About me and my therapy practice

Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ

I am a welcoming and non-judgemental person and this is evident in all areas of my life and work. My naturally calm, accepting and caring approach offers clients a highly supportive therapeutic space.

I am part of a thriving counselling, training and supervision practice with purpose built premises to comfortably offer sessions from. 

For nearly 15 years I worked with the NHS, much of this for Leeds and York Partnership Foundation Trust - an NHS body that helps people with severe and enduring mental health conditions.

Having significant first hand experience of working in several mental health services, I developed a keen interest in mental health and a passion to help others.

Qualifying as a counsellor enabled me to begin offering therapy myself informed by this wealth of experience.

I am now part of a thriving counselling, training and supervision practice with purpose built premises to comfortably offer sessions from.

 

Practice description

I offer a truly person centred approach to therapy, I believe that the individual is the expert in their own lives and I aim to let that inner knowledge drive the work whilst drawing on my own unique experience as a therapist. 


I am also a qualified relationship therapist. In this I bring that person centred core approach and integrate that with tools and psycho education from a   variety of sources including Imago Therapy, EFT and the Gottman Method. 

My first session

Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ

I am happy to have a conversation over the phone or online to see if we feel we can work well together. These last around 15 minutes and are not charged.

 
Initial sessions include a conversation about what brings you to therapy as well as some questions which help me offer you the right support. There is no obligation to book more sessions after attending the first one.
 
Most people notice positive changes within the first 5 sessions.
 
Meetings can be arranged around your commitments as much as possible and you do not need to agree to the same time each week.
