"Right from the start I connected with them"

About: Inclusion Thurrock (Talking Therapies)

(as the patient),

I reached out to Inclusions after suffering for a long time with anxiety and generally feeling very bad about life in general and about myself especially. My depression was up and down and it was really impacting my life. I was assigned a CBD therapist called Kevin and right from the start I connected with him.

Kevin helped me to understand how to weigh up the evidence for my thoughts and to assess reality from fiction. Kevin also encouraged me to follow plans instead of the moods, which I have to say, was paramount in me being able to make progress. I cannot possibly thank Kevin enough. He has helped me in more ways than he can know and I'm going to continue to use the tools he's given me going forward. Eternally thankful for this service. I shall continue to 'take each thought to court' ☺️

Dear RichH,

Thank you for taking the time to share about your experience with Inclusion Thurrock talking therapies.

I am pleased to read that you find the experience beneficial. It is encouraging to hear how much of a positive impact Kevin, your CBT therapist, had on your journey.

Your words beautifully capture the essence of what we strive for—supporting individuals in building tools that empower lasting change. It is wonderful to hear that the approach of “following plans instead of moods” and “taking each thought to court” resonated with you. These are powerful strategies, and your commitment to continuing to use them is inspiring.

I will make sure your kind words are passed onto your therapist, Kevin, as I am sure he will be touched to know how much his support has helped you.

Wishing you all the best on your continued journey.

Kind regards,

Ann
