  • "Starting your own business can be overwhelming, and it often takes a toll on your mental health. Anxiety has held me back at various points while trying to get things off the ground, and I know it probably will again. But having someone to talk to who understands both the pressures of running a business and the importance of mental wellbeing has made a real difference. Speaking with Steve at Silence Speaks has helped me realise I don’t have to face everything on my own. He’s offered genuine advice and perspective that gave me the strength to keep going. If you’re struggling with your mental health or just feel like you’re carrying something heavy, I honestly couldn’t recommend Silence Speaks more highly"

    J.C, age 26, Individual Therapy Client

  • "I started walking therapy with Steven last year. During our walking therapy, Steven always listens deeply and responds thoughtfully. During every session, I have been amazed by his ability to find hidden insights and connections in my blindspots that I just hadn't been able to see. Steven's skill in turning my thoughts around to the positive-but-true is something I appreciate every week. I would strongly recommend Steven to anyone going through a hard time in their lives, either with walking therapy or in a meeting room.

    G.A, age 42, Walking Therapy Client

  • “As a counsellor myself, I can attest to Steve's exceptional empathy and willingness to give it his all. No finer, more upbeat therapist could be found to assist anyone seeking guidance in navigating their emotional health and wellbeing.”
