Feeling Overwhelmed? Private Counselling Can Help.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I saw a big difference

I saw a big difference in my child. Thank you for all of your help and support.

I never thought I would be feeling so much better today

Thank you to NECS for the amazing support I received, it has helped me get back to and stay in work, to look at myself a positive way and feel valued, before the sessions I never thought I would be feeling so much better today.

Thank you for being there for me

Thank you for being there for me, and helping my through some of the hardest times in my life.

Counselling has changed my life!

This is my 3rd time attending North East Counselling Services. Twice on my own and once for couple’s therapy. I just wish this service was closer to home and readily available to everybody. Counselling has changed my life. I’d do it every week forever if I could!

My counsellor was brilliant

Both the consistency and availability of appointment times is excellent. The level of interest and care that my counsellor offered was brilliant. My counsellor created a safe space in which I felt totally able to be.

My child’s sleep issues improved

My daughter took a long time (at least about five sessions as she gets particularly nervous around men she doesn’t know) to warm up to him. The counsellor never rushed her and my daughter could take her time to get comfortable to speak to him. My daughter has sleep issues and since seeing him, it has improved a lot!! It was helpful to receive a call from the counsellor prior to our daughter’s first session with him as we have histories of mental health issues in our family which something we haven’t discussed with our daughter as she’s still young.

We are so grateful for the positive impact counselling has had on our family.

Our family was going through a rough patch. Communication was strained and we were constantly arguing. Family counselling provided us with the tools and guidance we needed to improve our communication and resolve conflicts more effectively. We learned to listen to each other with empathy and respect, and our relationships are much stronger now. We are so grateful for the positive impact counselling has had on our family.

It truly has been an enormous help to us all

These sessions have been a godsend to me at a time in my life when I thought my whole world had fallen apart. It has allowed me to rationalise what has happened and help me to come to terms with it. My counsellor used amazing metaphors and facts to explain what was going on in my head as well as repeating what I had said in his own words which allowed me to reflect on a lot of things both in and out of the sessions. I would not be at that stage of my journey and development if I hadn’t have gotten the counselling at such a critical time. My development has also allowed me to help my 2 children in their trauma and coming to terms with what has happened. It truly has been an enormous help to us all.

I was hesitant to try couples counselling, but I’m so glad we did.

I was hesitant to try couples counselling, but I’m so glad we did. Our counsellor created a safe and non-judgmental space for us to share our feelings and work through our issues. We learned valuable communication skills and gained a deeper understanding of each other’s needs. Counselling helped us rediscover the love and respect we thought we had lost.
