FEEDBACK FROM JUST A FEW OF THE CLIENTS THAT WE HAVE WORKED WITH
‘Fire's calm and caring personality along with her thoughtful conversations and suggestions, helped me deal with a recent incident that magnified the emotion of anger I'd normally encounter in challenging situations. Those suggestions allowed me to process the incident and deal with it in a way that relieved me of that anger and helped me improve other situations and relationships in my life. The environment in which Fire works with her clients is warm, comfortable and safe. I very much recommend Fire's practice. Thank you Fire.’

'I met Willem at one of the worst times in my life. His warmth and kind nature made it easy to open up. His use of methods, which at times appeared to me to be unconventional, helped to break my comfort zone, change my approach in the way I think and see events in my current and past life. All the while putting me at ease, when I so rarely feel so. With his compassion and empathetic approach, I’ve found the help and understanding I need to continue to move forward in life.'

'I have been working with Willem for over a year and he has guided me through two major events in my life. Willem is a kind human that is very perceptive and empathic, insightful and incredibly warm. He has guided me through explorations of my emotions as they are now and how they may relate to previous experiences. His guidance, including the "homework" has helped me re-surface from my recent trauma, being stronger, more confident, more kind and incredibly more loving to myself and others. Willem is an integral part of my mental health strategy and I count myself lucky that I have him in my corner.'

'Thank you for everything you have given to us through this course. You have said correctly that it is a lot of material for us to digest/assimilate, which of course means it’s been a massive effort by you and an incredible gift to us.
I am grateful.'
PM, North East Victoria, Australia
'I started out questioning my sanity, feeling a bit off with life and not coping with the passing of my partner and other life dramas over the last few years. I booked an initial consult with Fire and as we chatted about my life so far, she came to the wonderful conclusion I was not nuts, just needed direction in dealing with things. After giving me homework each session, I began to understand my life and feel less anxious - even seeing things with a different perspective. I used the writing method to get my feelings out and to understand them. This style of counselling was an excellent form for me. It has helped me to be more aware of my future and creating a new life for myself. While not wholly content in life just yet, I am in a far better place and able to use the tools Fire gave me to move ahead however I now choose. Thank you Fire, even while writing this I am thinking of my next page in life.'

‘Thank you for the beautiful influence [that] you have had on my wellbeing and this way [in which] I understand this life journey! I would walk into your studio all tangled up, often with my heart racing and my mind in a spin, and leave calm – which was always the biggest relief! I want to thank you for all of your love, care, support, advice, calm and wisdom. You have helped me change my life in the most beautiful way.’

'The change, improvement, and growth in these past months have been amazing. I've been able to have appointments with Fire both face-to-face and via Telehealth from Tasmania as my work brings me between Vic and Tassie, so that's been really helpful too for the continuity. With Fire's guidance I've been able to re-learn to listen to my body more, and am remembering again how to slow down my thoughts for a more mindful lifestyle. '

'Earlier on this year I worked with Willem in some online coaching sessions. There had been some major changes in my professional environment, where I was struggling with how to move forward from a leadership perspective. Willem was able to help me to look at the situation from a different perspective, and also helped me to better analyse the group dynamics that I was faced with. This led me towards making some significant procedural changes within my group, as well as a change in my own leadership style. I am most grateful for this learning and now look forward to the year ahead with new perspectives and a new freshness.’

'The [short} course really challenged me with questions in such a compassionate and sensitive manner, as some aspects can be hard to acknowledge. This has given me a more complex understanding of my thought patterns with clarity and knowledge. I highly recommend this process to anyone looking to delve into their past experiences, current challenges and to explore your current way of thinking. I now have more of an awareness to be able to focus on a more positive future mindset. Thank you.'

'Just wanted to let you know {Fire} that I really appreciate our sessions. I received some news last night from family that was a brutal reality check of how fragile life is. I left your session this morning feeling at peace, centred and the best support person I could be. Thank you’

'I have found my sessions with Fire to be inspiring and professional. The knowledge, guidance and down to earth approach that {Fire teaches where} not always one size fits all is very welcome in my busy schedule. Within 1 week of my first session I was breathing easier and now after 4 weeks I am utilising my new found information nearly daily. I highly recommend Fire at Mandaram Benalla.'
