Testimonials
“Diana is non-judgemental, patient and a great listener. She has been a great sounding board and will ask thoughtful questions to make me think deeper into why I did the things. She has drawn information out of me that I didn’t realise all my life, and provides the resources to help me in the process. Many takeaways from our sessions! I am really thankful for the connection.”

“Always known that I had childhood demons to deal with but talk therapy alone didn't help me much. Found out about EMDR and felt it was something I could explore and was referred to Diana.
EMDR unravelled suppressed stuff that I thought I was already at peace with all these years... violent father, sexual abuse, the fatigue of holding the forte for my family and my inability to process grief.
I was spent and lost after the death of my mom and stepdad. With Diana' s gentle yet firm guidance, I have finally begun to live my life at age 45+ and I can't wait to embrace what's ahead.”

“One year ago, we sought couples counselling to save our marriage. We had been married for 7 years, with 2 young children. We had 3 modes of communication - mundane logistics for he kids, fiery arguments or cold war. We lived as housemates and co-parents, emotionally and physically distant. We each thought of giving up and dreamed of a less contentious life - perhaps it would be better to do life alone?
Counselling opened up our eyes and hearts. Our counsellor Diana, provided us with a space space to share our deepest feelings. She asked probing questions, firm yet gentle, and helped us to process long-suppressed resentment, bitterness and unforgiveness. She helped us to understand that not all issues between a couple can be resolved and they may recur throughout the life of our marriage. She gave us tools to communicate better, teaching us to turn towards each other in times of conflict.
We have been attending sessions for about a year and our lives have changed so much. We still have our disagreements but we talk bout them in a loving and collaborative way. We now understand that we are a team and our spouse is not our enemy. The once tense environment at home has been transformed and we look forward to spending time with each other. A strong marriage is the foundation of a strong family and well-adjusted children. We thank God for leading us to the right counsellor and we would encourage other couples to seek help early. Don’t give up on each other. Thank you for changing our lives! “

“We have been having regular sessions with Diana over the past 7 months and she has been instrumental in helping us repair our marriage. Though we started out with some deep seated issues, Diana was very patient with us and imparted extremely valuable skills that has helped us improve our relationship by leaps and bounds! We now understand the “wrong” dance that we’ve been doing all this while, and how we should be turning to each other instead of away. Thanks Diana! “

“I went for counselling because I was unable to have a normal relationship with my Mother for a long time, having been subjected to physical and emotional abuse when I was young. Growing up in that home I felt suffocated and couldn’t be myself so I had to move out and live on my own at 19 years old and I moved back only 1 week before I got married. After I had my son, I felt I had to seek help because I constantly felt like I am not doing enough, not doing a good job and will scar my son for life. Being a mother terrified me because I did not have a good role model.”
