Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Corina Valdano. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Currently we have only had one session Corina was professional friendly and understanding so am excited to see the progression.

Corina is the best therapist

Written on Mar 23, 2026 after therapy with Corina for 3 months on issues concerning relationship issues, and trauma and abuse

I can’t recommend Corina highly enough—she is truly the best therapist I’ve ever had. Her depth of expertise is immediately evident, and she brings both empathy and insight to every session.

What sets her apart is her genuine understanding and compassion. I have always felt heard and supported.

She has also been incredibly available and responsive during times when I’ve needed extra support, which has made a meaningful difference in my experience and progress.

If you’re looking for a therapist who is knowledgeable and truly committed to her clients, I wholeheartedly recommend Corina.

I’ve had four sessions with Corina so far. She is professional, insightful and kind. She also brings change into the conversation at the right moment which enables me to unpack my thinking and analyse it going forward. She’s perfect.

Corina is a fantastic therapist and voice. She was able to help me open up and realise what my own key values were which allowed me to change my day-to-day mindset and outlook onto how I act and treat others. I really appreciated her time and would strongly recommend her to anyone.

I feel incredibly grateful for my sessions with Corina. She’s thoughtful, considerate, and she always asks me insightful questions that allow me to reflect deeply. I feel very safe expressing my thoughts, feelings, and concerns with her. Her support has been invaluable in helping me understand myself better.

Written on Aug 26, 2025 after therapy with Corina for 2 months on issues concerning self esteem, and adhd

I've really enjoyed my time with Corina. She seems to really take the time to understand my needs and meet me where I am. She challenges me to think about things in new ways and creates an environment which feels safe and nonjudgemental. She also encourages me to journal or think about questions outside of our sessions and share them with her and I see she really engages with my answers and isn't just giving them a perfunctory glance. Through this, I don't just think of therapy as an appointment I must attend once a week, but it becomes an exercise of incorporating it into my everyday life. I would highly recommend Corina if you are seeking a therapist.

My therapist allows me to talk about whatever is bothering me and helps me to find solutions myself by asking questions that let’s me really have to think and analyze my issues.
