"Thank you for all you did for me"

About: Adult mental health / Talking Therapies Walsall

(as the patient),

I was sexually assaulted back in March 2024. I started my treatment with Halima a few months later. The journey has been a bit of a roller coaster. Halima not only was very patient with me as I don't find talking about things very easily I get frustrated as I have ADHD also. But she was kind and understood me and took it all at my own pace so there was no rush. Even when it came to discharging me. The week i was meant to i had had a bad week so we extended this for a few more weeks. Made me feel heard and gave me some really good tools to be able to cope on my own when discharged.

I honestly can not thank her enough for all she has done. Halima, you are amazing and I will definitely be keeping in touch. We have had laughter and tears a long the way and now my friday mornings wont be that same. Thank you for all you did for me

Hello stardm87,

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and reflections. Your openness and strength in the face of such a difficult journey is deeply moving.

It’s wonderful to know that had a positive experience and you now feel equipped with tools to cope.

Thank you again for your kind words and for allowing us to be part of your healing journey.

I have passed this on to the service manager who can pass your kind words on to Halima.

Kind regards,

James Lowe
