Hi, I'm Sara, a therapist based in Leeds. I am passionate about working with LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent clients, and offering a therapeutic space to those who may feel on the margins of society. As a therapist, I have worked in bereavement, mental health, sexual violence and University services. During this varied experience, I have worked with people from a diverse range of backgrounds, cultures and experiences. I have availability on Tuesday and Wednesday each week. Working face to face in Meanwood, Leeds and online via Zoom.
In my experience, therapy is a unique space to better understand yourself, or work through a challenge you’re finding difficult to manage alone. Having an opportunity to discuss your feelings and experiences in a confidential space, can help you make sense of life. Each week, dedicating time for yourself in a warm, empathic and non judgemental environment.
As a therapist I have no expectations of you, the space will be yours, to focus on what feels right. We may initially set some hopes for therapy, but this can evolve over time. I appreciate choosing the right therapist can be overwhelming, I have been there. If you would like to explore this further, please get in touch for a free introductory call.

I have worked in universities for over a decade, working with a diverse range of people with differing cultures, faiths, sexualities, and identities. This experience has enabled me to understand how our identity and environment can shape how we see the world and how relevant this is to our therapy.
