Lin has really helped to build my self esteem!! Lin is a caring, considerate and very understanding lady who made me feel very comfortable throughout our sessions. I will definitely be recommending Lin to anyone I know struggling! More...

I very much appreciated and valued my sessions with Lin, she is friendly, easy to talk to and while you will be challenged on occasions (no bad thing) she is not judgemental. I would happily recommend Lyn to anyone. More...

Relationship and Marriage Counselling
I'd like to recommend Lin after she helped my partner and I through an extremely difficult patch in our relationship after a move went wrong. She was good at making us address our concerns together in a supportive (neutral!) environment and helped us set some rules to avoid problems arising again in future. I particularly liked the way she challenged our reluctance to discuss some difficult issues in a sensitive way (although I don't think my partner was not very comfortable with this!). We're back on track now, so well done, Lin, and thank you! More...

I’ve only had my first session with Lin but I think she’s going to be really helpful to me. She listens and has a gentle, reassuring nature. I’m happy so far!

Lin put my son at ease and made him feel comfortable. He wasn't keen on talking but has started to open up which is wonderful.
Connor
Therapist
After coming to Lin with my partner to iron out some communication issues, Lin has worked magic and we have both seen a huge increase in our communication and how we handle disagreements from roughly 5 session. Such a comfortable environment I cannot recommend Lin enough! More...
Danielle
Counselling
Highly recommend lin, she made me feel very comfortable during our sessions and made it easy to open up about stuff I’ve always found hard to speak about to others.
Liz
Therapist
Highly recommend Lin , she was easy to talk to, she helped me unravel and understand why I was feeling what I was feeling following two bereavements.
She helped with practical suggestions and by just listening.
Feeling much stronger and able to move on with my life.
But I also have the knowledge that I can contact Lin again if I have any setbacks.
Thank you

I made a mistake on my previous review not noticing that you had to also leave a star rating. Unfortunately it defaulted to 1 star.
I would like to correct this now.
I contacted Lin on behalf of a friend. She responded quickly and was very accomodating. My friend has already had his first session with Lin which progreesed well.
Thank you Lin.

I'm thankful that Lin chose to help me. Even talking to her about setting up an appointment she managed to make me feel a little at ease. Which is hard to do because I'm very anxious and don't trust people anymore. Looking forward to my first session. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I love the challenge of finding strength in people who struggle with life, giving people the chance to make a change or make a decision.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I feel im good with people, and know I have the ability to hold people while they work through difficult issues in life. I find working for myself allows me more flexibility to see various clients rather than staying in one area.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am good at what i do, I am professional, articulate and patient and offer a safe, private space for people to find there way. I am very experienced in therapy and in life.
For me it feels where i should be helping others in they way i have been trained and have natural tendencies for.
