At the beginning of lockdown I realised that I felt overwhelmed by anxiety. My anxiety was nothing new, it had dogged me for many years and had robbed me of my confidence and self-esteem many times over. However, lockdown gave me the pause I needed to realise that things had to change. Sue, with her kindness, approachability, wisdom and professionalism, has been instrumental in bringing about that change.
Due to the pandemic I only ever met Sue over Skype, but even so she managed to create an atmosphere of safety and trust where I was able to be totally honest and open. With gentle and patient questioning Sue helped me to explore those things which were at the root of my anxiety and identify unhelpful patterns of thinking about myself. My counselling sessions with Sue have given me a fresh perspective on many things in my life and that is liberating.
Thank you Sue.
