- “When I first discovered Vania I was in a very lost, negative and difficult place. Vania has revolutionised the way I see myself and my outlook towards life. Her help has enabled me to become an accepting and positive person, but also to know how to manage the more negative times - an invaluable skill I will never take for granted. Her support, kindness and generosity has encouraged changes that have been so welcoming and that are methods I can use now and going forward into the future...they truly have changed my life.” — Anonymous —
- “Thank you for your kind, honest, consistent, accepting, loving space you created between us. Thank you for helping me go to the darker corners within me and for never making me feel judged. You are a beautiful person and long may you continue to heal those who need it. Love and gratitude xx” — D.M. —
- “I have known and worked with many coaches, counsellors and therapists at the top of their game, both personally and professionally. Vania is an undiscovered gem, with a magical combination of knowledge, intelligence, empathy and humour. She has helped me more than anyone... Vania completely understood me from the get-go, and helped me begin to understand myself. Her way of joining the dots of what is going on for you, feels like being given the keys to the kingdom.” — C.E. —
- “She was so kind, logical, and caring in her approach to helping me. She was willing to talk about anything, making it clear that nothing was a ‘stupid’ or ‘meaningless’ thought, and she even offered her own experiences to help make me feel comfortable... Over our time together, Vania has provided me with techniques and information that I will always be able to use... My work with Vania really has changed my outlook on life, and I am eternally grateful to her for that, so thank you Vania; you’re truly very special.” — Laura M. —

- “Working with Vania has been an absolute pleasure and forever insightful. She is a fantastic individual who is humble, patient and genuinely caring who understood each problem I encountered throughout my 6 months of working in a non-judgmental way. This for me was extremely important given that I had already had a bad experience with another therapist who did not understand my problem and labelled me as 'depressed' without listening to me.” — Noorie Waheed —
- “I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Vania’s expertise. She truly is an amazing person to work with and I consider myself so lucky to have found her. She has such knowledge and sensitivity. She seems to have the ability to get to know who you are and is an expert at figuring out what would work best for you.” — A.H. —
- “Vania has since supported me on my journey to develop the self love and respect that my life was missing... Vania is non judgemental and caring in her approach and provided me with the expertise and guidance to work through various challenges... Overall you have helped me to come to a better place within myself – your service has been wonderful, personal, heartfelt, thought through – as have you. Thank you.” — Isabel M —
- “Vania has a lovely warm style, but is firm, she picks you up on things, and makes you question yourself, when appropriate, but always done in a nice way, coming from contribution and love. She helps you see the issues from a completely different perspective using tools that are simple to understand and comprehend.” — Anonymous —
- “Vania is wonderfully caring. She challenges and supports, and the tools she has to hand are incredibly valuable. You will find what works for you. But it’s not magic – you actually have to do the work.” — J.D.P. —
- “I have sought support from Vania a number of times over the past couple of years, and each time she has responded quickly and willingly. Without question, she has an ability to listen and hear beyond just what I’m saying. I have found our interactions to be incredibly helpful, and the time we’ve had together has been used wisely and purposefully. She has listened to me, questioned me, and given me bold support with what she’s seen, support that is wise and insightful and without a doubt, loving in intent. In return, I have always come away from any call with Vania feeling empowered, stronger and clearer in myself. I would happily recommend a conversation with Vania.” — T.C. —
- “Working with Vania is a very gentle and non judgemental process. Vania firmly guides you to find your own answers and question your thoughts. Vania creates a safe space for you to feel what you need to feel.” — X.A. —
- “In a mere 7 sessions, Vania has already enabled me go places that 4 years of psychotherapy did not touch. I feel held, supported and safe. Nothing is too deep or daunting to touch. She is a warm, sensitive, mindful, humourous, insightful woman. I relish my sessions as I know each week some form of transformation will take place. Our work together is invaluable.” — G.W. —
