Petra gave me space to breathe and tools to manage my anxiety. I always felt my worries were well accepted, and it made a huge difference knowing I was heard. I had always worried being gay was going to hurt the people around me, now I'm free to be who I am.

PTSD Client

I finally felt safe to open up and be honest about my struggles. The warmth and understanding I received helped me reconnect with myself in ways I never thought possible. Petra unlocked parts of me I'd kept hidden and I feel more free and relaxed in my day to day life.

I found it really hard to speak to my friends about my struggles with eating, Petra gave me all the tools I needed to get back into healthy routines. Understanding my body better gave me the confidence to build myself up. Thank you for everything Petra.

How do I know if therapy is right for me?
