"Space to breath!"

About: Community Partnerships Service

(as a service user),

2020 was the culmination of the worse period in my life!

I thought things couldn't get worse and then I broke my ankle.

Me: Surely the universe has thrown enough pain my way

Universe: Nah, let's take her beloved dad away, before she gets to see him!

I was at my worse and didn't know where to get help, then came Georgia.

She helped me more than she knows.

I was in such a dark place, constant tears, no way out in sight.

Georgia gave me time to breath, talk and come to terms with all life had put in my way.

She encouraged me to set small goals and didn't judge me if j didn't complete them.

I'm actually really tearful as I write, as it takes me back to where I was when we started.

I'm in such a better place, but I won't lie, Georgia was an anchor for me and I'm scared that without her I'll just drift away.

But, we've discussed this and I know I won't.

When I was splashing about, not knowing how to break out of how I felt, Georgia listened. She was patient when I went off on tangents, gently drawing me back.

Thank you Georgia, for all your help. You have been a blessing in my life and I'm sure that you will continue your fab work, helping those of us that need it.

Thank you

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, it is such an encouraging read. I am pleased that Georgia, along with your commitment to therapy, have helped to improve your well-being and allow you to reach a better place. It can be a challenging and scary experience to finish therapy, but the skills which you have learnt during the sessions, along with your motivation, will support you to continue living a fulfilling life. We wish you all the best for the future.
