I gained a lot from working with Alison. Despite my initial keen-ness to work with her, I then struggled with letting go in the early sessions and was probably more than challenging as a client. Despite these avoidance tactics, Alison was very patient and firmly but politely persistent. I am not quite sure when the breakthrough happened, but it did. It has been quite confronting dealing with some of the issues that surfaced – and resurfaced – but Alison always made the environment feel safe. There have been a lot of tears, some laughter and now a huge amount of things to think about. The whole process has stayed with me and I have valued it enormously. I feel much more vulnerable now but much less numb – which is an enormous step forward for me. Thank you, sincerely, Alison – and best of luck with it all! Jx
