Pause has been a lifesaver for me. For years, I struggled with OCD and anxiety, and I felt trapped in a cycle of taking antidepressants to manage my symptoms. But after working with the team at Pause, I was able to overcome my OCD and reduce my dependence on medication. Their compassionate and personalised approach helped me develop the skills I needed to manage my thoughts and feelings in a healthy way.

Looking for a therapist is never easy. I always had numbers but never the courage to call them up and fix an appointment. From that standpoint, Pause seemed perfect; It took minimal effort from my end apart from clicking on a mouse, after which they did the hard yards to find the right person for me. Beyond their matching skills, the ease with which the logistics of sessions are handled, the care and time they have for their clients, shows a real empathetic side that makes you feel very comfortable when you’re at your most vulnerable.

I sought out therapy with Pause due to their structured approach to understanding my needs and an attitude of helping that their therapists embody.It has been a great support on my journey so far as their regular updates, amore nuanced feedback on our discussions and a caring format to our conversations have helped me feel safe and comfortable. I am grateful for the changes they are trying to bring in the mental health sector, especially for people in high-stress professions.

I didn't once feel pressured by the idea of having to do "this therapy thing" because the whole process with Pause works like a well-oiled machine. I don't have to worry about a lot of stuff I struggled with when it came to my previous therapist. It's refreshing to not feel anxious about the admin bit, I just click on a link & show up for my session & I'm basically done. I've referred Pause to EVERYONE I know & your approachability is just amazing. The MSE is really helpful since most people (myself included) are really scared of making first contact and exploring what their issues even are with a real person. I feel calmer, more organized, sorted & just more in control of my life.

The lockdowns plunged me into a profound sadness as my life goals, occupation, and connections were completely disrupted. Pause assisted me in regaining my mental and physical stability by providing the resources, advice, and encouragement needed for self-help. I felt immense relief upon discovering a therapist who truly comprehended who I am on my own terms.

Anyone who’s ever sought therapy knows that it can be an extremely unnerving process at the outset, peppered with a litany of doubts. The lovely folks at Pause facilitated this process for me with tremendous care and sensitivity, connecting me with the person I felt was right for me. Not only that, Pause’s team continues to check in on me routinely and inquire as to my progress and how they can better serve my needs.
