WPA Counselling in Shipley
LGBTQ+ affirmative, trauma-informed therapy for people who have always felt different in some way. The world can be a hard place if you feel a lot. You might have been told you’re too sensitive or too much. There’s space for you to put down who you've been told you 'should' be and come as you are.
You might be struggling with anxiety, relationships or an over-active inner critic. Perhaps you find it hard to trust your decisions and stop people pleasing. My own journey has given me proof that change is always possible. Together, we’ll work to overcome the things that have been holding you back so you can start to feel better.

I am a provider with Aviva, AXA Health and WPA and can bill your insurance directly for approved claims if you wish to use your insurance for therapy.
I work with adults (18+). I have experience working in various settings with clients with different goals/needs. I welcome clients with a range of presenting concerns. However, I am particularly interested in working with clients who have experienced trauma.

I welcome all enquiries, and I welcome people of all genders, sexualities, and backgrounds.

Most people feel overwhelmed and 'burned out' at some point in their life. Often we know what the problem is, it might be work related, personal or a combination of things. Maybe, it is less clear, a general awareness of feeling low and unhappy much of the time without really knowing why. It can be invaluable to have somewhere private and confidential to talk, to be able to think more clearly about what isn't working, the reasons why and how things could be different going forward.
