FEEDBACK FROM OUR CLIENTS

Excellent counselling sessions; very pleased with counsellor’s help. Am much better able to manage feelings and communicate with each other (and stop living in continuous fear and anxiety.

There is more clarity and I know what I need to work on and improve in myself.

It was very useful as it allowed both of us to listen to each other and share our feelings and how we need to move forward in our marriage.

I would never be able to afford counselling if I had not found SANGAM. Thank you

We discussed how I needed to take small steps but also to challenge myself. I have now arranged to start volunteering which I probably would not have done without the counselling
