What do clients say about our consultants?

"Catherine is thoughtful, invested, and fully empathetic"
Catherine is thoughtful, invested and fully empathetic when it comes to her client's needs. She was the only counselor who responded to a distressed call-for-help email with a kind and human reaction instead of a cold and robotic scheduling email. While that may sound like a small detail, it made a world of difference in a time of great distress. And it reflects her ongoing practice of caring for her clients in and out of sessions. She listens to what your values are and offers professional and thoughtful advice tailored to those values and your needs. She is flexible with couples and individuals alike, ensuring that your needs are being met in the moment and beyond, even if that means having an emergency, unscheduled session to assist you. I can vouch that her expertise touches on anxiety, depression, anger, abuse, couples, and career stress, all of which she considers together in ongoing treatment.

"Catherine...helped me look at the pros and cons of each option"
"Catherine was able to identify some really good career options for me to explore, and helped me look at the pros and cons of each option. 
Once I made a decision, Catherine was very supportive and assisted me get focused and complete my application.
I am now completing a Post Graduate Diploma in Primary Teaching with the University of Canterbury. I am looking forward to entering the teaching profession next year!"

'My son phoned me a short time after his session with you, and when I said he was sounding like his old self again, he replied… that’s because I have decided I am going to be a teacher Mum! Catherine was great.
Thank you Catherine, your wise council has got him facing forward again!  I cannot tell you how good that feels!'
Cheers, Robyn
 
 
"After an acrimonious redundancy process that left me devastated and jobless Catherine was able to help me deal with the emotional trauma and at the same time have me assess my skill set and retain confidence in myself that I was employable. She competently shepherded me through a whole process from job loss to successful re-employment. Having worked out my notice period I was back in full time work within two weeks."

"The counsellor was very understanding and she listened"
"I went to see a counsellor at Choice Life Consulting after my 27 year marriage ended abruptly and I was very depressed and confused. I found it extremely hard to cope day to day. The counsellor was very understanding and she listened. She gave me good advice and most of all some hope that my life would get better. My family said that I was much better for seeing her, I would recommend Choice Life Consulting to anyone who needed her help. She definitely helped me."

"This was my first experience of counselling so I really had no idea what to expect but I had heard you have to meet the right one. I did, first time, meant to be! Right from the start her compassion and intuition made me think I can really be me and not be judged or made to feel uncomfortable about what I was saying."

“I never met a beautiful soul who finally understood me.”
“In Maoridom for me, I will relate to you as a  Kaitiaki, meaning ‘guardian’. How I became to have you in my path was purely by spiritual contact a nudge an inner tiny voice directing me to you. Cass, you don’t realize the great healing you have in the pit of your soul and you were born to spread compassion. You have those who watch over you and mine in return and yet they all speak the same language to us who are willing to hear and feel.   In such a long time have I never met a beautiful soul who finally understood me who went within and helped me grow from our sessions.”

“Cassandra’s natural warmth and empathy enables her to establish client trust very quickly.”
“Cassandra’s natural warmth and empathy enables her to establish client trust very quickly and her core counselling skills (listening, reflecting, paraphrasing and summarising) are highly developed. Her questioning and facilitation skills reveal great perception, insight and self-awareness and empowers the client to reach a successful outcome. Cassandra has a great love people and is committed to helping others overcome adversity and positively move forward in their lives. She does so with compassion, hope and professionalism.”
