Kate is a great listener, and she is really good at steering the conversation to help you talk about your issues and to reflect on underlying thoughts and feelings. She helped me discover, understand, and work on low self esteem, and it has been a great journey with visible progress, and I am thankful to Kate for that!

A really great service for a lower budget. I had the pleasure of Dawn as my counsellor. It was amazing to recieve the support and listening ear I needed from such a qualified and caring person. Through forming a long term bond immense trust was built and self development flourished as a result. I received counselling for over a year, and leave these sessions with a great sense of self and empowerment. I would recommend this service to anyone!

Dawn is a brilliant counsellor. Wish her all the best. PGDC is a brilliant service. Recommend it

I felt that I could speak freely without fear of being judged. My counsellor was attentive, she listened, and helped to give me clarity on the things that were troubling me.
The experience was a good one because I work from home and could manage my sessions around work. I would definitely recommend.

I feel that I was able to work with a great counselor Dawn. She was very helpful in helping me to work through my issues. I really enjoyed working with her she provided a relaxed and safe space to talk things out. It was also refreshing to work with someone in this capacity whom you felt understood the different issues faced.

Absolutely brilliant and really helped me.
I would definitely recommend Kate to people.

This company has changed my life. They have a team of exceptionally gifted therapists that specialise in a wide range of therapies and age ranges. Both myself and my younger sibling have used different therapists at this company and both of our lives have been completely transformed. They are exceptionally professional and they really know what they are doing. I recommend them to anyone who wants to improve their lives.

The Personal Growth and Development Centre really helped me to understand why certain problems I've been facing kept happening in my life and how to deal with them. I can't thank you enough. From feeling extremely down and anxious before the start of the sessions, I now feel much happier, excited, and hopeful. I've learnt a lot about myself, my patterns, why certain things don't work out in my life, and what to do about them. I also learnt how to better deal with my anxiety. I had counselling before which was okay and made me feel better at the moment but not long-term. But counselling with PGDC was completely different and I feel like I've learnt skills which could help me to deal with anxiety and other problems not just in the moment, but in the future as well. Thank you so much! Would definitely recommend.

Kate offered to help when no one else would. She paired me with Hailey who has changed my life.
Hailey created a space where I felt safe, validated and heard. She treated me like someone who mattered when the rest of the world and myself believed otherwise. We ‘clicked’ almost instantly. Hailey is compassionate and authentic. Her beautiful personality makes opening up easier. I cannot thank Hailey enough for believing in me and reminding me of my inner strength. I wouldn’t be here without her.

I signed up to this because my life was a mess and I really needed someone to talk to. I was in therapy for 12 weeks and I feel so different about myself, yay me LOOL! I'm so grateful to all of PGDC, especially Dawn. I would definitely recommend, I finally feel present in my own life

Kate was excellent. I had 10 sessions with her and she helped me identify patterns in my behaviour. I am now on the path of self discovery and even though it can be scary at times I am excited for what the future holds. I would be stuck in the same pattern/ cycle if I didn’t seek help from Kate.

I thank you so much x

My experience with Kate was amazing and there’s not enough characters on here to express it. Kate fully allowed for me to strip back the walls that I had built over the years and give closure to my inner child who was still reliving the traumas from years past. We explored me and what my perception of me was in order to build my self love, confidence, and self intimacy. As a result of this I am aware of who I am now but more importantly, I am free of the walls that I built over the years! I’ve had counselling before but not like this, I’m glad I chose her as she forced me to challenge myself through set homework’s and journaling.
Don’t think just book her and learn to live in your freedom, you owe it to yourself.

Kate was an amazing therapist. She made my first experience at therapy as comfortable as it could be. She allowed me to really learn about myself and the cause of some of the issues I discussed in therapy. She was extremely patient with me and honest. She taught me a lot about myself that I didn’t truly know or understand. She would often give me things to work on outside of the therapy sessions which I felt allowed me to continue to do the work even when she wasn’t present. I am so glad that I took the leap of faith to start therapy and it is definitely something that I would love to do it again in the near future and hopefully have Kate as a therapist again. I thank her for giving me the resources to learn about myself fully and start to do the internal work to feel better on the inside and on the outside.

When I started my sessions with Kate at PGDC I was 3 months into recovering from an episode with depression and anxiety. I was really struggling to find the joy again or to be positive in any way about life and all it has to offer. I also had a lot of work to do in terms of my self esteem and value, as well as managing my responses to some of the relationships in my life. Kate helped me a massive amount in terms of identifying my triggers and managing my responses, as well as coping mechanisms using CBT. We did a lot of work over the 3 month period and made very good progress. I made lots of notes too which I keep referring to from time to time when I need a boost or a reminder. I've also been reading Kate's book - Dump the Baggage, and I feel like I'm reading a book that was written just for me and the challenges I face, especially the chapter on Limiting Beliefs and Self Identity. It was a blessing to get to work with Kate and I'm very appreciative.

Kate has been very professional, timely and organized. As a therapist she helped me to become more self aware, more capable of understanding and dealing with my emotions.

One small thing that could be improved is attaching the zoom link to the calendar invite. This will make it easier for people to join as they don’t have to go and find the link in an email.

I have been working with Kate at PGDC for over a year now, and she has been instrumental in helping me navigate some extremely difficult times and junctures in my life. She has been extremely helpful in allowing me to understand many things about myself in order to improve my relationship with those around me. I am extremely grateful for everything I have learnt from Kate and would definitely recommend the PGDC.

The Personal Growth and Development Centre are excellent communicators and helped us deliver a fantastic event to support our community.
We highly recommend them and we fully intend to seek their help for future projects.

This was my first time with a therapist. Kate was amazing, flexible and Very comfortable to speak to. She really helped with opening up and getting to the root of a lot of issues within the relationship. Most of the sessions came with practical exercises and techniques to work through couples issues.

From my first meet with Kate, I knew this was the right connection for me therapy-wise. I felt properly listened to and at the same time I wasn’t spoon-fed. We worked through different aspects of my needs as a team and I found the recommended resources beneficial. Learning points from our sessions have stayed with me even months after and I find them coming to play when needed in daily life . I would definitely recommend their services.

Helped gather clarity on issues I had neglected or didn't understand before.

I still have work to do but I am glad I was able to start exploring areas of my life that seemed out of my control.

My therapist gave me space to be quiet and think through behaviours that I hadn't before.
