About Me

Profile Photo 2.jpg

Hi, I'm Haleigh. The first thing you might want to know about me is that I love what I do! Counselling opened doors for me I never thought possible, and I valued the process and how it changed my life so much that I decided to train as a counsellor myself.

My Story

 

I grew up as an anxious child who was often described as sensitive. Learning about the strengths in my sensitivity through my own counselling (it really can be a superpower!) helped me to begin to navigate what felt like an often overwhelming world that wasn't built for someone like me. That's what I want for you, too. I aim for our counselling sessions to feel like the safe space you might need if you resonate with the experience of being a sensitive person in a busy world. 

My Training

 

I trained in Therapeutic Integrative Counselling, which means I was trained in lots of different counselling approaches. I decided to qualify as an integrative counsellor because I believe that there is no 'one-size fits all' approach to counselling. My training and experience working with young people and adults means that our work together will be informed by your experiences to suit you as an individual. 

The work I do with my clients tends to be long-term, meaning I'll be there to support you over months or years. I find this allows us to take a gentle approach to our sessions together, giving us the space and time to work together to deeply understand what your sensitivity is like for you, and to support you to make the changes you would like to make in your life. 

I am fully insured and a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists.
