"Lucky I am to be under the care of a complete professional"

About: Sligo/Leitrim Mental Health Services / Sligo Leitrim Psychiatry of Later Life

(as a service user),

I was suffering from depression when I was put under the care of Amanda. From the beginning I felt relaxed. This is an unique skill that Amanda has - putting people at ease. She is also a brilliant communicator. All the advice she has given me has proved invaluable in my recovery. She has a very pleasant personality which helps to relax the patient. I know how lucky I am to be under the care of a complete professional. Her expertise and knowledge of all mental aspects has helped me enormously. I know when I first came here I was pretty secretive, but under Amanda's tutelage I believe I have opened up and become a more rounded person.

I know that I am extremely fortunate to have the guidance of such an excellent tutor.

Finally all I can say is that for me Amanda has been brilliant.
