Romana is the best psychologist I have ever seen. She has helped me through some extremely difficult times that I would not have managed without her assistance and advice. Still seeing her and still receiving the best care and results.

Very clever and takes a very common sense approach to therapy which is very workable. Recommend

In my experience, Romana doesn't dwell excessively over theories of phsycology and condition of the human brain. She understands these things well, but instead focuses more of her time with clients towards practical therapy that gets effective outcomes and change. I came out of my series of sessions being really well equipped to deal with my mental health disorder and highly recommend her to others.

Dr Bowd quite literally saved my life. She is both professional and friendly, empathetic and honest and she really knows her stuff. Couldn't recommend Dr Bowd more highly.

Before my first session I knew that any half decent councillor should 'tell it like it is' and honestly I dreaded the thought of a therapist drowning me in cotton-candy, feel-good, you-poor-thing, tripe. Doctor Bowd was a breathe of fresh air. Of course, I didn't want to hear the truth but to move on and grow you need to face reality. I truly appreciated Doctor Bowd's professional, friendly and caring approach. She has helped me through some very trying times.

I had some sessions with this counsellor. Unfortunately, she is not equipped or skilled in dealing with domestic & family violence matters.
I felt patronized at times & treated like a child, which was most disappointing.
I detected a fairly high degree of victim blaming & privileged-middle-class bias coming through the counselling.
I can't say I recommend this counsellor at all.
Consulting with this counsellor did me more harm than good.

At the end of my first session Dr Bowd had pin pointed exactly what I had been dealing with! What a relief that was. I'm looking forward to having more skills and knowledge managing future situations, with much thanks and appreciation to Dr Bowd.

It took me quite some time to work up enough courage to visit a therapist. Dr. Bowd was recommended to me and I'm extremely glad I followed that lead. Dr. Bowd has a wonderful way of reaching out and unravelling my many problems and is very respectful of my personal boundaries. She has truly won my trust- something I won't give easily. All worthwhile journeys take time and cost money. I'm so fortunate Dr.Bowd is helping me with mine!

Expensive. Unhelpful, unempathetic, seems aloof. I invested a lot of time and money into therapy and got nowhere because she didn't understand my circumstances and couldn't relate to me.
