Whitley Bay Therapy -

Christina L.

I came to Michela @Whitley Bay Therapy after realising I needed professional support to help me process and heal from a number of life changes that I was going through, from the death of my Dad, to moving house and trying to rebuild my business. I felt under a lot of pressure and as a result I was experiencing high levels of anxiety, frustration and sadness.

From the beginning Micheala made me feel at ease - holding space with gentle compassion, whilst helping me acknowledge and process the very natural, human responses I was having to challenging situations. I began to feel positive changes after only a few sessions. I now feel much stronger and at ease within myself, having reached a level of acceptance within my grief journey.

Not only is she a highly skilled Therapist, offering a number of approaches, she also brings a very nurturing and compassionately curious approach to each and every session.The sessions were held in Michael’s beautiful home, which only added to the warmth of the therapeutic experience.Therapy is an investment in yourself, therefore it is so important to find a person who you feel safe with.If you are struggling with any facet of your mental health, I would highly recommend Michaela in a heartbeat. I cannot thank you enough for all of your help and support Michaela - you have made a huge difference in a time when I needed it most.

For a year or so, i had been struggling with anxiety, something which was worsened by my inability to set boundaries with those around me. I wanted to speak to someone, but was nervous about opening up to a stranger. Michaela broke down these feelings immediately. She was understanding, professional, and made me feel at ease right from the very beginning. I felt myself changing after even just a few sessions. She built up my self esteem and allowed me to make changes in my life which has made my life better. My anxiety is manageable and I have implemented boundaries which have strengethend relationships with those around me. I have overcome many obstacles in the process but Michaela's help guided me through. I could not thank Michaela enough for all her efforts. She is a wonderful person who I would recommend in a heartbeat.

Whitley Bay Therapy has really supported me through a tough period without which I would not have recovered as fast or as well in a relatively short period. The services offered in a time where face to face therapy is not an option has been exceptional, especially the walk and talk sessions which are socially distanced and private despite being able to walk a route with a view. I highly recommend Whitley Bay Therapy to anyone who needs counselling - absolutely worth every penny.
