Testimonials

Real stories, real growth

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Lara Boss, a counsellor who is truly a gift in my life.

 

From the very beginning, Lara has offered me something rare and invaluable: non-judgmental presence, genuine listening, and a deeply human and holistic perspective. With her, I have never felt reduced to a problem, a diagnosis, or a situation. I have always felt seen as a whole person — with my history, my pain, my strengths, and my potential.

 

Her holistic approach, combined with her sensitivity and professionalism, has made a profound difference in my life. Lara has an exceptional ability to hold space with care, respect, and clarity, always meeting me where I am and honouring my process and timing. Her support goes beyond technique — it is grounded in humanity, ethics, and true compassion.

 

I am incredibly grateful to have met her and to have her accompanying me on my journey. Her presence and guidance have been deeply supportive and transformative, bringing more awareness, safety, and integration into my life.

 

Lara is truly a gift, and I am deeply thankful for her life and for having her in mine. I sincerely hope to remain in contact with her for as long as possible. Professionals like her are rare — she makes a difference not only through what she does, but through who she is."

I've been working with Lara for approximately 18 months. Since the first session I've always felt comfortable, not judged and felt I was always in a safe space to say anything. You truly listen and understand.

You've taught me to let go of heavy emotions, manage my stress and anger and always remind me that I'm human and will slip up. But you've given me the tools to make sure those slip ups are less frequent. 

Your help, guidance, support and compassion have helped me become a better husband and dad, and for that I'll always be truly grateful"

"Lara first met me as a broken depressed man with a lost soul. My mental wellbeing was suffering and I was very emotional.

Her listening skills and ability to empathise in a non-judgemental way allowed me to trust and share my pain. She allowed me to be vulnerable in a safe space.

Lara was able to propose and guide me with a simple plan with small steps of hope. Her ability to listen, tease out issues and to propose options were important tools for my healing. She was very flexible in her approach which accommodated and supported my needs.

Over time, the plan allowed me to grow and I was able to rebuild my self-esteem, confidence and purpose".

COUPLE



Lara supported our family during an incredibly destabilising period following serious trauma.

She brought calm, clarity, and structure when everything felt fractured. Like a steady anchor, she helped stabilise our household and supported myself to support my adolescents with care, insight, and respect.

Lara’s approach is deeply human and precise—she doesn’t just treat individuals, she understands families as systems.

Our home is steadier, our children more grounded, and we are stronger because of her guidance. I am profoundly grateful for her intervention."
