Having never had counselling before I was initially very wary and nervous. My counsellor was nothing short of a legend! Her leading questions allowed me to find and express my own solutions. There were suggestions for self help. It was okay to cry and there was absolutely no judgement. I am extremely grateful that I had empathetic support on my very traumatic and painful journey.

Terressa is kind and supportive. I feel I can tell her anything and know she listens and responds with support and understanding. I highly recommend Connect Counselling.

I truly trust my mum as a counsellor. She is caring, patient, and really listens without judgment. Her support has helped me work through some tough times, and I always feel safe and understood when I talk to her. She knows how to gently guide me toward solutions that work for me, and I’m grateful to have someone so compassionate and qualified by my side. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and can help you navigate life’s challenges, I highly recommend her.
