Hello!
We have some feedback from one of our clients who is a 30 year old male.
We like them because they succinctly describe the powerful effect of the counselling/listening process – how much we can shift when we’re ready and when we’re listened to.
THE GROUP
“Really enjoyed the group – seeing different people with the same problem”
1-1
Q How come you seem so much brighter and seemed to have turned a corner?
A “having someone to moan at – you! Having someone to listen to me for once. Having a purpose –thinking. ..I’m looking forward to talking to F about my disease, alcohol – someone who has other opinions- someone who doesn’t really know me but still has all the right things to say”.
Q How has this panned out in your life? Has anyone else noticed?
A “I’ve been a lot more chirpy with friends- they’ve noticed I’m happier. I was at a friends parents house the other night and they were cooking a meal for us. I noticed then, that I could ask for what I wanted, rather than get what I’m given”
Q Would you say that you’ve got back to your old self?
A No. I’m Just a lot happier now- I’ve spent the last 4-5 years dwelling on what’s happening and now I’m thinking ’ sod it’ I might as well get on with it”
If this has inspired you or you think someone could benefit from reading this then please do share it.
Thanks.
