More about Lesley

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

My name is Lesley. I am a member of the BACP and a qualified person-centred counsellor based in the UK.

I believe seeking support is a sign of real strength and not a weakness as some may think. I am an LGBTQ+ ally and have experience working within this community and the many challenges around identity and relationships. I also work with individuals who suffer from anxiety, stress, those who are coping with loss and grief, low self-esteem. I also work with individuals who have suffered trauma, looking at how trauma effects the operation of our nervous system and how our body reacts to this.

We are all unique individuals and valuing this uniqueness I would be honoured to listen and work with you as you share your experiences and begin your journey of growth

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion and will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
