I was extremely happy with the care I was given from Dr Woolley. Having arrived at the initial consultation in a highly distressed state of anxiety, I felt I was listened to with great care and attention. He had a sympathetic and reassuring approach. While, he recognised how difficult things were for me, he was not alarmed, which reduced my anxiety and I left feeling more hopeful. The intensive therapy, plus medication was exactly the right approach. I felt extremely cared for and have learnt so much about managing my thinking, to take into the future. I do feel the culture stemmed from Dr Woolley's care and he headed a great team of psychotherapists, who possessed extraordinary expertise and kindness. I have struggled with bouts of depersonalisation since the age of 16 and through the work at the Schoen Clinic, I feel I have never been in a better position or have a greater understanding of my condition, which is invaluable. Having been completely debilitated in July, I now feel happy and fulfilled in my life within six months. I also recognise the work I am able to put in, when I notice any ruminating trying to taking control.
