Client Testimonials

“Dear Paulina

I feel anxious, sad and tearful that my appointments with you are coming to an end. You have been so helpful, understanding, and I can honestly say that you are one of the very few people in my life that I have encountered, where I have felt safe, able to open up just a little bit. I also trust you implicitly which is a huge thing for me. I feel like you have my back.

I completely understand that my therapy appointments with you would always come to an end, and I am so grateful that you have taken the time to refer me to further specialist mental health services.

The tools you have given me to help cope with my complex PTSD have been so helpful, and I promise to keep using them as I progress through my future treatment.

I want you to know that whatever happens in my life going forward, I will always be so grateful to you for the help you have given me. I wish you nothing but good things in your life. You truly are a good person and you are one of the very few people who have touched my life in a positive way.

‘I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become’

Once again, thank you for just being a superstar. I will never forget you”

"I would love to give a big thank you to Paulina. She has helped me overcome all my health anxiety and general anxiety problems. I am a new person thanks to her :-)"

Michelle (CBT client - Health Anxiety focus)

The 1:1 session was difficult at first as I had strong emotions on arrival, but soon I dropped into my body and the gentle guidance from Paulina into experiencing the present moment sensations as they were and exploring those was helpful and insightful. I soon forgot about external sounds; my neck pain and shoulder aches soon dissolved into a more overall awareness of my whole self. It was a very compassionate and beautiful practice with gentle use of language and explanation throughout.”

Kerry (Yoga Therapy client)

“Thank you for your time and your understanding Paulina. This therapy has been hugely effective, not just for my health anxiety but in many other areas of my life more generally. You've done your job really well!"

Simon (CBT client - Health Anxiety focus)

“I enjoy all of the Yoga classes. I like the variety of different routines, even when I can’t manage some poses sometimes, Paulina often gives alternative ones. I feel better for practicing and particularly enjoy the relaxation at the end.”

Lesley (Yoga Classes client)

“I look forward to my weekly Yoga practice (whether online or in person). Well-paced and accessible, no two classes are the same, and always leave me feeling both calm and energised at the same time. I've found the techniques Paulina taught me useful during my labour"

Carolyn (Yoga Classes client)

“I found the 1:1 Yoga Therapy sessions useful, but challenging at times. I did some poses that I would normally avoid, as they usually cause me pain in my lower back. It felt good for challenging myself, even though at times it was uncomfortable. It is useful to know what sort of movements I should be doing to help my back feel better. I learned something new today about how my thinking affects my pain, and I can see how for me this is a big part of the problem.”

Alex (Yoga Therapy client)

“I have just completed a 6-week beginners Yoga course with Paulina and I loved it. Each week we learnt more about Yoga, developing postures, breathing techniques and being in the moment. Paulina is a fantastic teacher, she explains and demonstrates each new pose and helps to correct our posture if we are not quite right. I enjoyed her style of teaching and I have learnt a lot. I can’t wait to continue my Yoga journey with Paulina. I highly recommend her Yoga classes”

Zara (Yoga Course client)

"I’ve found it helpful to learn different tools and technique to support myself, and to receive reassurance that I’m not alone in how I’m feeling. Paulina was kind, and I always felt listened to, without judgement. The sessions were very well structured and she’s clearly very knowledgeable, using different models to work through and break down unhelpful thought patterns. Paulina was a brilliant therapist and I really appreciated my time with her."

Rhianne (CBT client - Health Anxiety focus)

"The structured sessions helped me feel like I had direction while still having flexibility based on what I needed. I appreciated the variety of options and guidance in sessions. The access to external therapy resources was invaluable in keeping me engaged outside of our sessions and ensuring I was practicing what I learned. The approach felt like a real learning journey rather than just talking about my issues—it was solution-focused, which was very helpful. Paulina was warm and easy to open up to, which made the process feel safe and supportive. I liked that she outlined expectations upfront, which helped me stay patient and trust the process."

Anonymous (CBT/ERP client - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) focus)

"I really enjoyed my therapy with Paulina and it has helped me to recover from health anxiety. I’ve had 2 CBT treatments before, but I didn’t find them that useful in comparison. I have learned a lot of new strategies and got helpful therapy resources. Paulina showed interest in me and my problems, she was very thorough, thoughtful, empathetic and very skilful. Thank you very much!"
