My experience with Inclusion Thurrock NHS Talking Therapies has been incredibly positive and truly life-changing. From the very first session, I felt heard, understood, and supported in a way that made a real difference in my journey toward better mental well-being. My therapist was absolutely amazing—compassionate, patient, and highly skilled. She created a safe and non-judgmental space where I could openly discuss my thoughts and feelings without fear.

One of the most valuable aspects of my therapy journey was the range of therapeutic skills I learned. Throughout my sessions, I gained tools and techniques that have helped me better manage my emotions, navigate difficult situations, and develop a healthier mindset. I was introduced to strategies that have allowed me to reframe negative thoughts, reduce anxiety, and build resilience in ways I never thought possible. These skills are not just helpful for the short term, but they have given me a strong foundation to continue improving my mental health long after therapy has ended.

The structured and personalized approach of the therapy sessions made a significant impact on my progress. My therapist took the time to understand my individual struggles and tailored our discussions to best support my needs. She was always patient, encouraging, and willing to adapt her approach to ensure I was comfortable and getting the most out of each session. She empowered me to take control of my own mental health while providing the guidance and reassurance I needed along the way.

Beyond the therapeutic skills I developed, one of the most profound takeaways from my experience was the realization that I am not alone in my struggles. Therapy helped me feel validated and reassured that my feelings were understandable and that with the right support, things could improve. The compassionate and professional care I received made me feel valued and motivated to work toward a better version of myself.

I am incredibly grateful for the support I received from Inclusion Thurrock NHS Talking Therapies. It has been an eye-opening and transformative journey, and I cannot thank my therapist enough for her kindness, expertise, and dedication. I would highly recommend this service to anyone who is struggling and considering reaching out for help. The experience has given me tools that will benefit me for years to come, and I am confident that others who seek support through this service will find the same level of care and encouragement that I did.

Hi Amelia728492,

Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s truly inspiring to hear how therapy has made such a profound impact on your mental well-being. Feeling heard, supported, and understood is such an important part of the healing journey, and it’s wonderful that your therapist created a safe space where you could explore your thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment.

The skills and strategies you’ve developed will no doubt continue to support you long after therapy, and it’s amazing to hear that you now feel more in control of your mental health. Your message is a powerful reminder of the positive change that therapy can bring, and I’m sure it will encourage others to take that first step toward seeking support.

Wishing you continued strength and growth on your journey.

Take care,
