Testimonials

  • Ros has been my counsellor for almost five years now. Her more than three decades of experience as a therapist has been evident during our time working together, helping us to deftly navigate many very private and sensitive topics. Her Gestalt influences and particular passion for the subject of loneliness lead her to a great understanding of issues from the emotional and embodied standpoint, helping to always focus on the needs and feelings of the client. Always highly attuned, Ros makes me feel incredibly seen through her empathetic approach and sage takes on situations which truly reflect her incisive and caring character. It is rare to find someone like Ros who genuinely hears rather than just listening. She creates a powerful space where anything and everything can be shared and worked through, where you feel held whilst you carefully unpack your troubles. Finding a good therapist can be a real challenge, especially because you are often trying to do it at a time you don’t feel at your best, relying on short online bios to try to gauge if you will develop the deep trust and personal connection that makes for successful counselling; I feel incredibly lucky to have found Ros and I know that our exceptional professional relationship has not come about by chance but rather because of her exceptional skill as a therapist. I cannot recommend her highly enough. [TP, London]
  • Ros is a truly gifted counsellor. She is non-judgmental, kind, empathetic and deeply intuitive. I have worked with her for over seven years, through various phases of my life – some happy, some extremely challenging – and have always found it a very positive experience. Most of all, Ros has helped me to make my own decisions positively, finding the right and healthy choices for me. At very difficult times, she has gone above and beyond to support me. I am now in a very happy marriage and have a little baby and it is not an overstatement to say that I owe a great deal of my happiness to Ros and her skilful and highly professional support. I have no doubt that I will continue to turn to her as part of maintaining good mental health and to deal with the challenges that life inevitably brings. [HG. San Francisco, CA]
  • Ros is a fantastic counsellor. I have been seeing her for three years. She is warm, caring, highly insightful and totally professional. With her illuminating insights I have transformed my life, have entered a wonderful new relationship and, dare I say it, am so much happier than I was. I recommend Ros wholeheartedly. [PW.

  • Had a very positive experience working with Ros, who helped me through a difficult time as a new parent during lockdown, delving into my past and helping me to better understand myself as a father and as a man. She challenged me, but without judgement, and always gave me space to work through things on my own. Ros is a skillful and empathic professional, and her support has been invaluable. I would recommend her to anyone. (She also has a very cute dog.)[JT, Hampstead]
  • Ros brings both wisdom and humour to her sessions – with a good dose of honesty which draws out the same honesty in response. She truly sees me and this makes me want to be as present, open and engaged as I can – all to my own benefit! Ros strikes the right balance of being kind, and yet direct, of showing understanding but also challenging me to dig a little deeper, move a little further, to step into uncomfortable spaces and become comfortable with them. She knows when I need to ‘rest’ and yet keeps me from resting on my laurels. My hour with her is as important as a good night’s rest. I am stronger, nourished, healthier – I’m empowered to reset, take stock, lay down baggage. It’s a gift – hers and therefore mine. [GL]
  • Working with Ros has been a life-changing experience.  She taught me the value of honest and open communication. Her candour, experience, professionalism and sense of humour all contribute to a safe environment where you can address any matter.  Not sure where I would be if it wasn’t for Ros.

  • I felt immediately at ease in Ros’s presence. She challenges me to dig deep and listen to my inner voice. With her I am developing a kind of self-love I didn’t think possible. Ros is truly gifted, and she has the capability to bring the gifted out in anyone. [RA]
  • Ros has been very supportive during a difficult year for me. She is professional and very knowledgeable. Our therapy sessions have become my place of refuge to deal with grief, but also a place to grow and reflect.  Ros has helped me build personal boundaries and learn to enjoy life. [BF]
  • I really appreciate how much Ros has helped me over these years, and owe so much credit for my life life improvements to her support, guidance and understanding. [PT]
  • Ros is helping me find myself in what has been a confusing and chaotic year.  She is a gifted listener and distils what is important from the ‘noise’.  Our sessions feel like a healthy mix of reflection and constructively looking forwards and I owe a lot of my developing confidence and direction to Ros’s thoughtfulness and experience.

  •  A close friend introduced me to Ros during a time of personal crisis. I had turned 32 without having had a healthy relationship for many years.  I had become very cynical about relationships and did not feel capable of having one.   Ahead of my first session, I was very skeptical that she would be able to help me in any way. I had already tried a different therapist with no considerable change. Ros has helped me experience growth that for me was unimaginable. In a caring and compassionate manner, we identified events in my life that had hindered my ability to express emotion.  During this process I discovered a much stronger, confident and self-affirming person within myself. She helped me enhance my self-awareness and pinpoint flaws that really affected the way I interacted with people and sabotaged any potential relationships. I have learnt to set boundaries, communicate my feelings in a constructive way and identify and arrest destructive behaviours.  My therapy with Ros has been invaluable and life-changing. Throughout the entire process I never felt there was anything I could not talk about. She made me realise that self-improvement is feasible after I had spent many years feeling hopeless and stuck.
