Working with Emma has been the best choice I have ever made. I can’t recommend her highly enough she is kind, patient and has supported me through a number of things especially my confidence!

I recently underwent some counselling/therapy with Karen and had the best experience. Karen is understanding and made me feel at ease from my very first visit. The rewind therapy offered has had a real impact on me and has made me able to move forward from an event which had resonated with me for a long time. I cannot thank Karen enough, attending Grey Matters has really given me a new outlook and has enabled me to make changes to improve my lifestyle and understand the importance of self care.

Emily has recently helped our son with his anxiety, worries and low self-esteem. We have been very impressed by her methods, she is very friendly and approachable and created a trusting bond with him very quickly. We could not recommend Emily enough for her help and the techniques she has shown us will really help into the future.

I would recommend this company to everyone! I’m currently receiving therapy from Louise and she has built rapport and made me feel comfortable enough to open about everything. She has showed me so much support and compassion towards the experiences of womanhood, allowing me to make some really good process in therapy.

I found I got the support I needed from Karen at Grey matters. It was a safe space for me to address some emotions that I couldn’t seem to work through alone. I do recommend this business and Karen in particular as I left feeling lighter than I did when I started the sessions.

I have recently had some therapy with Karen who was incredible.
She knew exactly how to help me and helped me to focus again and get me back to my normal self. I would 100% recommend and will definitely be back if I feel I need therapy again. Lovely business and everyone seems so welcoming and kind.

Clare supported my son, using creative therapeutic child friendly activities and techniques. He really enjoyed the sessions and has some strategies to help him. We also gained an insight into some of what he was struggling with. I would highly recommend Clare

I'm so happy I chose therapy with Joanna, you changed my life and broke a cycle of in and out of depression of around 15 years, I understand so much more about myself. I find positives in pretty much everything I do rather than the negatives that used to ruin me. You boosted my confidence so I can be the best I can be and be proud of it. thank you so much I really appreciate your help.
