“invaluable”

Sam, I just want to (once again) thank you for the major role you have played in my healing process. My counselling sessions with you provided an invaluable opportunity for me to express my thoughts, feelings and with your perfect feedback, (mostly by questioning), to immediately be able to mindfully reflect on where I was at, at each stage of my prostate and melanoma cancer/s journey.

It’s been a difficult 23 months and it’s also been an invaluable and humbling lesson in life values …and today … I am ‘in remission’!

I am extremely grateful to you

Thank you - Thank you - Thank you”

“massively helped with my anxiety”

I’d like to thank Sam for putting me at ease from the first minute of our introductory session and being someone I immediately felt comfortable with. Having never sought therapy in the past I was both intrigued & somewhat apprehensive around what I’d get out of it & what direction the talks would go but I can honestly say the sessions have massively helped with my anxiety in recent months to put things into perspective and sleepless nights worrying over the daily stresses of work are now a rarity. Thank you Sam”

“helped me turn my life around”

Can’t thank Sam enough for what she did for me. Really helped me turn my life around following a bereavement that left me struggling. I set out from the start what I needed to get out of the sessions and why, to allow me to reach certain goals, and I’m happy to say she’s a huge contributing factor in every single one of these. She always listened to me, and made me feel valued as well and offering suggestions and really making an effort to get to know me. Would highly recommend - thank you Sam!”

“it has been a life saver for me”

I have been seeing Sam for many months and I can not recommend her and her service more. When I first arrived at her place I was full of anxiety... full of self doubt... and very unhappy with many issues from my past and current life... i was so pleased her studio was warm welcoming and unintimidating.
I needed a friendly face and an empathic ear and that is exactly what I got. She is such a professional in every way listening without judgment and there’s always a smile when you need it.
I have been supported every step of the way and have noticed a massive change in my anxiety, depression and even my confidence.... I was skeptical about therapy at first but it has been a life saver for me and I cannot thank Sam enough for all her continued help.”

“personable, empathetic, non-judgmental”

If you are thinking of counselling for any reason whatsoever, your first thought will probably be, what’s the counsellor like? will we get on? can they help?

These questions are incredibly important to you and me. in my experience it took me a little over 30 seconds to decide if Sam would be my counsellor, She is personable, empathetic, non-judgmental (as you would expect) and incredibly good at what she does. She has helped me in so many ways in such a short space of time, her space is relaxing, her sofa is comfortable and she has an exceptional way of making her clients feel welcomes and comfortable, nothing it too much.

If you are thinking of counselling for any number of reasons, you too will feel relaxed and at ease in a welcoming space with a great counsellor (you will understand once you meet her what I mean).”

“boost my confidence”

I had never been to therapy before so was quite nervous but Sam made me feel at ease straight away. Sam made it very easy to talk and helped me get through family bereavement and also to change how I thought about myself and boost my confidence.
I would highly recommend Sam (thefarnhamcounsellor) if you just want to talk or go deeper.”

“safe and secure environment”

I have never been to counselling before and was very nervous about starting this.
Sam has made me feel relaxed and tailors each session around what I need or will lead if I need it. I’m not going to say all my sessions have been easy - I am learning to look at things differently and this can be both emotional and hard work but this takes place in a very safe and secure environment which helps immensely.
Thank you Sam”
