Testimonials
The testimonials shared here show the difference that therapy with Gemini
Counselling has made for clients. These reflections are included with gratitude.
Support for Anxiety
“Claire has created a supportive, non-judgmental environment where I can safely open up. Her approach is tailored to my needs and is balanced with empathy,
appropriate humour, sensitivity and an alternative view where needed. Each session feels productive with a view to moving forward. Claire's vast knowledge offers many practical tasks and suggestions which are incredibly helpful for me. The work we do
has made a significant impact on my life."
​(Female client, 30-40 yrs.)
"Claire is a very engaging person who has a deep understanding of CBT and really helped me overcome my phobias. She was very flexible in arranging appointments and was non-judgemental throughout all the sessions. I was very glad that I found her when I was most at need. I felt I could discuss quite delicate issues with her with
confidence. I will contact her again without hesitation if I felt I required further counselling."
(Male client, 60-70 yrs.)
"I had been struggling with PTSD for years and hadn’t found the right help until I met
Claire. From the start she made me feel at ease and explained my symptoms in a way I could understand. The exercises she gave me have made a huge difference — I can now sleep through the night, manage flashbacks, and focus on my work again.
These sessions have truly changed my life."
(Female client, 20-30 yrs.)
“Claire was very calming, and I felt safe talking to her. I was very nervous as it was my first time going to therapy, but I felt at ease very quickly.
My anxiety is now much more controlled – I am sleeping better and I am finding more joy in the smaller things. I would have no hesitation booking again if needed. Thank you for helping me.”
(Female client, 20-30 yrs.)
“Claire has taught me a variety of techniques, and I feel better equipped to cope with
challenges I may face in the future. I am able to acknowledge and handle my
thoughts in a more beneficial way and feel more confident within myself. Thank you for all of your help! I really appreciate it and feel much more confident to handle things now :).”
(Female client, 13-19 yrs.)
Support for Neurodivergent Clients

(Male client on the Autistic Spectrum, 20-30 yrs)
“Claire helped me understand my OCD and gave me tools to be able to manage my
thoughts so that they aren’t taking up so much time and space in my life anymore.”
(Female client on the Autistic Spectrum, 13-19 yrs)
Support for Addictive Behaviours and Loved Ones Affected
“Having counselling with Claire has helped me so much. She is compassionate and non-judgemental and this made it easier for me to talk about my drug use. She has helped me build my self-esteem and I now feel much more in control and am more
confident that I can get through life without help from substances. I'm really grateful for her understanding and support, thanks so much.”
(Female client, 30 – 40 yrs)
“Claire has been a great support through a very difficult and stressful time. She has helped me to understand more about my daughter’s substance dependency and helped me to manage my emotions. I now feel more able to look after my own well- being. I can’t thank her enough for her support.”
(Female client, 60- 70 yrs)
If you feel ready to take your own step towards positive change, I’d be glad to offer you the same safe, supportive space that others have found helpful at Gemini Counselling.
