Full Circle - Liverpool

Shirley Clugston

After 60 years of feeling like I was ‘carrying something ‘ but not really understanding what , I had an epiphany - this is proving to be life changing on a posiitve note. However it has proven to be emotionally very challenging too.

I decided that therapy may support me in this so I embarked on looking at different therapists and trying to guage whom I could connect with - not easy as there are so many to choose from. I deliberated a lot and tried to follow my gut feeling.

This was the first time I had considered having therapy. Fortunately I decided to make contact with Marianna and I am so glad I did. From the start I felt an instant connection with her. She is very approachable and warm and immediately made me feel at ease.

Marianna has been very supportive over the past few months and I feel totally at ease when I meet with her. She is very knowledgeable and experienced and has helped me understand myself so much more.
I have found the therapy to be very helpful in giving me a much greater understanding of my emotions and how to process events . It has been liberating - after each therapy session I am feeling emotionally stronger.

I am looking forward to further sessions with Marianna as I can see that I am really benefiting from them. I would highly recommend Marianna if, like me you are considering having therapy. She is professional and at the same time very warm and understanding.

Julie - I was sceptical about the benefits that I could derive from attending counselling after the death of my mum. I felt my life was broken and couldn’t imagine a future that didn’t have my mum in it. She died prematurely. Eventually I found Full Circle Counselling and I cannot overstate just how much Marianna has helped my thinking about my grief. In the couple of years since, I also experienced great stress from my occupation and again, she has been instrumental in helping through this difficult time. I would recommend Marianna to anyone; she has literally saved my life by rejuvenating me every time I see her.

I’ve had 14 sessions with Marianna and she has helped me tremendously with daily struggles I had with anxiety and we are working together on some grief work too. I look forward to my sessions with Marianna as I know how helpful they are and I can’t believe how much better I feel compared to the start of the year. Marianna is compassionate in sessions and so helpful - I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for therapy and I’m looking forward to our future sessions.

I have just finished a course of my first therapy sessions. I am so glad I chose Marianna for this. She is warm, welcoming and made me feel at ease throughout. She has helped me navigate
through some difficult areas in my life and has given me some really useful tools to help moving forward. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Marianna has been utterly amazing and was exactly what I needed coming out of a very difficult time. Having had therapists before who I have never particularly had a great affinity to, Marianna has been the exception. Brilliant therapist who is incredibly easy to get on with and understanding - could not recommend more.

I have just recently finished a 16 week course with Marianna. During this time she helped me tremendously with some very challenging issues I was facing. I have tried 2 previous therapists and expensive hypnotherapy, however I clicked with Marianna in way I didn’t with previous help. She is warm, caring attentive and compassionate. She listens well and creates an environment where you can express your feelings comfortably. Thank you Marianna, it was a pleasure to work with you and I thank you for all your help, particularly in the moments when I was really struggling.

If anyone is looking to experience therapy for the first time like i did i would highly recommend marianna. She is hilarious and has a great sense of humour to help lift you but is also very understanding and an amazing listener that gives you your space to open up. I wasint always able to get to see her in person due to having such a busy hectic schedule but she was always willing to accommodate last minute in person appointments and change it for a facetime or phone call. Would highly recommend 5 stars ☆

I came to Marianna in the midst of a mental health collapse following a period of chronic stress and the loss of my dad. When we first met, I didn't really understand what was happening to me, I just knew I wasn't well. Over our time together, she has supported me step-by-step as I've rebuilt my life following this particularly dark time, which has included taking time from work, returning to work, and more generally creating new tools and awareness. Marianna has felt like my biggest cheerleader throughout every step.

I have been to therapy in the past but always felt it was just a conversation (which might be all some people need), but with Marianna it feels purposeful, educational and every session feels like the time is being used to the full. I feel like finding Marianna has given me a lifeline, a resource which I can use in the future should I need it, which gives me immense comfort and strength as I move forward.
