Take a moment to reflect on just how far you’ve come!
I am so incredibly proud of your hard work & progress.
I’d love to share your journey as a celebration of you.
Take a look back and share a
testimonial of your incredible journey
Thank you for considering writing a testimonial of your journey with counselling.
This is a moment to CELEBRATE you for showing up for yourself, facing the hard stuff and equipping yourself with awareness, knowledge and tools to support yourself.
My mission is to make counselling a warm, safe and enjoyable experience, and breaking down barriers to accessing support is the hardest step for people to take.
Sharing your words tells others that they can get better, support is out there, and that it’s really not that scary.
Let me help you make this easy…
The best testimonials show YOUR progress and the transformation that YOU achieved.
You may have wrapped up counselling, or still continuing; it doesn’t matter when it comes to reflecting on your changes.
I’ve prepared some easy prompts for you.
You can choose one from each section that you naturally finish, OR just write whatever you want from the heart.
There is no wrong way to do this, just feel free and remember, no-one will know it’s you!
The best testimonials are specific and tell your personal story, so don’t be shy of a little vulnerability.
If using the prompts, try to choose one sentence from each of the sections below to show your transformation.
Write your response in the feedback form below.
