Client Testimonial

“…I felt like I'd finally got to know myself. My work with Cleo took a route I hadn't expected but which I'm so grateful for. Without ever pushing me, her gentle guidance, kindness and wisdom gave me the courage to really explore. It's been eight months since I left but I still regularly call upon things that I discovered and found helpful during our sessions.”

  • Trained Higher Education lecturer in counselling and psychotherapy to adult students, providing a wealth of experience in teaching, mentoring, and supporting personal and professional growth.
