About me

Hello,� my name is Leigh,

I have been told by clients, I am warm, friendly and easy to talk to.
I originally trained as a psychodynamic counsellor and trained as an Integrative Psychotherapist. Integrating theories from other approaches.�

�Working for the NHS for 17 years. Has given me lots of experience of dealing with multiple mental health issues. It felt a privilege to meet so many people, from all walks of life.
I run a private practice in Stilton, Cambridgeshire (which is easy to get to from the A1 Junction 16). Working face to face or on-line (using Teams� or Whats app).

What you can gain from therapy?

I provide a comfortable, secure space where we can meet, and you can feel safe to talk about whatever you need to. Speaking your thoughts out loud to some one who is independent non-judgmental and professional can often bring a huge, immediate sense of relief. You can speak without fear of being judged or criticized. Talking through your issues helps "get them off your chest," which can lead to you having a clearer, more balanced mindset. It can feel good to know that you have someone to talk to and not have to face overwhelming emotions or difficult life events by yourself.�You can come away from sessions, with a greater self awareness, a coping tool or feeling of hope and empowerment, which can lead to better decision making and healthier relationships.

What happens in the first session?

I will go through my contract with you explaining legal limits of confidentiality and other practicalities. �I will gather information to understand your current struggles and personal history which may be contributing to your difficulties. . We will discuss what your aim is from therapy. This is a time for you to ask questions that you may have, and see if you feel comfortable� starting therapy. There is no pressure to commit to further sessions if you don't feel you want to. Please contact me if you have any questions that I have not covered and I will do my best to answer them.
Thanks Leigh
