The Therapy Lounge Reviews 446

After a smoking relapse after 20 years of not smoking Steve has put me back on track to being smoke free. A compassionate and no messing approach has helped me beyond what I expected. I now plan on seeing Steve for other reasons as I found his honesty so refreshing and realistic. Thank you

Steve is an excellent coach and "problem solver". Can't recommend enough.

Excellent therapist. Kirsten is caring, kind, non-judgmental and very professional. I thoroughly recommend her.

Steve Burns is just an outstanding coach and therapist. Each time I have the privilege of being in his awesome presence , i learn something new and enlightening .
I love you coach ❤️

Steve helped me think about a whole new perspective on how to make myself happy

Steve’s no-nonsense, direct approach has been of huge assistance to me over the last decade. He has helped me with a wide range of issues, from quitting smoking to career progression as well as getting comfortable (being uncomfortable) with public speaking. I have referred numerous friends and family to Steve over the years and will continue to do so. A solid professional and a delightful human being, to boot.

I’ve had sessions with other therapists in the past but those with Kirsten were far and away the most insightful, productive and effective. Kirsten’s approach is clear, no nonsense and highly supportive. She is able to quickly identify the root causes of issues to work with you in a sensible and structured way to make positive change. Highly recommended.

Steve will help you rewire your brain and see the world from a much more enlightened point of view.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that my life has been transformed since meeting Kirsten 18 months ago. One area of my life was really stuck but with care, insight, love and compassion, Kirsten held my hand metaphorically and allowed me to “unstick” myself. She is an absolute genius and apart from her incredible knowledge and skill, her gentle, kind, inspiring approach gave me the confidence and belief in myself to never get stuck again. I’m so much happier and so secure inside. I owe most of that to Kirsten and will be forever grateful.

Steve has been a fantastic help to our family over the past few years. He has worked with both our sons (22 and 19) on different occasions and has really helped them to work through some key challenges, including health anxiety and more generally dealing with the tricky transition into adulthood. His approach has really helped them to make sense of things, remove any stigma about asking for help and most of all helped them to learn more about themselves. I would highly recommend Steve and believe our family is happier because of his hard work and input.

I hate to use the term game-changer, but that is exactly what The Therapy Lounge has been for me. I’ve spent 20+ years with self-help books and therapy and none of it compares to the breakthroughs I’ve had in my sessions with Steve. You can’t have a dialogue with a book, and despite working with several professionals in a handful of countries, nothing resonated with me as much as it has here. The people around me are just as delighted as I am with the progress I've made during my time working with him.

I can’t believe I’m actually writing one of "those" reviews I always read as corny testimonials. I keep looking this over to find different words so I sound less corny but I don't care anymore, I am just incredibly grateful. In the past months, I’ve seen consistent changes, and so have the people around me. For the first time I feel like my authentic self, not a robot playing a role or a watered-down version of myself just trying to fit in. Steve helped me break free from self-limiting beliefs instilled in me since childhood. Now I feel like I’m ten years old again: free, motivated, energetic, brain bubbling with creativity.

When I started working with him, my home looked like a portal to the chaos realm after a long period of agoraphobia, and I was very stuck in my own echo chamber of negativity. Steve's sessions were the catalyst I needed for the fog I’ve been living in to finally lift. I finally broke the decades-old habit of trying to hate myself into right action, which I've been trying to deprogram for years. I’ve had a paradigm shift beyond the brief euphoria you experience after a retreat. Even over a decade in recovery didn’t give me the peace of mind I have now.

I used to collect self-help books like Tinder dates and would just as passionately hyperfixate on self-improvement as a means of escapism, then I would struggle with chronic inconsistency after these "flings" inevitably ended after a few weeks.

Steve is the right guy if you’re looking for a coach who truly cares and can help you make real, lasting changes. He isn't a "yes-man" who does not placate or B.S. and honestly, his point-blank approach was exactly what I needed after years of being coddled and infantilized.

A ginormous thank you to Steve for helping me figure out my true self and live authentically. I feel like my lungs can take in so much more air now.

I cannot rate Kirsten highly enough for helping me turn my life around. I suffered from bulimia for over 20 years and I saw Kirsten over 3 or maybe 4 sessions. To me she's is an angel sent from above and it still feels like magic the way I no longer resort to binge eating then vomiting just after/sessions. After 20 years of trying several therapists and hours in therapy one day I stopped. She dug so deep I didn't even know these depths in my psychology existed. Kirsten holds you with so much love, care and tenderness that you can very easily lower your guard and allow yourself to be vulnerable and heal completely. Worth every penny and much more I am in awe of her knowledge, talent & skill.

Had the most wonderful experience after having few sessions with Kirsten Dahlerup.
She is so kind, patient and understanding. Also she is outstanding at what she is doing. I feel a completely different person and I’m so grateful for that.

Steve Burns is nothing short of a life saver.

The work you will do together and the homework will change your life forever in the most positive unimaginable way. I am a different and better person thanks to him and I would encourage any person without hesitation to invest in themselves by working with Steve.

Kirsten is really warm and smart and I loved the our time together. I have recommended her to many friends. A totally positive experience!

Kirsten is really skilled. She quickly got to the heart of the things I needed help with and I experienced a dramatic shift in a small number of sessions.

Steve is a master of updating old computer codes in our brains and replace them with more modern and helpful ones.

Kirsten helped me work through some difficult childhood and adult traumas. She introduced and guided me through a range of modalities, and genuinely changed the way I see the world. Since our first session I’ve navigated to pastures so verdant, they would make a cow sick. Thanks you, Kirsten!

Steve was great at helping me to view life from a different perspective. He helped me to reevaluate my priorities and through our sessions and the taks he gave me, he helped me to change my whole thought process. This has allowed me to be more present, less anxious and overall much happier. Steve has a unique approach which is direct but also understanding.

I have been working with Steve over the last 2 years and I can honestly say it is one of the best investments I have ever made.
Steve has been extremely effective at getting to the bottom of any issue I have presented to him, and immediately helped me find a path forward it a positive and encouraging manner.
We have worked on a variety of issues from drug and alcohol use to relationship advice and counselling.

The most valuable aspect of how Steve works is that he gives you the mental tools to navigate whatever life throws at you even after your work together may be finished.

Steve is an absolutely fantastic therapist and all round wonderful human being.

I feel very lucky to have found Steve and would encourage anybody thinking about using his services to reach out immediately!
