Counselling &
Clinical Supervision Testimonials

“I have been meeting with Carolyn regularly for 6 months and it has been a time of huge growth and learning for me. I feel very comfortable opening up to her, and I appreciate the way she uses both her counselling and life coaching skills as appropriate to the issues I want to discuss. I have learnt so much about how I ‘talk to myself’, plus new skills to change this for the better. I feel a lot more positive, confident and at peace.”

“I have been attending the Metro Counselling Service for about eight years, for Counselling through Clinical supervision, (a requirement for professional development by having clinical supervision, being a professional counsellor myself). During this time I have been given counselling supervision where I have been able to express my feelings and thoughts both personal; and work related in a manner where I have felt a strong therapeutic relationship with my supervisor, in a manner that is secure, empathetic and understanding, where I have been challenged and supported both with personal issues and with my clients at my workplace. The service provided by Metro Counselling service is both Professional in its business and in its Counselling service, is highly ethical and non-judgemental in practice. Counselling Supervision through the Metro Counselling Service has enabled me to continue to be able to demonstrate strong professional practice by myself with my clients in the knowledge that I am being as best in practice as a counsellor as I can be for my clients to enable them to work through their difficulties in their lives to progress forward to change that will make a difference for themselves and society in general. “

“Carolyn has shown me the alternatives to the perception that we have no choice or that our lives are determined by things that appear to be our control. I spent a considerable number of years letting my path be lead by others and invested a lot of energy in trying to accommodate situations that I was inherently uncomfortable with. I have learnt how to take control of my life and think about ways to achieve my own goals. Sometimes we forget our own strength when things aren’t going to plan. She has taught me to be confident in making changes where they are needed and following my own convictions which inevitably lead to the right decisions. From this my own sense of strength has gradually returned and I am beginning to revel in the rediscovered sense of knowing and accomplishment. “

“Carolyn helped me through a very challenging time in my life. Her insight and emotional support helped me to heal emotionally and spiritually during a very difficult time. Carolyn’s professionalism and gentle, supportive nature made me feel comfortable and able to be open about very personal issues. I truly am indebted to Carolyn for her help and consider her to be a genuine inspiration. “

“Metro Counselling really helped and supported me in dealing with some issues that I had in my life, they were really easy to talk to and understood how I was feeling. They made it easy to make appointments to suit my life and they were always there for me . K.V. Perth”
