'The therapy was life changing'
“I saw Michaela while dealing with a prolonged postnatal depression that triggered or evidenced problems in my marriage and increased my tendency to be anxious. From the moment we spoke on the phone I felt calmed and reassured by the empathy and compassion she showed. The therapy was life changing, I was able to deal and organise the mess of emotions and fears I had in my head. My husband and I were able to communicate effectively as we had not done in months thanks to the way Michaela guided the conversations and to the comfortable ambiance she created for both of us.
Very importantly, she stressed the importance of mindfulness, meditation and assuming a compassionate and non-judgmental approach when assuming my life. Even a couple of years after having had therapy, Michaela has helped by offering advice in moments of anxiety and stress including the birth of my second son.”
