"I started seeing Gemma to help me with confidence in myself, confidence in things I do,
and in talking to other people. Gemma has helped build my confidence. I am doing much
more now. Gemma helps me cope with life differently. We talk about problems I'm currently
going through and dissolve them. I would recommend Gemma to anyone struggling."

"Absolutely outstanding. Gemma has helped me change my thinking patterns to help create more
positives outcomes in my life. Has been there out of session hours if I have needed her to
help me rationalise the situation I am in. I can’t praise the positive experience I have been
fortunate to have enough, I recommend her to all of my friends and anyone who says they need
to talk to someone. It doesn’t feel like a “therapy session” it’s simply just chatting with a friend"

"Gemma is a calm, considerate and very knowledgeable Life Coach, who listens carefully and adapts to the
needs of others very quickly and sensitively. Her insights have helped me to survive. She is
generous with her time and her knowledge and I continue to be grateful to her."
CB (UK)
"I went to Gemma seeking something more than therapy and wanting to start bettering myself,
Gemma is a non judgemental, friendly professional who is great to work with in guiding you to
your goals and creates a comfortable environment wherever you are. I look forward to each
session and highly recommend Gemma if you are stuck in that rut looking for a way up and out."
