I am a survivor of domestic violence and have participated in therapy for large number of years. During this time, I encountered a few therapists whose approaches were not constructive; in some cases, their responses appeared to validate the behaviour of the perpetrator, leading me to question my own perceptions. As a result of these experiences, I became discouraged about the prospect of receiving effective support.
Life often puts you exactly where you need to be, and that was certainly true when I met Jeff from Soul Star Counselling. Our meeting happened by chance near his company vehicle, and what struck me immediately about Jeff was how he took time out of his busy day to talk with me in a way I’d never experienced before. He was empathetic, offered comfort, and showed real kindness regarding what I’d gone through. Jeff accommodated my needs by scheduling an appointment that fit well with my work commitments.
After six months of therapy with Jeff, I can truly say I’ve changed. My confidence, self-esteem, and sense of self-worth have all soared to new heights—I barely recognise who I was half a year ago. For any women reading this, please take it from a very satisfied client: reach out to Jeff at Soul Star Counselling. The positive changes he facilitated are truly remarkable.
I highly, highly recommend Jeff as your therapist.
