Welcome,
I am Leanne, a qualified and compassionate therapist dedicated to helping you navigate life’s challenges. Maybe you feel overwhelmed by daily demands, facing complex obstacles, struggling with personal issues or trying to manage difficult emotions,
Whatever has brought you here, I offer a calm, supportive, non-judgemental space where you can speak openly and explore your difficulties and feel validated. Together we work through these difficulties to develop a deeper understanding, self awareness and develop coping strategies to help life feel lighter.
With over 24 years of working with mental health (NHS) I have a wealth of knowledge and experience of providing 1:1 psychological interventions to those experiencing both mild to complex mental health difficulties and diagnosed mental health disorders.
I also work for a local mental health charity and a certified mental health first aider.
Integrative Approach
I combine Person-Centred therapy with varied models to suit your unique journey. My practice is built on the belief that no two people are the same, and I am committed to making your therapeutic journey as personal and reassuring as possible.
Neurodiversity-Informed
I work as a neurodiversity-informed practitioner with a strong understanding of how to make appropriate adjustments to accommodate differences in communication, sensory processing, emotional regulation, ensuring therapy is accessible, affirming and effective for neurodivergent clients.
Trauma-Informed
I am a trauma-informed practitioner and understand how to adjust therapy to help clients feel safe, supported and in control, while being aware of how trauma can affect thoughts, feelings and behaviour.
