"Hello do you or someone you love need a safe and confidential space to talk and explore life difficulties? My passion is to help people enjoy fuller, more accepting and authentic lives through improved self-awareness, self-esteem, resilience, autonomy and effective coping strategies. I'm experienced at working with children (8+), teens and adults from diverse backgrounds with a variety of difficulties. I work in an inclusive and empathic way to ensure that my clients feel heard, understood, valued and supported as we explore their life difficulties in a safe, non-judgemental and confidential setting."

"Hello, my name is Victoria and I am a Humanistic & Integrative Counsellor working with the Leicester and Lincoln areas. There are many reasons why we might seek counselling, whether that's for issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relationship issues, loss, childhood issues, bereavement, or because we simply want to make changes in our lives. Whatever your reason, I aim to provide a safe, confidential space and time that is yours. A place for you to talk and be heard. As an Integrative Counsellor I believe that the relationship is key in allowing effective work to happen and for change to take place "

"Many of us, for different reasons, find parts of our lives very difficult; sometimes overwhelming, and it takes immense courage to work at understanding the things that are unsettling us. Past experiences can mould the people we become and by thinking together we can help discover why patterns of behaviour exist and encourage new patterns for the future; the hope for lasting change. My belief in an individual's ability to explore and evolve their understanding of themselves and their situation underpins my work."

"I am a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist. I have over 15 years’ experience working within a mental health and social care settings, working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-worth, loneliness, relationship issues, loss and bereavement.

"Hi, I am Practice Director, Psychotherapist & Clinical Supervisor at Rutland House Counselling and Psychotherapy Ltd (RHCP), a private therapy service based in the heart of Leicester city (Bowling Green Street). I offer private therapy myself, however RHCP hosts a team of Psychotherapists and Counsellors offering tailor-made therapy for Adults, Children, Families, Couples and Businesses in a comfortable location . If you are looking for private therapy but are overwhelmed by the choices available we would be very happy to offer an assessment with a senior therapist who will make recommendations for you. "

" Sometimes, friends and family are not enough. Sometimes you and your partner seem not to be able to resolve your relationship issues or difficulties on your own. Maybe the anxiety, depression, worry and fear are too frightening or embarrassing, run too deeply, or the impact on those close to you just unknown. If you want to talk about what is happening in your life, I can provide you with that space. To be yourself, speak out those unspoken thoughts, put words to those feelings, we can walk together into your dark places."

"Sometimes, deciding to go to a counsellor can be a difficult step. Some people may feel a sense of failure if they, as an individual or couple, haven’t been able to sort out their problems by themselves. Others may find the idea of therapy daunting. You might be worried about feeling judged or your point of view is not accepted. You might be looking for a safe impartial space to explore your options and seek answers to those issues you might be facing right now. It can feel overwhelming at times when powerful feelings and painful memories get in the way of where you want to be."

"A great deal of my practise is focused on supporting individuals going through challenging times in their lives due to anxiety, depression and those having difficulty in finding direction. I have particular experience supporting people suffering from chronic or terminal illness and with bereaved people, exploring the many complex issues which arise at such times. I am very comfortable and able to work with clients who have concerns about sexual identity and sexuality. "

"Hello, I believe it can be tough sometimes perhaps because you might be feeling stuck or your sense of direction has derailed, its ok! I get it! All you want is to feel heard. However you are feeling, it truly is ok! Trying to understand where it is you are right now is an important part of therapy, which will help you to overcome issues, such as anxiety, stress, lack of confidence & low self - esteem. You maybe feeling some or all of these and the thought of getting back on track feels like a challenge. "

""Maybe the journey isn't so much about becoming anything. Maybe it's about unbecoming everything that isn't you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place."unknown. There are many different reasons to seek out counselling - whatever your reason, I aim to provide a safe, confidential space and time that is yours. A place for you to talk and be heard, to explore, to imagine, to feel and express without judgement. A place where you are not alone in your journey, but have someone alongside you to support you and honour your unique life experiences."

"Everyone can struggle at times - with anxiety, low self-esteem, depression or just feeling low. Close relationships can go stale or get into difficulties. Bereavements can knock us sideways - sometimes 'hitting' suddenly even though it happened some years ago. Recent or past traumatic events can have a huge impact on our wellbeing. These are some of the emotional difficulties people struggle with. Close relationships have their ups and downs and emotions, even negative ones, are a normal part of our daily lives. It's when they drag us down, affect our quality of life, become overwhelming, that counselling can be a great help."

I also have a specific interest working with mild-to-moderate eating problems & related lifestyle habits."
