Flourish Psychological Services - Client Testimonials

Thousands of people have benefited from visits to this clinic. Here’s what some of our many satisfied clients have to say:

Alice* was pregnant with her second child, was feeling depressed and unable to move on from a traumatic event in her past. Family relationships were also challenging for her.

“I know myself to be very stubborn and initially I believe this worked against me as I was reluctant to be open to you and the many valuable ideas you had. When I decided to give in a little I realised that what I needed was exactly what I had been unwilling to accept. I appreciate greatly that you didn’t get in on my games and helped me to see that being a survivor is better than being the victim forever. Thanks.”   A. P.  (Teacher)

Joan* is a mother of four and was experiencing depression, anxiety and a lack of interest in life which was impacting on her functioning, and that of her family.

“What I learnt through your insight, guidance and direction has enabled me to move ahead in my life. I always admire your skill as you led the group sessions. Helping us through our individual concerns with compassion, firmness and a touch of humour. You worked hard, we worked hard and it paid off. The impact on my life is ongoing”   J.G.(Administrator)

Geoff* has recently had his first date at age 30 +.

"I was referred to Flourish Psychological Services by my family doctor after going through a rough patch at my place of employment. My doctor believed that Janét would be able to help me with some of the issues that I needed to discuss."

"This was the first time in my life that I had seen a psychologist, so I was a little nervous and apprehensive. My fears quickly disappeared due to the calming and relaxed nature of the practice, plus her personal and soothing manner. She allowed me to express openly the issues and problems that I had, and arranged a program to deal with all of the those issues. Over the following weeks we both worked together to discuss the issues that I raised with her. As well as the extensive one on one meeting, I also did work outside of the sessions, reinforcing the issues that we had discussed. After attending sessions with Janét over the past couple of months, I can feel within myself the change that has come over me. I am now more confident, and have the knowledge and skills to manage and control my own life. With Janét’s assistance, I have set goals in various areas, and am currently working my way through them. Both my family and work mates have commented on the change in my behaviour and attitudes since I started seeing Janét. I would wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone who is thinking of seeing a psychologist.”   G. B. (Publishing)
