Client Testimonials

What others say

Henk’s approach to therapy is superb.  He was able to give me the space to come to terms and unpack a lot of trauma in a safe and comfortable environment.  His dedication to empathising with a client is second to none. I felt seen and heard when I discussed difficult experiences with him. I would recommend him to anyone seeking therapy.

  

Ms. S.

I found this process incredibly comfortable and rewarding.  This surprised me, given the constraints of Zoom but this space, combined with the flexibility of online sessions was brilliant.  I feel less burdened, more resilient, and much more myself; I am kinder to myself, understand myself, and have the tools to work with the changes coming my way.

  

Mr. N.

I came to Henk to talk issues including LGBTQ+ identity, spirituality/religion and self-confidence.  Henk gave me time to talk and knows when to repeat a sentence or ask a question to help guide your train of thought. He also brings a light-hearted and humorous approach to the session in a tactful and tasteful way which helped me to relax and be myself in the sessions.

  

Mx. C.

The most important thing about counselling is the relationship with the therapist.  Henk was able to foster an atmosphere of trust and connection – almost like talking with a friend.  The sessions were tough at times, but we could also laugh. I always walked out feeling better than I walked in.  Henk helped me see the wood for the trees and I am grateful to him for that.

  

Mr. A.

I cannot describe in words how much Henk helped me with my issues and concerns.  I have been very insecure, with zero confidence, and full of inner conflicts.  After all my sessions I am myself - a confident, strong woman.  

  

Mrs. I.

We thank Henk for all his support and guidance throughout our sessions.  We felt at ease discussing our issues, never felt like he judged us.  The sessions were very helpful and have put us in a better position going forward.  We are putting his advice into practice each day and it's helping our relationship.  We are thankful for his time, help, patience and support.

Mr. & Mrs. L

I feel incredibly fortunate to have found the right counsellor at the right time. I feel that I have been sensitively guided and challenged to look at, and let go of, layers of conditioning that have prevented me from stepping into my power. I barely recognise the woman who entered her first session, but I have so much love and compassion for her. Thank you Henk!.

  

Ms. L.

I saw Henk for my anger issues and overwhelming perception of my business and personal responsibilities. I was soon better able to deal with my problems, avoid overreacting, and able to make an important life decision – allowing me to feel positive about my future and confident in coping with life’s invariable changes.

  

Mr. M.

​

Henk is a very empathic counsellor who provides a safe space to explore deep emotions. His tools for improving communication and behaviour are practical and inspire real change.

Mr. J. & Mr M.

​

Henk replied to my voice message in no time.  He provided a safe space with no judgement.  I was in a mess and didn’t know what to do with myself or who I was.  After getting everything off my chest, he helped me put the pieces together and for that I am so grateful to him.  I recommend Henk for anyone who finds themselves in a very dark and horrible place, or struggling to find who they are.

  

Mr. S.

Having found myself at a very low ebb emotionally and mentally, Henk has been brilliant all the way through the process and has helped me to get back to feeling my true self.  He was exactly what I was looking for in a councillor and has helped me move my well-being forward with empathy, professionalism and warmth.

  

Mr. P.

​

After 40+ years of marriage we reached an impasse, struggling to understand each other.  Family circumstances and retirement brought new challenges, and we were stuck in a rut.  Henk helped us to crystallise the issues, and equipped us with new strategies.  We are deeply grateful for his expertise and encouragement.  He has our undeserved recommendation.

  

Mr. & Mrs O.

I was very wary of having counselling, never having done it before.  I was at a very low ebb but even after the first session I could feel the benefits.  Henk helped me see my issues from a new/different perspective and turn things around.  I feel much more confident and positive and I’m sure my new coping strategies will help me stay that way.

  

Mrs. J.

Henk provided a safe space for me to talk through some of the hardest elements of my life to date. Through my sessions with Henk, I’ve been able to come to terms with who I am as a person and, dare I say it, like myself for the first time in my life. This has given me a newfound strength and zest for life.

​  

Mr. R.

​

Having lost my daughter a few months previously, I felt I would benefit from some professional help in dealing with various aspects of grief.   Our sessions gave me cause to consider myself, my reactions and my feelings in a different way.  Henk was gentle in his questioning, but searching, and always constructive.  He encouraged me to question my perceptions of myself, and consider traits I had seen as negative, in a positive light.
