      <image:title>About - About Me</image:title>
      <image:caption>My name is Lesley (She/Her), I am a fully qualified Person Centred Experiential counsellor and psychotherapist. I offer both private sessions and work providing EAP (Employee Assistance Programmes) to organisations in the North West of England. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling &amp; Psychotherapy, and am fully qualified, and insured to work online. My belief lies simply and fully in the fact that we all have the ability to change, and feel better about ourselves and our lives. For many of us, it can feel like a difficult step to reach out and ask for help, or even to know where to start when approaching therapy for the first time. If you are unsure, or have any questions, please feel free to get in touch. I recognise, and honour the courage it takes a person to make steps to come to counselling and begin their journey to heal and live a happier life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>What is Counselling?</image:title>
      <image:caption>How can counselling &amp; psychotherapy help? We all experience difficult times in our lives, suffering anxiety, depression, stress, anger, relationship issues, grief, bereavement, physical illness, emotional/physical abuse, low mood, and low motivation, to name just a few of the reasons people come to therapy. At times we will feel like we don’t want to ‘burden’ people with how we feel so we try to push through and carry on, we try to pretend all is ok, we try and cope by putting on a smile and a brave face, often we simply find we are unable to move forward and feel stuck. As a qualified professional who knows from personal experience how difficult it can be to open up and talk about your problems, our sessions will enable you to stop putting on that smile and brave face, and feel heard, you won’t be judged for your thoughts and feelings, this will help you to gain a better understanding of yourself, and your situation, allowing you to make sense of things in your own time.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Online Counselling - Online Counselling</image:title>
      <image:caption>Many people nationwide are now discovering the flexibility to see their therapist online. It can be beneficial as it is less time consuming, and for many it fits in with day to day life much more readily. All that is required from you is that you have a safe space to be able to work with your therapist during your session. Offering online therapy also means that you no longer have to choose a therapist from your local area, you can access therapy whilst working away, it reduces accesibillty issues for many clients, and can also decrease levels of anxiety surrounding travel.</image:caption>
