TESTIMONIALS
Client Stories
Discover how Echidna Counselling Chelmsford has positively impacted the lives of individuals navigating through life's difficulties.
Client, 2025
"After the death, I felt completely lost. Counselling helped me make sense of the grief and begin to find a place for it in my life. The pain is still there, but I feel more steady now — and able to look ahead with hope."
Client, 2021-24
"Megan supported me through the trauma of IVF and the decision to stop. Her steady presence helped me process the grief and begin to make peace with a different future. Our work helped me reconnect with who I am beyond motherhood, and find acceptance in a life I hadn’t planned for."
Client, 2025
Grant was amazing. I honestly don't even remember how I was when I first started therapy, without his help I would probably still be in a negative stage in my life. I've been able to turn negative situations into positives and help better myself.
