I have known Mhairi for over 20 years and have spoken to her about many issues regarding life changes, decisions and difficulties, and have found she offers an empathetic space for me to talk and find constructive and positive solutions.
I had a counselling session with Mhairi who I met in Hong Kong, She is warm and welcoming, which makes me feel comfortable always. She listened to my concerns without judgment and asked thoughtful questions that helped me reflect on my feelings.It was very helpful, providing me with practical strategies to cope with my challenges. I left feeling supported and more equipped to handle my issues. I highly recommend this counselling service to anyone looking for guidance and a safe space to talk.
Reena has been a wonderful supervisor throughout my journey as an intern at Insightful. My supervision sessions with her were very insightful into who I am as a counsellor, and what I need to work on. She has also been very patient with my questions and offered guidance whenever I feel stuck. It has been a very enriching experience with her.
I spoke to Mhairi about my menopause journey and how it affected my home and work life. I felt incredibly safe, understood and supported my Mhairi. I’ve learned so much about myself and how to develop healthy strategies for myself moving forward. Thank you so much Mhairi!
As a trainee counsellor, my learning experience with Ms. Reena has been enriching. She posed insightful questions that grounded my reflections and offered valuable alternative perspectives. Her suggestions were both practical and actionable, providing clear guidance for my work with clients. She also challenged my limiting beliefs, encouraging personal and professional growth. Throughout our sessions, she demonstrated nurturing patience and a thoughtful, supportive approach.
Reena is a really good supervisor. She was able to have me reflect in a more targeted fashion regarding the choices I've made, and therapeutic approaches I've used. Moreover, she has also challenged my views in a manner that is neither directive nor assertive like others. A sterling review from me, and I definitely recommend her to those looking for a clinical supervisor.
Shi Qing is the appointed counselor for me (Yash). I've worked with a few therapist before but she was one that I completely aligned with. She's a very knowledgeable person because she knows what she's talking about. She listens very patiently to my problems. Not only that she helped me learned a lot about myself and how to process the emotions I'm going through. I usually feel anxious to meet any new therapist before any session but during the first session itself she made me feel at ease. I never felt like I was judged. I've always felt validated and when I'm done with the therapy session I've always felt better and had an insight of what I could do better for myself in any given situation. Throughout these session I felt growth and I definitely could have never survived my tough times without her guidance and session. As a psychology student I learned more about counseling and other forms of therapy and practices with her. Overall she's one of a kind and definitely someone amazing to work with. I would recommend her to anyone and it was my pleasure to work with her as long as I have.- Yash

I am highly recomeded Manali Pattnaik and this is my honest feedback:We been contacting since Nov 2023. It was really great experience and I appreciate her effort helping me to overcome my anxiety. My anxiety becoming less and less from scale of 8 now to scale of 2. It was so amazing. I can drive and go out become myself even not 100%. The best part is, I could share the knowledge from her to my friends and who need it. I have no words to say and thanks to Insightful Counselling for this program. Thank you Manali Pattnaik for your advise and your skill. Also you never gave up on me to tell me its just my shadow 🙂
I have had the privilege of doing my sessions with my therapist Manali. She was very attentive to my sharing, catching the nuances that shaped the way I think. Her perceptive observations and suggestions are what I needed to make sense of my deep inner workings. I went to her to overcome certain obstructions in personal growth and decision making, and I would say in the handful of sessions I've had, I could gain a significant clarity on who I am and what the underlying issues are. Manali is a guiding light of a honest and purposeful heart and I would recommend anyone who is looking for a therapist to give her a try.
It was very good experience with Manali I had very great time with her
I am incredibly grateful for the invaluable supervision I received from Reena during my time as a counseling student. Reena's profound knowledge and expertise in counseling were evident in every session. She is approachable, patient, and highly encouraging. Reena fostered a supportive environment where I felt at ease discussing challenging cases and seeking guidance on complex issues.
Reena is a patient and understanding therapist who is able to distill the nuances of what I'm feeling based on what I tell her. She is encouraging yet knows when to be tough on asking challenging questions to try to get to the root of the issue and making me face hard truths.She tries her best to accommodate to her clients' needs, and make it as collaborative a process as possible. The sessions are such that it is tailored to the client's pace and level of comfort.
I had my sessions with Adrian when I first had trouble with myself and my relationship. He made me understand myself better and really opened up my eyes to ways I could make things better for myself. He was always patient and spoke in such a soft tone which made our sessions feel so calm. I highly recommend giving Insightful Counselling a shot if you're looking for help.
