"I’d always been the sort of person who just carried on  the thought that I might need help didn’t occur to me until after a few health and family issues it was clear I did need to talk to someone. Nights of waking up and just laying there worrying about everyone and everything took their toll... even my family tried to convince me to get help. It was a good friend that put me in touch with Karen and thank goodness she did. Karen sat patiently listening to me, I told her how I felt like a sponge soaking up everyone’s problems, then dwelling on them in the early hours. Karen explained what was happening and how my brain was functioning, to put it simply once my sleep pattern improved my ‘stress bucket’ would start to empty! After only a couple of visits to Karen and listening nightly to my bedtime trance I noticed a big improvement, I had more energy, I didn’t get that awful anxious tummy feeling, I felt lighter! Karen has helped me immensely, I feel more confident and more comfortable in myself, the old and improved me has returned."
