Transformative Support for Families: A Journey to Healing
I was referred to Lindsay Munyard in 2021 when my family was in a state of interconnected crisis. My neuro-diverse elder daughter was severely depressed and self-harming, my youngest daughter had an eating disorder, my marriage was under stress, and my own mental health was extremely poor. Lindsay calmly and carefully helped us unpack the multiple areas that were impacting us all and guided us on to other support services as required to address our individual and family based issues. Lindsay provided sessions as a family, as a married couple, and finally to myself to address childhood trauma issues that continued to impact my behaviour and thought processes. This has been an ongoing process and will remain a challenge for me, however, I feel that I have acquired the skills and resilience to manage this more effectively.
Certainly, our family dynamic has vastly improved. In addition, Lindsay is an extremely personable and empathetic counsellor with a great sense of humour, which I found to be an unexpected bonus.
Embracing Healing: A Personal Renaissance
I finally decided to address my childhood trauma and Lindsay has been an exceptional guide. In just 18 months, his expertise and dynamic approach have opened up new levels of self-awareness and understanding within me. Lindsay’s gentle, patient, and affirming methods have not only taught me invaluable strategies for reconnecting with myself but also fostered a deep sense of self-love and acceptance. His ability to adapt and personalise the healing process has been transformative. I highly recommend Lindsay to anyone seeking a skilled and empathetic mental health professional.
A Journey to Self: Nurturing Growth and Harmony
My first encounter with Lindsay was via an introduction on the telephone. And even then, it was clear that he was a kind, nurturing, and guiding soul and, as I have since decided, very wise beyond his years. From the beginning, Lindsay has been a great listener, gentle and kind, supportive and understanding, yet directive and challenging. I have always felt heard and safe. He has helped me to build a better understanding of how genetics, upbringing, culture, past experiences, and relationships both positive and negative have shaped the beliefs, thoughts, and feelings I have today, and ultimately my actions, self-belief, ego, and self-esteem.
Key to this growth, Lindsay always asks that I be responsible and accountable, calm and considered, and have a go and move forward. And perhaps most of all, asks me to be respectful and kind to myself. These days it’s all too easy to compare ourselves to others, especially with all the social media and advertising. Yet Lindsay is like a beacon, a light directing us gently yet clearly into the paths that we chose and perhaps, if we are lucky, where we belong. I feel more balanced, in control, and at ease with who and how I am and how I engage with others and the world around me. And with that comes belonging and joy, peace and acceptance.
In short, Lindsay is extremely well-qualified and capable, always professional and respectful, kind and directive, and I believe because of his care, I am better able to love myself and those around me which are in balance and in harmony. He brings me joy and hope and teaches me to love better. My words probably don’t capture how amazing he is but simply put, he’s the real deal and pretty cool!! I will forever be grateful.
