Testimonials

I have worked with Equilibrium Practice in my role as Case Manager since 2023. The practitioner is caring, efficient, very knowledgeable and responsive. The reports are thorough and accessible to both clients and the multidisciplinary team. It is a pleasure to work with Equilibrium Practice. Fiona Reeks, Clinical Case Manager & Occupational Therapist & Director of ERGO OTS Ltd

My practitioner has enabled me to recover from depression, which I have had for a very long time. I've learned to cope differently and have got my life back. Thank you. John

I suffered with panic disorder and generalised anxiety disorder for many years. Initially it impacted my life minimally, but eventually it consumed everything and I couldn't even work. I had tried various therapies before finding Equilibrium Practice, by which point I did not believe recovery was possible for me. My clinician is very skilled and experienced, kind and patient, and ensured I felt supported during each of my appointments. The treatment plan was clear and easy to follow, and my only regret is that I didn't find them sooner. It's hard to explain the difference in me today. I've not had a panic attack since completing my treatment. If anyone is unsure about reaching out, please do. I thought that was something you just have to live with, but it's not. You can recover and live free of anxiety and panic attacks. Amanda

My practitioner is an excellent listener and a bastion of common sense when I need it, while also bringing a level of sympathy that she achieves through her vigilance to know and understand me. When I'm working with them, I feel free to express my views and struggles without fear of judgement. My practitoner is clearly very committed to her role as a therapist and will ensure that my struggles are heard and resolved. Tiernan

During my autism assessment, my clinicians ensured that the proper procedures were followed and were very thorough in making sure that all the information was recorded. Tiernan
