What People Say....

Trainees

I’m really enjoying my time with balance of the mind. I’ve been allocated a good selection of clients. I feel that I’m getting some really good experience of using the CBT techniques, and the team are very supportive.

Balance of the Mind has been such a great placement as it has been so straightforward, and I’ve been able to easily fit my client work around my full-time job. I have found them to be supportive [expand title="Show More"] around setting up sessions with clients and always available to discuss any concerns I might have. I am so grateful to Balance of the Mind for providing me with a fantastic placement that has given me exposure to interesting and diverse clinical work.[/expand]

I found the process of finding a placement to be quite daunting however Balance of the Mind simplified things for me and I was able to start with them quite swiftly. The service [expand title="Show More"] offers remote appointments which makes counselling accessible for those who may not be able to attend in person. The manager ‘Zach’ makes contact with the counsellor and has a discussion around the clients needs. I have found Zach to be very supportive and he makes himself available to discuss any concerns that a trainee counsellor might have..[/expand]

It has been the perfect compliment to my professional development within the NHS. Working with balance of the mind has provided me with experience with variety of age groups [expand title="Show More"] and demographics. I have been well supported since joining their team in 2020, and excited to continue to grow with them. Without working with them, I don’t believe that I would feel as confident and competent as I do today..[/expand]

Professionals

I still feel honoured to be able to support people to make a difference to their lives. I started working with Balance of the Mind, as I felt it would be a way of gaining extra work and income. I also liked the idea of working with others as being self-employed can feel quite isolating at times. The process of registering was straightforward and since working with them I have always felt that there’s support on hand should I need it. I have thoroughly enjoyed my work to date and would highly recommend the service to any counsellor – irrespective of what stage of their career they may be in.

Working with balance of the mind since 2020. The team have been an inspiration to change my career from retail management to counselling. They provide reliable training and support with all I needed to become a professional counsellor. Good communication and i have learned a lot from their mentoring efforts and appreciate the extra time and energy they invest in my growth.

I started as a trainee therapist with a balance of the mind in 2019. I have progressed into a confident successful therapist and thoroughly enjoy every aspect of my job as well as having the support from my counselling supervisors at Balance of the mind who guide me through every step of my journey as a counsellor.

I am grateful and honoured to be able to contribute to the development of my clients helping them to overcome their mental health challenges. I now have a portfolio of over 70 clients which include married couples, adults and young people. I have had ongoing support from Balance of the Mind who have provided the resources and tools to enable me to assess and measure progress in myself and my clients. Thank you, for giving me such a rewarding opportunity.

Balance of the mind gave me a fantastic opportunity in working for and with them not just with clients but with external projects as well, a place where over the past few years I have been able to learn and grow as a therapist.

I appreciate that Balance of the Mind supported my first steps as a newly trained counsellor and gave me opportunity to practice my skills. I found working with them easy, understanding and supportive. I am grateful for the opportunity that I was given. I have grown and have been able to branch out In many different paths and now run a successful holistic and coaching company.
