Testimonials
I cannot thank you enough for all of my sessions, it has been truly life changing for me and I have grown so much and learnt so much.
​
H. W., UK
In just a few short months, you helped my progress of bulimia recovery more than anyone else ever has. Your style of counseling made me feel heard, and it was very helpful to engage in an ongoing dialogue with you. I also very much appreciate how you dived straight in from the start to tackle the ED together. I've been relapse free for 7 or 8 months now, and am very happy/proud. You sincerely changed my life and future for the better.
