I have had the pleasure of being a client of Linda Thai for nearly 6 months now. The experience has been both comforting and enlightening. She exudes professionalism and warmth, and her depth of knowledge and empathy are truly remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend her services, particularly for individuals engaging in trauma work and who identify as neurodivergent. Beyond actively listening to and understanding your unique needs, Linda is adept at thinking creatively to uncover solutions or paths to resolution alongside you. Collaborating with Linda has diminished my sense of isolation on this journey, allowing me to share my narrative and reframe my life through a more optimistic lens. In my opinion, she ranks among the finest psychotherapists I have had the privilege of working with!
Judy is a truly remarkable counselor. I have had the pleasure of observing her sessions, and her interaction with clients is truly remarkable. She approaches her work in a manner that encourages clients to be their true selves without any apprehension of criticism. I wholeheartedly endorse Judy to anyone in search of visibility, to feel understood, and to discover ways to implement constructive transformations in their lives.
I was introduced to Judy through a close friend of mine who is a client of hers. After learning about her background and training in couples therapy and sex therapy, I would absolutely recommend her and her team to potential clients. Judy has a holistic and inclusive approach that, combined with her gentle and comforting demeanor, creates a safe and supportive environment for clients.
I just had to pen down this testimonial for me therapist, Ms. Wenyu Yang—something I ain't accustomed to doing, really. She's a right gem, she is, all warm and caring, and she really listens, you know? She's shown me the beauty in being open and honest about me feelings, and she's helped me realize that it's okay to be angry when it's justified. With her wise counsel, I've learned to advocate for meself and face me challenging past with a hopeful heart. Cheers to you, Ms. Yang!
I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of this team! I've been seeing Linda for many years now, and I must say, she's been absolutely fantastic. Her assistance isn't just beneficial in the short term; I've experienced significant long-term success as well. Thank you, Linda!!
I made the decision to prioritize my mental well-being around a year ago and serendipitously discovered Your Story Counselling. Initially, I harbored doubts about the efficacy of therapy, but I can confidently affirm that engaging in therapy at Your Story Counselling has been incredibly beneficial! I have been a client of Alana Sham for approximately a year; she is exceedingly empathetic, adept at addressing the mental hurdles I face, and equips me with the tools to navigate daily personal mental health challenges. Transitioning from individual counseling to couples therapy has been transformative, as it has not only enlightened my partner and me on fostering a thriving relationship but also profoundly impacted us in a positive way. I am immensely grateful for this experience!
Fabulous caring individuals have been assisting me and my family. Remote counseling for both families and individuals perfectly suits the needs and schedule of my family.
I wholeheartedly recommend collaborating with Judy. I have had the opportunity to seek guidance from her, and I must say she is truly magnanimous and empathetic. She possesses a deep understanding of psychotherapeutic theories and techniques, along with a keen awareness of how systemic oppression affects our overall well-being. Judy is a versatile professional with a wealth of life experience, and in her presence, I feel secure and understood.
I've healed a great deal, and the experience has been incredibly comforting and secure.
I've been attending therapy sessions since 2023, and I must say, collaborating with the Intern Therapists at Your Story Counselling has been an absolute pleasure. Their support has truly made a significant difference in my life.
I 'ave bin seein' Alia Ziesman for Therapy fer about a month now, and I must say, I feel blessed to 'ave chosen 'er as me therapist. It may 'ave only been a month, but I've already noticed a significant improvement in me Anxiety. She truly understands the emotional struggles that us Immigrants face. It ain't easy bein' open about yer insecurities and past traumas, but with Alia, it just comes natural. There's somethin' powerful 'bout bein' truly listened to and lettin' go of all them negative thoughts and self-doubts. While I give meself credit for puttin' in the work, I know I wouldn't 'ave made as much progress without Alia's guidance. I could keep talkin' about 'er for ages because she 'elped me find that sense of calm I've been searchin' for for years. It's a journey, a long one at that, and I'm committed to keep growin' and healin' from me past traumas.
Thank you to Yours counselling services for providin' us with this opportunity to start healin' ourselves.
A few weeks back, I began my counseling journey with a therapist here. The initial consultation and intake all went smoothly, and during the intake, the therapist even walked me through some box breathing exercises. However, when it came to my first actual session, things didn't go as planned. Despite having shared my traumas just a week prior during the intake, my therapist seemed to have forgotten about them. Instead, we ended up spending around 15 minutes on box breathing once again without delving into anything deep or serious.
I found myself taking the lead during the session, which was unexpected since I had never been to therapy before and was hoping for more guidance. It felt rushed, especially because the therapist was about to head off on vacation that same day. It seemed like she was just trying to wrap up the session quickly so she could leave. Right as I was starting to open up about a traumatic experience, she mentioned needing to take a bathroom break and cut the session short, offering a few extra minutes in the next one as compensation. However, since I didn't feel like I gained much from that session, I didn't see the point in rebooking.
Despite her kindness, I couldn't shake the feeling that she wasn't fully invested in exploring my issues further, resulting in our sessions feeling quite superficial. Additionally, the environment she created didn't feel conducive to opening up comfortably. Although I don't believe she is a bad person, I felt that my time and money weren't utilized effectively. I was still charged the full $160, even though she arrived late and left early.
It's been a while since I saw her, and I haven't been contacted regarding the missed time or her return from vacation, which makes me suspect that she might be aware of the shortcomings in our sessions and has chosen not to reach out. I'm now working with a new therapist who, in a shorter time frame, has already helped me make progress in overcoming my barriers.
I prefer not to disclose her name. I'm sharing this to advise new clients to thoroughly assess their therapist before committing to further sessions and costs.
Your Story Counselling is just marvelous, a cozy and secure haven for all those facing challenges. Judy brings a soothing aura of safety and direction to her clients and team. Working with Judy and Your Story Counselling has truly been enriching and fulfilling.
I've been seeing Linda Thai for a few months now, and she's the best counselor I've encountered. I've had a few counselors in the past, and she truly stands out. With her guidance, I've made significant strides and I'm hopeful for a future where I rely on her less, haha.
I've been seeing Christina for therapy for nearly a year now, and it's been quite the new adventure for me as I hadn't stuck with it regularly before. However, I must say it has been a splendid experience. It's easy to open up and have a chat during our sessions, sometimes delving into general life topics. Christina is empathetic and incredibly perceptive. The therapy style is entirely tailored to my needs, and she has been exceptionally flexible, especially when I've had to change session times at the last minute. It's been a fantastic journey, and I definitely plan on continuing. 🌟
