I first met with Julie for our one 2 one sessions over zoom in June 2021 after the death of my mum. I was referred to her for Bereavement Counselling.
Whilst having these sessions, Julie invited me to join in her living in the moment workshop.
Having therapy with Julie was amazing for me and helped me grow in to the person
I am now. The workshop gave me confidence to socialise, taught me self-worth and encouraged me to live in the present. The tools I have been given allow me to live my life the way I want to. Be a better person and be a better mum.
With Julie’s help and being part of the workshop had given me the strength to start a career. Something I thought at my age wouldn’t happen. I am now a facilitator for the Kent and Medway Recovery College, I volunteer with Home-Start and now I volunteer with Live Well Kent.
I am also volunteering with Julie in her current “Living in the Moment” workshop. Seeing it from the other side has given me a whole new perspective on the effects Julie has to give to lots of people. The confidence she is installing in all of her clients. She teaches us all to be present and focus on the NOW. The connection that has been made by all of the group is just inspiring and this has been facilitated by Julie. I can see the impact Julie and her counselling has on all of us. I will be forever grateful for the gift Julie has given me, but more importantly she taught me to be proud.
