Testimonials
After a lifetime of anxiety and panic in various forms, I met with Anita to explore and understand why and how my mindset had formed. Anita's supportive, expert and inquisitive approach has helped me to re-evaluate and reframe my approach to the world, reducing my anxiety in the process. The growth that Anita has helped me to achieve will not only benefit me, but also my family for years to come. Thank you. ​

Therapy was the best thing I ever did for myself. With Anita's help I was able to put all the pieces back into place and regain control over my anxiety. I wasn't sure what to expect but Anita has created an environment which leaves you feeling safe and comfortable to open up.

Two years ago I started my therapy journey and it was one of the hardest decisions I had made. I certainly needed therapy to heal from previous trauma but kept convincing myself that I was not worthy to receive the help I deserved.
When I saw Anita for my initial appointment to explore therapy, she listened very carefully to my struggles and I felt heard. I walked away from the session feeling encouraged and for the first time in many many years, that I could change the trajectory of my future.
Two years later, and I can honestly say my future is bright and I am excited for what this world has to offer me. I have Anita to thank for all her hard work and dedication, listening to me, educating me, and teaching me various techniques. I cannot recommend her enough.​

I didn’t really know what I wanted from counselling and put it off for many years. By chance I saw a flyer for Anita and was drawn to the openness of her website. After our initial meeting my journey began. Her approach is quite natural and I immediately felt hopeful that I might find some peace.
It is not always an easy process but with Anita’s guidance, understanding and knowledge I began to find my own answers and strength. With Anita’s help I now feel that I can accept what I cannot change and can move forward to continue the healing process with a better understanding of myself - Anita enabled me to think, reflect and connect and that is something that I am very grateful for.

People look for different things in therapy. So it’s not straightforward to find the right therapist, particularly your first one. Anita was my first. I remember how I looked into 17 pages of lists of therapists’ profiles, and went on many websites, until I found Anita’s profile. Her profile stood out, initially, because her statement was thoughtful, eloquent, and professional. Every step of the way, from reaching out to attending my first session, reaffirmed my initial impression. After one year of weekly sessions, I feel and see the difference in many aspects of my life, including challenges that I was conscious of, but thought I would just have to find ways to live with permanently.
I have so many fond memories of Anita’s reactions, responses, follow-ups and questions. And I leave without a single memory of a strange exchange, or a counter-productive reaction. She was effortlessly sensible and sensitive to what I was bringing to the room, and even when she challenged certain thoughts I had, she did so with such subtlety and intelligence. Even a wrecked boat will find ways to sail in her calm waters.
