I was put in touch with Ros through my own GP and it was the best thing that has happened to me. Spending time discovering about myself and how i ticked, was met with professional, non-judgemental, empathetic and yet warm and welcoming way. I didn't just sit and talk, i was given information and chances to develop and learn different coping strategies to help with my self worth and self esteem at my own pace and if i needed that extra bit of help Ros was always their with wise and thoughtful words of encouragement. I would recommend Ros to all
