Testimonials

"I was unsure about having counselling on line via Zoom but Isaac really put me at ease and I was very comfortable with the sessions. I felt listened to and well supported in challenging some of my thinking"

 

"Isaac is an excellent therapist, and I sensed immediately that I was in safe hands.  Not only is Isaac extremely professional and reliable but I also found him to be very caring towards me. It's never easy opening up to a complete stranger about how you're feeling or discussing very personal matters close to your heart, but I was always made to feel totally at ease during our sessions and most importantly, I never felt judged about anything that I said. 

Even when expected, losing a loved one can be totally devasting. When feeling overwhelmed with tiredness, loneliness, sadness, grief, anger and despair, it can be really, really difficult making any sense of how to move on with your life. It can be difficult to think straight at times, and to focus on day-to-day tasks. Talking through things with Issac helped me to re-focus, re-evaluate and to very slowly move forwards. I cried many times during our sessions, but we also laughed, but most importantly at the end of each session, I always felt that I took away a positive or something new to think about. 

Grief is a process, of which I'm working through, but having Isaac support me during those very early raw weeks and months was so helpful. I will always be eternally grateful to Isaac for all of his support and for his part in this very personal journey."

 

" Isaac is an exceptional therapist who has helped me achieve a level of clarity and sanity. He is warm, empathic and knowledgeable, and I feel safe with him. I would highly recommend working with Isaac, I found it all to be an overwhelmingly positive experience and I'm very thankful to him".

"Isaac truly helped me to pull me out of a dark place after a family bereavement that caused me to become withdrawn and depressed. Isaac encouraged me to take one day at a time and I am starting to get back my life again. He is warm and empathic, and I felt supported. I cannot thank him enough"

 

"I was at a very low point that was effecting my mood, self-esteem and confidence. I often put myself down and found it hard to have any self-compassion. I knew deep inside that something wasn’t right but I did not know what is was but with Isaac's help I was able to get to the root cause of my problems. Isaac provided me with some coping strategies and I’m in a much better place and feeling more positive with self-love. I would definitely recommend Isaac"

 

"Isaac has helped me to work through some childhood trauma and shame that I carried with me from my past. As a man, I found it difficult talking about my feelings or problems as I had to always appear strong and not show vulnerability, but I found Isaac really easy to talk to and this has allowed me to work through some really tough experiences with him. He helped me identify the root cause of my my original problem and to be forgiving. Isaac provided me with a safe space to explore my problems without feeling judged nor shamed. I would highly recommend Isaac to all the men, who may be feeling reluctant about seeking therapy"

"Talking to Isaac helped me to reflect on my high expectations which often made me feel worthless and not good enough. I was in a complicated relationship which made me feel guilty, shamed and could not stop blaming myself. I was able to be myself with Isaac and tell him about the things that are really upsetting me. Isaac was always present, he listened to me without making me feel ashamed or judged and I felt safe to share my secrets with him. Isaac has guided me through self-forgiveness and acceptance and I feel more at peace with myself"

 

"Isaac is friendly, empathetic and professional.  He prods you in a gentle way with his questions which makes you reflect and allows you to get to the bottom and deconstruct difficult areas of your life. Since working with Isaac I now have more self-awareness and more knowledge of how my negative thoughts affect my moods. I am now able to challenge my negative thoughts and I am mindful not to catastrophise things. I now have a more positive mindset and I am able to celebrate every little win and I am proud of myself. I would strongly recommend Isaac to anyone who always puts themselves down and show no compassion"
