Barbara is such a compassionate, caring, empathetic, sincere, kind, trusting individual; the list could go on to be quite frank. I have a great deal of respect and admiration for her; she truly is a gift, and I have been so blessed to have crossed paths with her. Barbara was very easy to talk to; she created a safe space I needed to be completely vulnerable and express myself fully without any judgment. I instantly felt at ease from the get go.
For most of my life, I have struggled with obsessive thinking, over-analysing and feeling so mis-understood. But Barbara, through her incredible ability to really listen and understand even the deepest and most complex issues—helped make sense of it all so simply and gently.
She was quick to recognise my patterns of self-hate, self-blame and self-doubt, and with such warmth and wisdom, guided me back to my own inner strength. She helped rebuild my confidence and empowered me to believe in myself again and finally healing parts of me that felt unreachable for so many years.
Her help, guidance and encouragement has been an incredible source of support, it has left a profound impact on me, for which I am so eternally grateful. Even much so, my partner noticed a significant positive change in me.
Without a doubt, I’ll be back in touch if I ever need her guidance again.

I really don’t know how to begin writing a review of appreciation to Barbara. When we first met a number of years ago, my life was very different to what it is now.
I was experiencing episodes of dissociation (sometimes multiple times a week). Due to my partner having to live with someone who resembled Jekyll and Hyde, my relationship was struggling and reaching a breaking point.
Before starting sessions with Barbara I had tried other services, with the last of these pretty much telling me I was “cured” - only to go home and have another episode that night. I knew I needed to try someone/something else, to save not only my relationship but to help heal my trauma.
After a lot of web-browsing, into my life came Barbara. Straight from the off, there was a connection. She enabled me to open up without the feelings of shame that I’d associated with my past. With her help, I began to realise that my brain wasn’t broken or defective - it just needed rearranging. With regular sessions and the support of my wife, things began to improve.
Now my wife and I enjoy life for what it is - without the worry of ‘is it going to happen today’.
Was it easy - most definitely not!
Was it worth it - without a doubt.
Since my time with Barbara began, I’ve got married, had three promotions and purchased a house.
Take the leap and get in touch with Barbara, it will be the best thing you do.
