Testimonials

“After experiencing a challenging year which affected me both emotionally and physically I finally plucked up the courage to get help.  I walked into Jenny’s office with dread, another bout of counselling roping up the past and looking for answers to what I already knew, but did I?

I’m Andrea, Im a single mum to a wonderful 8 year old, I work full time, life is busy and exhausting…….  After 8 weeks of alternative counselling I found myself embracing the hugs that came in abundance from my daughter.  I sat with her when she cried at the loss of her friends, her challenges with being bullied and battling with her new world in a single parent household.

The Circle of Security helped me understand that feeling in my stomach that made me want to retreat in a different direction. I observed her from afar and learnt for the first time to identify her triggers and when she needed me to open my arms and when she needed me to let her just be.  I discovered during this time that I am the most important thing in her life – she adores me and I’m worthy of her love.  We’re connecting on a number of levels that I never dreamed was possible.

Everyone needs a helping hand, they need to feel supported and more importantly loved.  I believe the Circle of Security has been instrumental in gaining balance in my life and my relationships and it wasn’t hard to grasp – in fact it really was quite simple filling my cup”.
