 Mei helped me to find a greater sense of peace with my feelings after losing my mum, honouring mum's memory and our bond whilst at the same time acknowledging that grief and loss will always be part of life. I felt extremely comfortable with Mei: I felt heard, understood and accepted. She gently supported me to explore alternative perspectives where my thinking had become 'stuck'. I took particular comfort from the mindfulness and visualisation exercises which helped me in managing very difficult and upsetting memories of my mum's illness. These sessions have been an important part of my journey in grief and I am very glad to have known this wonderfully compassionate and skilled professional.

 I am glad that I chose Mei - she was my first counsellor! During our 2 years of therapy, she supported me by listening, was non-judgmental, patient and kind, giving me tools to deal with my worries and fears. 
Through this journey I have increased in self-awareness, self-compassion and learnt to let go of my judgmental attitudes.  With the self-resilience I never had, I am now much more able to cope with stress and can see the world in a more positive light.
My relationships have improved. What can I say except thank you.

Mei was an excellent professional who was patient and understanding and has made a real impact. Counselling has allowed me to express and explore my feelings about my OCD and I  have gained insight and understanding as well as coping strategies. I have learned how to ease up on my checking behaviours.  I've regained my old self and my family and I are in a much better place now.

​

I really appreciate help and understanding Mei has given me over the last 6 weeks. I am able now to express my grief instead of bottling it up, and the mindfulness techniques have helped reduce my anxieties. I am closer to my family now and it has helped me return to work quicker and cope more efficiently at work.
Client who presented with work stress compounded by recent bereavement

​

I found the counselling sessions with Mei to be extremely helpful. I felt very safe opening up to her, and thanks to her wisdom, understanding, kindness and great skills as a counsellor, I made progress much quicker than I had anticipated. I very much appreciated the option of combining learning about 'tools' that I could use to identify and manage my feelings, with the freedom to talk about my Christian faith. Thank you Mei for helping me to move forward.
Client who suffered psychological abuse in childhood

​

I am writing this review almost 2 years since my therapy with Mei ended, and I can very confidently say that this experience completely transformed my life.  My psychiatrist had diagnosed me with EUPD and recommended DBT. It had been a rocky year, I barely just about kept my head above water with medication. But I wanted to live confidently and not just survive, but thrive. Mei most certainly facilitated this in abundance!
Mei is the most gentle, kind, and wise soul, and I felt instantly at ease with her. She tailored the DBT programme to suit my needs encouraging me to work through the tasks and use the tools she provided via handouts I could refer to. I never once felt judged or disapproved of, and Mei's heartfelt compassion helped me to find that same compassion for myself. 
By the end of the sessions, I finally felt capable and empowered, with a thorough understanding of how my brain works, why it works that way, and how I can lead a fulfilling life despite my personal challenges. Mei is an exceptional therapist, and I would recommend her every time."
