Leona Mitchell

Through change and discovery of our inner resources we can enhance our relationship with ourselves, with others and accomplish a more fulfilling way to live our lives.

In the process of counselling, exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviours can help you develop more self-awareness and see problems or issues you are experiencing from a different perspective. This can give you an opportunity to reflect on what you wish to change or overcome. Together we can look at ways to help create those changes and overcome challenges. You may also become more aware of obstacles that prevent you from reaching your goals and aspirations. Together we can explore ways to overcome those obstacles. 

Testimonial

“I feel so lucky to have been paired up with Leona for counselling. Her firm but fair approach set healthy boundaries from the beginning (something I have struggled with for a while now). I also like that Leona has a lightness, and gentleness about her which definitely helped me to open up; coupled with a non-judgemental attitude meant the space always felt safe but not overbearing.

I was struggling very badly with anxiety, depression and feelings of being overwhelmed when we started our work together and was lucky to have Leona’s support during the first lockdown and start of Covid19 panic. Although I still have ‘off’ days the tools Leona has given me are meaning I now have a stronger base to start from, so those ‘off’ days are much gentler and shorter.”

The first session will include an assessment, giving you the opportunity to talk about your needs in a little more depth, this will enable me to determine how best to tailor the therapy to suit your needs. We will also agree on how best we can work together ensuring you are actively involved in the process. 

Prior to our first session I can offer a free up to 20-30 minute telephone consultation.
