After 6 sessions with the Counsellor, I have to say this was the best decision to do either for my mental state or lifestyle. Always there for me, when I called unexpectaly and during sessions as well. Was hard but it did make me feel like I can be myself, hope and see a better future ahead of me.
I higly recommend them, the waiting list might be long but was damn worth it!!
