Edith’s compassionate guidance was a lifeline during a very difficult time. We were
struggling with grief, loss, and anxiety, and she provided us with invaluable support
and techniques to help us manage these issues. Her empathy and understanding
were truly comforting, and the tools she equipped us with will be instrumental inmaintaining our mental well-being moving forward. We can't recommend Edith
highly enough.

Such a positive experience. From my first session, I felt deeply understood, relaxed
and comfortable with Edith. Offering empathy, creating a safe environment to open
up and learning great tools to help and support me going forward, can’t
recommend her enough.

I went to Edith to build my capacity to support myself with some difficult andevolving life circumstances. Edith was warm, friendly, compassionate, empathetic,
understanding, professional and non-judgemental and I felt a great rapport fromthe first session. Edith listened without judgement and had insightful andknowledgeable tips. Each session was structured but yet informal andexpectations were set from the onset. Edith introduced me to many tools to build
my capacity and held me accountable by challenging me in solution based
homework. The environment Edith has created in the counselling room is warm,
homely and welcoming. Working with Edith has been so helpful in building mycapacity to support myself, reducing my anxiety, encouraging me to practise
mindfulness and to actively reflect and managing stress. Thank you Edith you areamazing!

I was going through a really difficult period of my life due to the pandemic, two
young kids (both under 2) and a demanding job. I reached out to Edith to ask forhelp dealing with everything and it was the best decision I could have made. Edith
listened to what I had to say and identified the root issue. It was a big surprise tome that I had general anxiety but Edith provided me with the tools to enable me to
manage this and function effectively to the benefit of myself and my family. It
wasn’t a quick fix but if you commit to Edith’s advice, I can guarantee your life willchange for the better. I can’t thank you enough Edith.
My wife and I also recently came to Edith to help get our relationship back on trackas it had fell to the way side due to having two young kids close in age, having two
demanding jobs and trying to maintain our hobbies/interests. Edith quickly
identified the main issue we were having and set in place a number of tools to help
us deal with this so that our relationship could begin to get stronger. We both

Edith was a great help last year throughout December and January when I sufferedfrom anxiety and felt constantly low and tired because of a serious burnout causedby my job after moving to this country on my own. Only looking back now I realise
how unwell and vulnerable I was - and Edith was the help I needed! She was warm,
patient, understanding, and helped me get better, teaching me how to use my tools
which have been a great help since when I feel overwhelmed and how to use myvoice. She has been a true gift from God helping me endure the storms and to raise
above them. Her help during those 2 months really wasn't just a "lifebuoy" thatsaved me from drowning in a certain situation but she taught me how to "swim" inthe often stormy seas of life for which I'll always be thankful.

I first found Edith through reading some of the reviews on Google. I was very
anxious and dealing with health anxiety due to close family member being
diagnosed with illness. Edith was very warm and welcoming and allowed me tochat as much as I wanted about issues I was having. She put a plan in place andwe worked through it, I really looked forward to our weekly sessions and always
went away feeling as though I had learnt something and different ways to manage
my anxieties. Edith taught me different techniques to implement when I was
struggling which I was able to put into practice at home. I very quickly noticed adifference in myself and have continued to practice what I learnt at home. I would
highly recommend Edith to anyone who is seeking counselling.

I cannot thank Edith enough for what she has done for me the past year. Edith
guided me in expressing my emotions and how to manage them appropriately.
Edith has taught me how to cope and talk about grief and has encouraged me to do
things, I always thought would be too painful for me to cope with. Edith has given
me many strategies to support my anxiety, which really have helped changed myway of living and thinking.
I really cannot recommend Edith enough, her professionalism and empathy makes
it so easy to open up and you feel like you are really being heard with nojudgement.
I am a different person from this time last year and I cannot thank Edith enough for
this!

I brought my daughter to Edith a number of years ago and can honestly say she isincredibly gifted at what she does and the outcome and improvement with mydaughter was profound.
Her approach was compassionate, at times direct and challenging in a
nonjudgmental way, (which my daughter expressed was what she needed), andhelped not only my daughter but us as a family to navigate an incredibly difficult
period in our life's. Although, we attended with the intention to help my daughter, italso challenged me as a mother to deal with my issues in order to help her which I
wasn't expecting to do but resulted in being very productive and rewarding in thelong term. She gave me back my daughter and I'll always be incredibly grateful forthat. I would highly recommend Edith to anyone and delighted that she hasreceived her recent awards and MBE as it most definitely well deserved.
Thank you Edith

I have known Edith for a long time now, through ups and downs in my marriage andfamily relationships. I am very grateful to her for the help I received over those
years. The counselling journey was not always easy, but Edith’s professionalism
and skill kept me going and progressing until I began to see and learn the things I
needed to see. I have changed a lot since I first met Edith. I’m a better man now & I
credit Edith for that. I was not always the best client, and I was often slow to learn
but Edith was patient with me and looking back- I’m so grateful for that.

Attended CBT counselling with Edith at a very stressful period of my life. Using
practical CBT based techniques Edith taught me how to think in a more balanced
way which changed my life. I am now CBT trained myself and a Mental HealthTrainer with a large Mental Health Charity.
I have recommended Edith to many people - having benefitted from her superb
professional counselling myself. Edith has a lovely relaxed manner, will make you
feel so welcome and works from a beautiful, purpose-built discreet location in
Lisburn.
If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or any othermental health challenges I would strongly recommend that you contact Edith confident that she will help you just as she did me quite a few years ago.

I started sessions with Edith at the beginning of 2022, during which time she built a
CBT treatment plan catered to my past/current struggles and future needs.
Edith has played a vital, instrumental part in helping me embrace and conquer myanxiety in a healthy way, enabling me to deal with it effectively going forward. In
every session, she validated my feelings and experiences while making me feel
truly listened to. She also trained me on utilising the essential tools to enable me toprogress on my own.
The things that previously felt so daunting and impossible now feel bearable andmanageable. As a result of the sessions, I’ve become empowered alongside thetools I’ve learned to use to better myself and deal with difficult situations.
Therapy with Edith has helped me in numerous ways, it’s transformed me as aperson and I’d recommend her to everyone.

I engaged in counselling with Edith as a result of unresolved trauma. I experienced
low mood, lack of motivation and was dependent on medication to function.
Naturally I was nervous before my first session, however Edith quickly put me atease. I started the journey pretty hopeless after years of being stuck in a rut andsurviving rather than thriving. As a result of the work I completed with Edith I findmyself thriving, my confidence has increased, I am achieving goals that once felt
out of reach and both my mental and physical health have improved. As a result of
my journey and the healing that took place, I am now functioning without the helpof medication. I couldn't recommend Edith highly enough, she made a very a very
difficult and painful process bearable and her skills and expertise guided me along
the path to healing.

I unfortunately lost my first baby in March 2020 at 13 weeks pregnant. I wasmatched with Edith through a counselling at work. I was given 6 sessions. I
remember my first session vividly and I remember E telling me that by the lastsession I will be able to tell me story without the raw pain that I couldn't cope withat the time. I remember thinking that is not possible in 6 sessions. I was in an
extremely dark place and could not see a way out.
I worked really hard with E and allowed myself to be completely open, honest andvulnerable with her, but that was only made possible because of her unbelievablekindness and professional skills. I felt connected to her and honestly felt like I was
finally speaking to someone who completely understood me. She let me take mytime to express myself and always made my thoughts and feelings feel valid. The
work we did together made sense every step of the way and I felt so encouraged
and I could feel myself improving with every session. With each session I cried lessand felt stronger and lighter.
I am now at a point in my life that I never thought I would be. I can now talk about
my baby without feeling the raw pain as much as I used to and when I do feel sador relive painful memories I use the coping mechanisms I learnt from E to workthrough it. I look back and feel proud of the work that I did to feel better and climb
out of that dark space. I can laugh and enjoy life without feeling a huge sense of
guilt. I managed to go back to work as a Neonatal nurse, which is something I
didn't think I would be able to do. And I am currently 33 weeks pregnant with ourrainbow.
I feel like I owe E so much and I cannot put into words how grateful I am to her forher help. Thank you E for my being my professional friend.

I first attended counselling with Edith many years ago when an ongoing battle withsevere anxiety and panic was limiting all aspects of my day-to-day life. Edith is awonderful person who managed to see something in me that I felt was lost. As oursessions progressed the panic and anxiety quickly lessened and I learnt a lot about
how I was failing to manage my emotional wellbeing. It’s been a sharp learning
curve and my immeasurable progress is a testament to her. After all this time I still
attend a few times a year. Looking after your mental health is vital. I couldn’t
recommend this lady high enough. You will benefit greatly just from knowing her.

I first attended Edith seven years ago and she has helped me immeasurably
through a wide variety of life's trials and tribulations in a professional, caring andcomforting way. She has provided me with tools I need to overcome challenging
situations that I have encountered in both my personal and professional life. I am
able check back in if I am having a difficult time and love having this added support
available. When I started I was in a very unhappy and challenging place and she
has helped me to become a more confident, successful, and most importantly,
happier individual. I can't recommend Serenity Counselling highly enough.

I've been working with Edith for a few years now and she's been invaluable inhelping me tackle my mental health difficulties. She's given me the tools andconfidence to overcome obstacles that I wouldn't have even attempted before.
She's also given me the boost in motivation to pursue interests and endeavours I
never thought possible.

I began counselling with Edith in 2013 after a history of depression, anxiety and
OCD and so many other related issues that come with untreated mental healthproblems. At the time I had struggled with these issues for so long I had no ability
to overcome them or the effect they had on my everyday life. I had tried counsellinga few times earlier in my life without any really positive or long lasting results. It
wasn’t until I met Edith and began treatment with her that I was able to understandand come to terms with my mental health problems and what had caused them.
Edith carefully and sensitively walked with me through a painful journey and she
successfully perfected the balance between creating a caring, safe atmosphereand a professional competent service. Edith has steered me through many difficult
times and as a result, I am a very different person now. I no longer suffer fromdebilitating mental health problems, I lead a happy life and because of the tools
and skills Edith taught me I feel confident to deal with all of life’s challenges. Whatmakes Edith unique is not just her professionalism, her wealth of experience andexpertise but her warmth, compassion and commitment to helping people heal andlive a full life.

We first met Edith in 2013 during a very difficult time in our lives following thedeath of our little girl. From the moment we met Edith we knew she was the one tohelp us get through it. Her skills and real life experience combined to guide us
through the most challenging time of our lives. We are forever grateful to Edith forthe help and support that she gave to us and can safely say I don’t know where wewould be today if it wasn’t for the service she provides.
I have in the past and continue to highly recommend Edith to anyone that finds
themselves in a difficult place in their lives.

During a particularly challenging time at work I sought support and was referred tomeet with Edith.
As a Manager in social care, managing large teams of people I was overwhelmed
and burnt out, despite a deep commitment and love of my work. I wasapprehensive about seeking support but as soon as I met Edith I was put
immediately at ease and quickly started to look forward to our sessions.
Edith is compassionate, professional and highly skilled. She helped me tounderstand how I was feeling, and to accept that it was ok to feel so low! Sheequipped me to cope with and manage the challenges whilst ensuring that I was
taking care of root causes, prioritising myself in order to give my best at work.
As an experienced professional herself Edith also shared with me to validate someof the experiences I was having but also how she learned and developed, like amentor.

Men especially need to talk more. Talking really helped me. Edith really heard me ina very safe and confidential space. I wish I had sought support sooner. Would
strongly encourage you to at least book 1 session- youll book a second. Good luck!

My family and I have remained intact, thanks to the caring, professional andinsightful treatment we have received from Edith. She has been instrumental in theroad to recovery through several difficult emotional circumstances. In all issues
which we have brought to her over the years she has shown a wealth of knowledge,
patience and understanding. I can not thank her enough for her guidance when our
problems seemed insurmountable and she invested in our recovery with sincerity
and dedication.

My husband and i attended Edith for many months. This was due to him having
depression and this had impacted on our relationship. On our first meeting with
Edith, I immediately felt at ease to chat, cry and have a cup of tea ! Edith could
quickly summarise the issues we had and her knowledge and experience gave us
reassurance we could work through our difficulties. She gave hope to us byoffering numerous techniques to work with. Sometimes we struggled doing ourhomework ! but, we were never turned away or frowned upon, just, encouraged tokeep trying. Edith is a gifted counsellor. I would highly recommend her.

I met Edith at a difficult time in my life in 2002 and I continue to be indebted for the
professional way she approached my emotional needs with great empathy. Edith
was very insightful and wasn't afraid to ask the hard questions. As a result of theinner healing that she helped bring about, my husband and I have recommended
Edith to a wide variety of our contacts in Ireland and overseas.
The results speak for themselves.

I suffered a catastrophic breakdown in August 2019 after a series of personal
losses combined with tremendous stress at work. Councilling felt like a last resort

but I was lucky enough to be referred to Edith. Through a period of 6 months Edith
help rebuild my confidence and gave me the tools to deal with my loss. I returned
to work and have since been stronger than ever and better equipped to tackle lifes
challenges. I can't thank her enough for her patience, kindness and teaching.

Edith was highly recommended to me in 2016 at a time when I had become both
physically and mentally ill as a result of a combination of traumatic events over
several years. She is a compassionate, knowledgable, resourceful, highly
experienced and fundamentally deeply caring ‘one of a kind’. Edith has provided
family counseling and individual counseling for myself and my childrenintermittently throughout these past 4 years. Her passion for helping others to help
themselves shines through in everything she does. She is a truly lovely person
inside and out.

I would highly recommend Edith. She helped me through a very difficult time.
From the first time I went to see her in 2017, I felt that she connected with me,
understood what the issue was and provided fantastic support. She was available

Client Reviews*downloaded from Google Reviews September 2024

to see me when I needed it. This included one Sunday night when things had got
particularly bad….
When you can’t see the wood for the trees which was the position that I was in. You
need someone like Edith who can guide you through it and also be there when you
are out the other side
It’s been very useful to go back for sessions on the odd occasions that I need themeven now.
Thanks Edith
