About me

Hello, My name is Leigh.
I have been told by clients, I am warm, friendly and easy to talk to.
Many years ago, I started as a volunteer for the Samaritans and Victim support.
My interest in counselling grew and I decided that I wanted to know more...
I trained as a psychodynamic counsellor and enjoyed seeing people face to face, from my office in Stilton, Cambridgeshire (which is easy to get to from the A1 Junction 16).
I became involved in setting up a Counselling service for students and staff at a nearby College. Which gave me good experience of working with young adults.
As the time went, on I felt I wanted more tools to work with.
My training as an Integrative Psychotherapist has given me the tools that I felt I needed and working for an IAPT service (Improving Access to Psychological Therapies), for the NHS for 17 years has given me lots of experience of dealing with mental health issues.
It felt a privilege to meet so many people, from all walks of life.
I have always had a private practice in Stilton Cambridgeshire, so that I can work short or longer term. I still work face to face, but since the pandemic I work on-line, using Teams or Face time.
I realise that sometimes it is not easy to go for the first session of therapy, so I offer a free 20 min phone call. Which gives people the chance to talk about any concerns or questions that you have, about starting sessions. If you want to take up this offer, Please contact me and we can arrange a time that's good for you.
Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. Good luck in your search. Leigh
