Wow, what a privilege it is to bear witness to such incredible work in therapy. Here’s what a recent client* had to say about our process:
“I could write an essay on what a fantastic therapist Kirsty is. If you’re struggling and looking to start CBT, I highly recommend her. She’ll listen, offer practical solutions, and help you through your troubles.
Not only is Kirsty very professional, but she’s empathetic, calm and has a great way with words. She listens to what you say, but she always tries to get to the root of the problem. I never doubted that Kirsty wasn’t fully engaged with any of our sessions, but she surprised me with how much information she retained and the way she was able to ‘jump back’ a few steps, pull out information from past sessions and connect it with the present.
I’ve had 15 sessions with Kirsty, and I feel that the work we have done together has been life-changing for me. I value myself more, am able to look at situations more reasonably and I have identified parts of myself that I want to work on to make my life calmer and better. I have stopped using the words ‘should’ and ‘must’ and have stopped beating myself up for not completing a to-do list as long as my arm.
Thanks to Kirsty, I also have a number of worksheets that I can print off and fill in at any point. Tools that help me reframe negative thoughts, identify negative behavioural patterns and more!
We’ve laughed together, I’ve cried, and she’s listened (I’ve listened too). Sometimes I ranted about how much I hated the world, other times I shared positives and funny stories. But what I’m most grateful for is the safe, judgement-free space that Kirsty created for me, in which I was able to talk about painful, traumatic events that have had a negative impact on my life for 10+ years. I’m now able to ‘revisit’ them at a distance, resulting in fewer nightmares and flashbacks.
There aren’t enough words to say thank you for what you’ve done for me, Kirsty.”
