Talking to Sarah once a week.

"Talking to Sarah once a week."

About: Inclusion Thurrock (Talking Therapies)

(as a service user),

I am not very good at describing and sharing my experiences. All I can say is that I was very sceptical whether CBT was for me. It turned out that I was paired up with Sarah, my therapist, who was very kind and most of all extremely patient with me. She allowed me to take things at my own pace without pushing me to do something I didn't feel comfortable with. Her suggestions and guidance were invaluable and with time I started looking forward to our conversations. I know that my wellbeing will always be work in progress as a lot depends on me and how I use all the tools Sarah gave me. I would highly recommend Inclusion to anyone struggling with their mental health.

I would also like to deeply apologise for writing my experiences so late.

Kind regards

Hi Anna-Maria,

Thank you so much for providing such amazing feedback regarding your experience with Inclusion Thurrock!

It is very normal to feel sceptical at first to try one of the treatments however, I am so glad to hear that CBT was beneficial to you and provided you with tools and techniques to use in the future.

It is also amazing to hear that you felt comfortable with your therapist Sarah and that she was kind and patient with you as this is entirely important in therapy. I am so pleased to hear that you was able to build a good therapeutic relationship with Sarah. It sounds like you have put in a lot of work to get to where you are now, you should be very proud of yourself! I will pass this feedback on to your therapist Sarah as I'm sure she will really appreciate this.

We wish you the best of luck in the future utilising what you have learned in therapy.

We hope that others reading your feedback will feel encouraged to reach out for support if they need to.

Thank you again!

Best wishes,

Olivia
