“Eternally Grateful”
The meditation and breathing techniques you taught me helped so much to manage my anxiety and have lowered my blood pressure.
All this and the fact that I am, for the first time in my life, happy and living without crippling anxiety and fear.I cannot thank you enough for your time, patience and knowledge and if there is anything I can do for you in the future, please do not hesitate to ask. I was serious when I said you have changed my life and I’m eternally grateful.

“Highly Recommended “
I am deeply grateful for the transformative experience I had through trauma-informed counselling. Raymond’s compassionate and supportive approach created a safe space for healing and self-discovery. The combination of mindfulness, guided reflection, and evidence-based techniques allowed me to process emotions in a way that felt empowering and restorative. Raymond’s deep understanding of trauma and his ability to create a sense of safety made a profound difference in my journey. This experience has given me valuable tools for resilience and personal growth, and I highly recommend him.
