Leena Sarkio

I work mainly on evenings and Sundays. I offer online session currently. On Wednesdays I also work daytime.

I am Finland based, UK trained BACP registered therapist, who also is a clinical psychologist (University of Eastern Finland, Finland). I have also trained to be an EMDR thrapist and trauma sensitive yoga teacher and a Coach (AC accredited). My way of working is rather active,  but a client sets the goals and themes we work with. I believe that everone has knowledge and wisedom regarding what it is they wish to aim ait. Happiness and balance comes through awareness of every day choices we do, and how we see the circumstances around us. I believe that physical wellbeing is related to the mental stamina as well-. 

I follow the new research and keep training to be able to serve my clients best I can. I work with long and short term clients. 

Please, se-t up a first session if you feel so. First session is free.

I think it is a client who actually does the work in terms of the change process. If we want to get somewhere, ie change your cognitions, actions or emtion patterns, it is hard work and a therapist can facilitate in a process, eg by teaching some tools and give inspiration but therapy is about creating a safe space to elaborate situations, sometimes painful memories, emotions and to process the situation. I have been trained to work also short term way, but can also facilitate a longer intervention. We toghether decide what is a good way further if you choose me as your therapist /coach.

First session is free.
