Testimonials

Trust me, signing up with Irma will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make

Irma truly understood who I was, what I was trying to express...nothing I said was ever wrong

Thank you for the session last night, it was an emotional one, and it speaks to your gift/skills/abilities that we both felt comfortable & safe enough to get upset...thank you for holding a space which allows us to be how we need to be.

...my therapy has relieved stress & helped me get through every week, you have done a lot for me...

Counselling with Irma has given me the clarity to understand & see my autonomy. From this process, I feel a renewed sense of self-acceptance, self-compassion & self-respect. Most importantly, I feel it is in my power to have a good life.

Irma is more than just a counsellor; she's also a guide & teacher. She's not only skilled in what she does, you can feel she has personally experienced & worked through the process herself. Over our year & a half together, she's shown nothing but patience & understanding. Every session she's there with insights that resonate deeply, helping me see things in a new light. It's never about pushing me but more about those gentle nudges that steer me towards a better path.

Thanks to Irma, I've found a sense of integration & peace within myself that I didn't know was possible. I'm genuinely happier & more in tune with who I am. If you're looking for someone who will truly make a difference in your life, I can't recommend Irma enough. I'm beyond grateful for everything she's done for me & I hope others get to experience the same transformation with her guidance.
