Client Feedback at the Conclusion of Counselling (Extract)
Anxiety Issues
“Taibeet Mind was very effective in addressing my anxiety issues as well as my concerns regarding work and career. The counsellor was empathetic, non-judgmental, and provided a very safe environment for me to share. Started counselling in August 2022 and I was mentally not in a great situation at that time. For the past year, I have learnt to view things in different perspectives, adopt a growth mindset, and gained the necessary skills to cope with my issues. I have seen a definite improvement in my attitude and resiliency now when facing challenges or setbacks. I have become a more positive person - a far cry from what I was a year ago. I am grateful to Taibeet Mind for the affordable and accessible counselling service. Thank you again Avis for the past year, for your listening ear and guidance. Reaching out to Taibeet Mind was one of the best decisions I have made and I will continue to apply what I learnt.”

Marital/Divorce Issues
“Counselling has helped us both immensely to work through issues we couldn’t on our own. It helped us confront issues and emotions we were sometimes avoiding. It enabled us to reflect on issues and gain a different perspective. We also found ourselves more ready to share our thoughts and feelings with each other.”

Psychological/Emotional Abuse Issues
“…I met Avis during the darkest times that I had experienced in my life. From the onset, she was able to create a safe space for me to open up and share my fears, anguish and inhibitions. While she heard me patiently, she didn’t let me wallow in my misery. She let me grieve and express my loss and pain but also showed me ways to cope and heal. After going through months of gut-wrenching agony, I was unable to identify anything positive or beautiful in my life condition. It was Avis who helped me shift my focus and acknowledge my achievements and blessings…Avis has been most instrumental in creating this new and better version of myself…”

Self-Confidence & Self-Esteem Issues
“Thank you Avis for helping me with my self-worth. I used to think very negatively about myself as I never understood my true worth. After speaking with Avis, I have stopped overthinking and have more confidence in myself. The resources that she gave me have been extremely useful, and are part of my everyday life now!”

Grief & Loss
“Avis has helped me so much to cope with my issues, from learning breathing techniques when I needed to calm down to understanding the different stages of grief when I lost my pet. A therapy session with her always felt like a brainstorming session & like as if I was talking to a friend who could relate to me, a person who would give pointers and advise me on things that might be helpful. At one point, life was extremely dreary but I always looked forward to my sessions with Avis. I learnt how to cope with my self-esteem issues & learning to accept everything while looking at things from another perspective. Thank you so much for being a guiding light!”

Anxiety Issues
"Avis is a great counsellor who goes beyond my expectations of a counsellor...She is also empathetic and non-judgmental, always encouraging me to speak my thoughts without pushing the narrative or concluding it carelessly. Also, she was able to structure a few long-term goals and kept track of them weekly. This allowed me to feel engaged and motivated with a direction in my life without feeling like recurring problems in my life are unsolvable. I am grateful to Avis for her help, and will gladly say that she has greatly improved my life."
