Dr Julian Reviews 

I’ve struggled primarily with PTSD for the last 20 plus years. Thinking I could deal with my demons by myself I was wrong. Progressively I’ve been getting worse, to the point I didn’t want to carry on. My self resolve and changing habits were not enough to hold it together. I needed a leg up, a little bit of help. Being ok one minute and deeply depressed the next wasn’t good for me or my family.

I finally found the balls to reach out to Op courage. This is where I was referred to Dr Julian. I’ve reached out for help before but being a working man needing to pay bills etc I found my previous options limiting. Dr Julian clearly operates in the real world and is accessible at times that are convenient to the regular working people of this world.

My therapist was fantastic. They understood how I was feeling and why I felt like I did. Sessions were broken down in to logical and structured fashion. I’m still scratching my head as to how and why this process has been so effective. One size doesn’t fit all and this they understand. I’d just like to say a big thank you to Dr Julian as I’ve now managed to process the passed and can now build a better future no matter what life may throw at me.

Antenatal depression caught me completely off guard, and I felt ashamed that I wasn't enjoying pregnancy the way I thought I should. Kirsty Chaudary never made me feel that way. From our first session, she created a calm, warm space where I could be honest about how I was really feeling.

She is a brilliant listener, and she gave me practical ways to cope that genuinely made a difference. I left each session feeling lighter and more understood. I'm so grateful for her support.

My counsellor Kirsty Chaudhry was polite, professional and personable throughout our sessions, making it vey easy for me to open up to her about my problems and allowing me the opportunity to become more aware of the issues that were affecting me. Kirsty created a safe-space in which I could express myself and always did her best for me for example, by requesting additional sessions where possible.

The sessions I had with Manu Patel were very helpful at a very difficult period in my life. I got many practical solutions and recommendations.

The app could be a bit temperamental on my Android phone, but we got through the sessions anyway.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Sarah Cross. She was the first therapist I've ever felt completely safe and open with. Her empathy and support guided me through a whirlwind few months, and it really made a massive difference for me.

I would like to thank my counsellor , Ranu Patel, for being so supportive and empathetic during our counselling sessions . He helped me navigate a difficult time in my life in a positive, supportive and sensitive way . I found the counselling sessions really helpful in turning my situation around and would highly recommend Ranu Patel and the Dr Julian counselling service.

Dr Julian has been such a blessing for not only me but the wife too.
Claire Scott made me feel at ease and listened from the start. She has not only helped me through some difficult times over the last year but made me and the whole family a happy home again. Yes there will be hard times ahead but I know with the tools Claire has given me will see me through it. Not only that but dr Julian is there for you anytime and I would highly recommend this company and there therapists.
Without the support and guidance I don’t know where I could have been. Thanks so much Claire Scott.

Excellent service allowing overall you to choose from a comprehensive team of qualified therapists with a wide variety of experience, despite some technical issues with the platform itself.

I was able to view profiles and choose a therapist based on their profiles listing their experience allowing me to find somebody who was right for me. I had suspected I was also neurodivergent and this also allowed me to find a therapist with experience in this area to make sure I could find the right help for me.

Claire Scott helped me work through my issues and make connections I was previously unaware of. Some weeks were emotionally challenging and I have finished the course feeling more confident and prepared to face the challenges life and my own past experiences present to me.

The only negatives have been technical issues with the platform itself. The calls were highly intermittent when done directly on the platform and I found they did not work more than they did so we had to use Teams for the sessions instead.

The app also logs you out every week which is annoying, maybe just add a pin or face ID/fingerprint log in screen to make this process quicker once the app has been logged in for the first time because for myself at least I did not have a need to open the app until shortly before a session.

The first thing I liked about Dr Julian was that I could choose the therapist myself.
I think that is really important as we all have a variety of different experiences, values and needs we will be looking for in the therapist we choose.
I chose a lovely lady named Sarah Cross as I felt she would of had similar life experience to me and was generous enough to share that she had ADHD which was really validating for me as a client to know.
Sarah was kind, thoughtful, good humoured and gently guided me through my own unique journey. I learned so much in such a short space of time and was a very positive experience.
Therapy is not like talking to your friends, it’s a safe space with yourself with a trained professional to guide you back to at the very least part of yourself.
If you are thinking of therapy I could not recommend this lady enough.

Life had been pretty hard going and I just needed a bit of support and help that counselling offers. I was matched with the most wonderful Sarah. During our sessions she was there to listen without judging, offer supportive words of encouragement and be that anchor to steady the ship.

I cannot fault my experience from the initial communication, app, materials but more than anything a fantastic counsellor. Thank you Sarah for your help and support.

I had a great experience with Karen Johnstone. She was helpful and empathetic, but also able to gently call me out when needed. I was able to recover thanks to her support. I can totally recommend her.

This was my first experience using the Dr Julian platform, so was not sure what to expect.
I choose my counsellor Sarah Cross from the information she provided about herself; background & experience. These were key attributes for me that I look for to help me forge good working relationships with people.
My issues were very complex and at times couldn't see the wood for the trees. That said Sarah helped me to breakdown each strand giving constructive feedback as well as helping me to think about a different way of looking at a problem, on occasions solutions.
Overall my experience was a positive one, this was supported by my weekly assessments that reflected my progress so I could visionally see how far I had come.
I have come away with a clearer outlook of what I need to do going forward & next steps for my continued treatment and progression. Sarah thank you I feel like you saved me!!!!. I have no hesitation to recommending this company. My only criticism with the Dr Julian platform is their internet and logging on issues, it is not always easy to get IT support quickly as you have to wait for someone to respond to an email.

My sessions with Karen were excellent

My sessions with Karen were excellent. She really helped me through a tough period with meaningful and tangible insights and advice. Highly recommend and I am very grateful for her support :)

A Life-Changing Experience – I Cannot Recommend Evette Enough!

I honestly cannot put into words just how much Evette Bailey has changed my life.

When I first started therapy three months ago, I was a completely different person from the woman I am today. In fact, when I look back at who I was at the beginning of this journey, I barely recognise her. The transformation I have experienced has been nothing short of life-changing.

Evette has helped me see life through an entirely different lens. I now have the ability to step back, look at situations from other people’s perspectives, understand my own thoughts and emotions, and respond to life’s challenges in a much healthier and more positive way.

It’s almost as though someone has switched on a light inside me. Things that once felt overwhelming now make sense. I have gained a level of clarity, understanding and self-awareness that I never thought possible.

What makes Evette so exceptional is not just her extensive knowledge and understanding of what she does, but the way she delivers it. She is incredibly professional, compassionate, patient, insightful and genuinely invested in helping you become the best version of yourself. She has an extraordinary ability to help you recognise things within yourself that you may never have understood before, without ever making you feel judged.

Most importantly, she hasn’t simply helped me feel better for the duration of therapy. She has equipped me with the tools, knowledge and confidence to continue moving forward long after our sessions have ended. That, to me, is what makes a truly remarkable therapist.

Today, I am happier. I am more understanding, more emotionally aware, and far better equipped to deal with whatever life throws at me. I no longer feel trapped by the way I used to think or react.

I went into therapy hoping to feel a little better. I came out of it feeling like an entirely different person.

I cannot recommend Evette Bailey highly enough. She is an absolute credit to her profession, and I will forever be grateful for the positive impact she has had on my life.

Three months of therapy have given me something I never expected: a completely new outlook on life and the tools to truly enjoy living it.

Thank you, Evette, from the bottom of my heart. You haven’t just helped me through a difficult chapter of my life. You’ve helped me begin an entirely new one.

Outstanding care from Katie Woods – highly recommended

I was referred to Dr Julian's service after my wife was involved in a serious motorbike accident. For a time I genuinely thought I had lost her. Thankfully she survived, but the experience had a profound effect on me, far more than I expected.

From the start I was impressed by how quickly I was referred to Katie Woods. When you're struggling, that speed makes a real difference, and I'm very grateful for it.

Katie provided EMDR alongside talking therapy, and I can't praise her enough. She showed real understanding, empathy and compassion throughout the whole process. She made me feel safe and listened to, and she guided me through some very difficult memories with patience and skill.

I can’t recommend Shuwana Matthews enough. She has been a fantastic therapist and helped me through a very difficult period of my life with her profound knowledge, expertise and kindness. I would highly recommend Dr Julien to anyone seeking therapy and have been so grateful for the support I have received.

Fantastic therapy. My therapist took a holistic approach to help me with my mental health overall, instead of focusing on just anxiety and I feel better than I have for years.

Diana Gaga is just a wonderful therapist! A true credit to the profession. She is hugely attentive and genuinely listens. She will pick up on things that you haven't and can articulate them back to you in ways that really make you think. Highly compassionate and genuinely wants to help you. With her bountiful knowledge and wisdom, she will make you come away from each session with a positive inspired attitude. Thank you Diana it was a true pleasure working with you.

Outstanding service. Coping with our son with mental health issues became overwhelming. Speaking with Kirsty allowed me to unravel the complex issues and the effects of his condition and find a way to continue support him.

I honestly don't think I can put into words how grateful I am to Theodora Daskalaki.

After years of therapy and speaking to different professionals, I had started to feel like I would never truly be understood. I could explain how I felt, but I never felt like someone had really understood why I felt and behaved the way I did.

Then I met Theodora.

From the very beginning, she made me feel heard, understood and, most importantly, not judged. She took the time to really listen to me and look beyond what was immediately in front of her. She understood things about me that I had struggled to understand about myself for years.

For the first time, I felt like someone was connecting the dots rather than simply treating individual problems. She helped me understand myself in a completely different way, and that understanding has changed my life.

After years of therapy, it was Theodora who finally made me feel like I wasn't broken, difficult or failing there was a reason behind the things I struggled with, and understanding that has given me a completely different perspective on myself and my life.

I genuinely believe meeting Theodora has been life-changing for me. She has given me understanding, validation and hope where I had previously felt stuck.

I will always be incredibly grateful to her. She isn't just incredibly knowledgeable and professional; she is compassionate, patient and genuinely cares about the person sitting in front of her.

If you're considering seeing Theodora, I honestly cannot recommend her highly enough. She has made a profound difference to my life, and I will never forget that.

Thank you, Theodora, for seeing me, understanding me and helping me finally understand myself. ❤️
