Client Testimonials
“In early 2020, I engaged with Baljit Kamal c/o Well Space Therapy with a view to supporting a employee local to her practice who required CBT treatments.
From the outset her support to this employee has been outstanding in both their work and personal life, with the added difficulty in these strange times, in having to later set the required social distancing measures. Her calm approach, engagement, updates and delivery, has been first class and reflected in her results.”

“I have worked with Baljit Kamal in the past at various charitable events, and what has struck me about Baljit is how easy she is to talk to. Her calm demeanour and compassionate sense of understanding means it is so easy to open up to her and speak from the heart.
Her vast life experience to date means she is more than equipped to help advise on any issue. I’ve seen this from my own experience and when she has helped others. I believe Well Space Therapy will make a huge difference to the lives of those they support.”

“I was quite hesitant for my first session as I had never seen counselling as an option that would work for me before. However at the end of my first session, Baljit completely put me at ease and I already felt that the therapy techniques she had explained to me could really do some good.
Throughout my therapy journey, Baljit really helped me to understand how to work on myself in the future! I highly recommend her service”.

“I found Baljit’s manner very supportive, gentle, empathic and sensitive. She introduced me to several concepts I had not previously been aware of which I found helpful.
I also felt that Baljit was very flexible in our discussions allowing me to go in directions I wanted which helped me to focus on topics that were at the forefront of my mind”

“The support I received enabled me to start to properly understand grief and gave me permission to look after myself and provide myself with time and personal care.
Baljit was very warm, friendly and kind, but also challenged me to talk about the difficulties I have had in facing up to the grieving process I needed to go through and I feel she has helped me tremendously. She has left me with tools to look back on and enable me to help myself going forward”

“Baljit is an excellent counsellor and I will give her a 5 star rating.
Baljit really made me feel like she genuinely wanted to help me and cared as each session was so engaging, informative and connected really well, with what I was experiencing.
The sessions were tailor made to my objectives and this really has enabled me to use the tools I have learnt to not only help me with the problems I was experiencing in the present, but also for the future. I now feel well equipped and able to deal with situations by using the knowledge and skills Baljit has provided me with and I am so grateful”
~Client review
“Before my first session, I felt apprehensive and nervous as I was unsure whether therapy would ‘work’ for me as I myself wasn’t even sure what the problem was.
I am thankful to say that from very early on Baljit made me feel at ease with her understanding and attentive approach. She has ultimately helped me to help myself.
I’ve learnt about so many new concepts from our sessions, and she has provided invaluable coping strategies that I can confidently say I will continue to use in the future”
~Client review
“I want to express my gratitude for the service you have provided which has been consistently excellent, warm, kind and reassuring.
In the early sessions, I remember always feeling lighter at the end, like a warm breeze had blown over me and I could breathe. It was actually a feeling I later understood as kindness”
~Client review
“I really enjoyed working with Baljit over the six counselling sessions.
When I attended the first session, I was attending my father’s funeral the following week. This first session prepared me for the days leading up to the funeral and the days thereafter. I found the inner strength to get through this difficult time. I found the exercises useful and will continue to revisit them going forward.
My most favourite exercises were the (i)self care exercise and (ii)boundary exploration . The selfcare exercise opened up my understanding as to what selfcare consisted of and the importance of looking after yourself. The boundary exploration exercise allowed me to review my personal life and address how the different types of boundaries can be applied. Overall it was a valuable experience”

Baljit is an excellent, solution focussed counsellor who listens to and supports you by providing activities and suggestions to work through your negative experiences, behaviours, feelings and emotions.
She had the answer to everything I raised. In just six sessions I feel empowered to face the future and work through and overcome my issues.
~Client review
“The counselling service Baljit provides is consistently excellent, warm, kind and reassuring. I found each one of our sessions helpful and am grateful for the way they opened up space for me to speak and be heard, while at the same time introducing me to practical steps I could take to better handle the specific issues I was facing at work.
Baljit listened with care and sensitivity; paid attention to the complexities of how I was feeling and helped me to recognise and understand more fully what I was feeling and why.
I have been very lucky to benefit from Baljit’s expertise and abilities as a therapist; I cannot recommend her service enough”.
~Client review
“I found the counselling sessions really helpful in taking stock each week and having a safe space to check in with someone who was non-judgemental, kind and supportive. I was given a variety of tools and techniques that are continuing to help me but also given the space to find what worked for me.
I feel in a very different place than when I sought help two months ago and although I still face challenges, I feel much stronger and grounded to cope.
Baljit is a great listener and her kindness, warmth and knowledge have helped me very much”
~Client review
“I accessed eight sessions with Baljit through my Employee Assistance Programme to address the impact of work stress on my mental health. I write this review many months after completing the sessions – what we did in that time still positively impacts me today!
Baljit does an excellent job framing the overall process of the series of sessions as well as each session. She is warm, non-judgmental, and provided both valuable education as well as resources to explore.The activities I did between sessions helped me as much as our work in sessions – some I still re-do now. Similarly, through our sessions we explored different ways to manage stress – I tried several new methods and the ones that I responded to best I still do regularly”
~Client review
“Baljit was a very positive influence on me. She helped me in accepting my situation and feelings, was a really good listener and showed patience throughout my sessions. Her outlook was non-judgemental towards me, and she made me very comfortable during our sessions.
It was because of her that I took my first step towards resolving issues in my marriage and discuss them and I’m glad I did that which improved not just our relationship but also gave a sense of perspective.
Big thank you for that and for being very patient with me. I’m indebted and I really am glad that I got in touch with you”

“Baljit was a very calm, approachable and kind therapist, and made my first experience of counselling very comfortable.
I feel more confident handling my anxiety now that she has given me some tools to diffuse my distorted thoughts and provided me with some relevant psychoeducation around the topic.
I felt listened to and supported well”
~Client review
Baljit’s work with me has been so beneficial. She took the time to listen and work through my issues and find the best and appropriate way forward. She showed compassion and caring in a controlled and balanced manor that was friendly and professional, and not patronising or cold.
Baljit introduced ways and means to open your mind and address things in a new way, providing the tools and skills to empower yourself and help moving forward.
~Client review
“Baljit exceeded my expectations, gave me tasks to complete and listened with patience, empathy and care.
This contributed to turning my mindset around from being totally psychological exhausted and stressed, to focused, positive, confident and in a very different place.
All the tasks helped me to come to my final conclusion for a way forward I feel happy with.
Baljit was amazing, thank you so much”
~Client review
“The support I had from Baljit over six sessions was so important for helping my recovery from work related stress. She was able to build on the previous counselling I received and make the sessions targeted and developed around me. The supporting work between sessions were so useful and helped me develop the skills for an effective return to work”

“My experience with Baljit was probably better than I anticipated; I didn’t know what to expect but the structure provided to the sessions and her own genuine warmth and kindness encouraged me to revisit experiences from many years ago, not just the more recent trigger of events.
It’s a very hard first step to take, acknowledging that you need some support with your mental health, but I would recommend Baljit to anyone who feels as though they’re struggling to cope; you won’t regret doing it”
-Client review
“Baljit helped me to reach my goal by enabling me to explore my boundaries within a safe and nurturing environment and incorporate healthy ones. She encouraged and taught me how to become my own secure base and therefore I was and am able to self soothe. She encouraged self-exploration, in which I was able to untangle my feelings from others and access my autonomy.
Using her calm, organised, experienced manner she guided me to recognise old patterns that I had become accustomed to adopting and gave me strategies in which to navigate my way in more positive manner. I now have hope for the future, as I am able to manage my helplessness and despair (when it descends) in a more productive and practical manner, which enables me to feel less out of control and helpless to navigate my negative thoughts and feelings.
It was the best decision I ever made to ask for help. This experience has really changed my life. Thank you so much”

“I first reached out to Baljit when my mum passed away.
I spoke to Baljit for an initial discussion on the telephone and I was immediately struck by her warmth and kindness. I had no hesitation in proceeding to making an appointment, which then started my journey.
I was initially looking for grief counselling and her profile attracted me for that purpose. She helped me hugely through this time, explaining the stages of grief and offering support and guidance throughout. She took time to understand what was going on all around me and encouraged me to be kind to myself.
I am so pleased I found Baljit. She has a very calming nature. She has walked me through the past months offering compassion, understanding and kindness in a non-judgemental way. She provides constant guidance in a safe space and has worked with me to transform the way I navigate life in general. She is an amazing listener, always so happy for the sessions to take whatever turn they do. She will then offer validation and explanations. Very often after such sessions I have felt a sense of peace, and a “lighter” feeling.
She has provided me with new techniques and concepts which I now use daily. Every session Baljit suggests new resources, be it handouts, podcasts or authors/books, which I seek out to further enhance my well-being.
I would encourage anyone looking for help to reach out to Baljit. I know I am so grateful that I did”

“My sessions with Baljit have enabled me to gain control and structure of my thoughts and in turn my life.
