate trauma through EMDR therapy. 

 

Andrew is an extremely compassionate and understanding therapist. All of my sessions were virtual meaning I felt the comfort of my own surroundings.

 

Dealing with the trauma initially (even though daunting) has meant I have been able to manage my emotions and rebuild my life happily. 

 

Thank you always

"Andrew was extremely easy to talk to from the beginning and I felt very comfortable in expressing thoughts and emotions which had not been addressed, those which led to my deep anxiety.  He provided me with the tools/strategies to overcome those moments when I was feeling very anxious.  The most rewarding thing is that Andrew has helped me 'find' myself again, which feels good.  I continue to have my 'special' people walk beside me when needed.  I know Andrew is on hand to help me in the future and I would have no hesitation in getting in touch.

It is safe to say that Andrew has changed my life. 

I have struggled with anxiety (and what I now believe to be OCD) for years but especially since the pandemic I had begun to find every day a struggle and thought I'd never be able to change how I felt. 

Starting sessions with Andrew almost instantly changed things for the better for me and I can safely say the techniques I have learnt are already improving my quality of life in ways I never thought possible.

I can't thank Andrew enough for his amazing support and I will be forever grateful for changing my life for the better. 

If I can give one piece of advice to anyone thinking about therapy, ring or email Andrew as you won't regret it!
