Therapy in Dorking: Find a Therapist

"As soon as I walked through the door Beverley put me at ease, She was incredibly welcoming and easy to talk to. I have now been seeing her for about 3 months and so much of my life has changed as a result. She has helped me to look at things differently and helped me to understand why I behave in the way that I do. This, in turn, has helped me to change some of my behaviours for the better. I always feel so positive when I leave my session with Beverley and she encourages me to set myself challenges, which I have so far always achieved. My self worth means so much more to me now than it did 3 months ago and that's thanks to Beverley. I still have a way to go yet but I now know that it is achievable with the support I receive in our sessions."

"Peter is an experienced therapist who really cares about his clients and is committed to this vocation. My partner and I were stuck in an unhappy and distant relationship. Peter skilfully supported both of us without taking sides or blaming. He patiently taught us both to identify and communicate our feelings in healthier ways. In the beginning sessions were difficult and painful but after a few months our relationship had improved dramatically. Then I discovered that my partner was addicted to internet porn. Peter handled this with such sensitivity that for the first time my partner was able to talk about experiences he was very ashamed of and had kept secret all his life. We have both learnt so much from Peter. Life is less scary, we have made new friends and deepened our existing relationships. Therapy has been life-changing."

"Very approachable and helpful."

"Gill is extremely calm and understanding. In our first session she outlined her credentials and immediately put me at ease. Each session ended on a positive note and Gill was extremely helpful with coping techniques and understanding with difficult issues. I always felt my treatment was what came first and at the point when my recovery was becoming clear there was never any pressure to continue having sessions when they were no longer necessary. Additionally I was discouraged from booking too many sessions as it would not have given me enough time to digest the previous session. Gill was a fantastic counsellor and her help was greatly beneficial and appreciated."

"Sarah was very professional yet friendly in her approach. I found her counselling helpful and constructive. I cried at every session but I think it helped to let the emotions out! I would recommend Sarah to friends, should they feel in need of counselling. I would also go back to Sarah if I felt the need. She was excellent."

"Juliet advised me on personal situations in a very pragmatic and calming way. She helped me to reflect on situations in a different manner which effectively helped me overall with self aid and self care. Overall very helpful."

"Yara was a great help to me during a time when I was facing several big life challenges at the same time. Yara helped me to find the strength and resources within myself to face up to, process, cope with and eventually overcome these challenges. I found Yara's approach to be very effective and I would highly recommend her to anyone who felt like they needed help."

"Philip is able to create a relaxing environment and was able to empathise very quickly. Philip has an ability to identify the root cause quickly and relate back to me in an easy to understand style. Philip was able to challenge me to think differently about the issues that I was facing which has had a profound benefit both in my private and professional life. I would use Philip again."

"On my first session with Martin it was obvious he was a sincere and approachable man. My sessions have been very professional and my therapy has helped myself get a better understanding of who I am and what I want from my life. I look forward to my counselling sessions as it has developed my understanding of how counselling works in the real world - my world. Sessions are carried out in a friendly and safe environment, and should anyone want to visit a counsellor who can truly help look no further than Martin."

"Anusha is a good listener and I'd describe her as supportive, encouraging, thoughtful and perceptive. Our sessions together and the work I did on my own have helped me to understand the thoughts and patterns behind my anxiety and panic attacks. Crucially, our work together helped me to find new and practical responses to manage the anxiety and not let it spiral out of control."

"I wanted a therapist to talk to me as well as listen. I get good advice from her and so far I have taken aboard what she has said, which has been very helpful in my thinking process. Thank you Bhavna."

"Easy to talk to and open up to, very able to make connections and help me to understand what I needed to work through in therapy."

"Very approachable and put me at ease from the first time i met him."

"I found my sessions with Pauline most helpful, with her sensitive and gentle ways of enabling me to clear some of the clutter in my mind, by talking through them. I had a number of different pressures on me when I started our sessions, and Pauline helped me to find perspective and to work on my solutions. There are still other things on my mind to deal with, and I will certainly contact Pauline to help me in the future."

"Konstandina was very easy to talk to and had a very quiet way of explaining things. She was very positive and helped me enormously with my particular problem. She has a very cheerful disposition."

"Allowed us to move at our own pace. Felt heard and understood. Given the space to voice our concerns."

"Tony created an atmosphere where I felt I could speak freely without judgement or needing to hide anything, and he understood with a perceptive and compassionate outlook. He helped me to explore problems that I was worried about, and to reframe them, so I understood them (and myself) a lot more clearly. This gave me greater peace of mind, which I still benefit from now, several weeks after finishing therapy."

"Hannah was very empathetic and a wonderful listener, because I felt heard and truly listened to. She was curious and non-judgemental and I trusted her with my beliefs and reflections. I valued her questioning around problem solving and she really helped me help myself. She was able to see the patterns in my behaviour and experiences and reflect back to me which felt rare and trusting. She helped me help myself, especially with regards to finding self compassion. It was very important that my therapist was confident and experienced so I couldn’t have been luckier to find Hannah!"

"Doug was friendly and related to my issues. He helped me rationalise my anxieties and taught me some breathing exercises."
