Time2Reflect Counselling Practice

"My sessions with Stephanie Allen have allowed me to explore and uncover self worth after a childhood littered with trauma. It’s given me the self belief and confidence to grow into a narcissists worst nightmare, and then Stephanie helped me through a breakup with a narcissist and the infidelity from it and also the realisation that I became too strong to be controlled by a narcissist ever again. I’m now studying a levels, living on my own in a new town, making friends, going out, taking care of my two dogs and I’m absolutely smashing it. I even have the confidence to wear sleeveless outfits on a day to day basis even if I’m just going to the shops, that in itself is a miracle. Counselling with Stephanie Allen provides the tools to not be dependent on her but to be completely self sufficient, each session gives me new ideas and new focuses to do myself and improve my life. I simply cannot recommend Stephanie enough. She genuinely cares and is the only counsellor I’ve ever had that I listen to and value her insight because you can just tell it’s not just being recited from a textbook. Miracle worker!"

"Stephanie Allen is the most supportive and empathetic person I have ever met. Initially I was sceptical at the idea of therapy but with Steph's professional and compassionate approach, therapy very quickly became one of the best decisions I have ever made. After working with Steph over the last 6 months I now consider myself a survivor of a mentally, emotionally abusive and toxic narcissistic relationship, whereas before I met Steph, I was a victim of it. The hours I have spent working with Steph have been the most valuable of my life. Steph was very trusting and patient and equipped me with the skills I needed to help me through the emotional rollercoaster I was on. Steph helped me understand what was going on in my life and has enabled me to look at things clearly and see how toxic things within my relationship really were. Steph has helped me to regain control of my life (rather than have it controlled within the relationship), she has helped me to reconnect with myself and gain self confidence and the strength to walk away from the toxic relationship I was in. I couldn't recommend Steph enough for anyone suffering in a toxic narcissistic relationship, anyone suffering from any form of anxiety and anyone with zero self worth or confidence. Thanks to Steph I have regained my self confidence and the self worth I had completely lost while I was blinded by the lies, manipulation and control of a narcissist. I will never be able to thank Steph enough! "

"I'm so glad I came to Steph for counselling, she has been wonderful in teaching me different strategies and helping me understand myself better. Thanks to her I'm now my true authentic self, thank you so much Steph ❤"
