More about Lesley

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • NCPS

I am a fully qualified counsellor. I work in an integrative style, meaning I use a variety of ways of working with my clients. I work with all ages from children to older people, and I don't believe in a 'one size fits all' approach - every client is different, has different needs, and I tailor myself to what their needs are.

I offer a safe, confidential space, and consider myself nonjudgmental and approachable.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
