Jared Clayton

I offer a flexible service from Tuesday to Saturday and I am happy to find a time for our work together that is suitable for both of us. 

I work in-person face to face at The Practice Rooms (www.thepracticerooms.co.uk) in Leeds City Centre, situated off Park Square.

However, if you would prefer I also work online using Microsoft Teams.

Also during daylight hours and weather permitting I offer Outdoor Therapy around the Leeds area.  

For further details please consult my website at www.calmerseastherapy.co.uk

I offer a concessionary rate to students and adults under 25.

Hello, my name is Jared. I am an Integrative Counsellor who works from a relational perspective. This means that my counselling practice is based around an understanding of the interrelated and often multilayered nature of human experience. I combine this with an interest in how we relate to ourselves, others and the world around us today and in our past.

Our experience of life is affected by a wide range of factors and influences personal to us. Valuing this uniqueness guides my core belief that therapy should not take a one size fits all approach.

As an MA qualified Integrative Counsellor, I am able to draw upon my knowledge of different forms of counselling to provide a therapeutic space, that would be carefully tailored to support you, as we work together towards your goals.

If you are finding life challenging, feeling lost, alone, anxious, sad or perhaps angry. I can offer a safe and supportive space, in which we can explore any issue that is important to you.

Most of us will face times in our lives where we experience unwanted thoughts and emotions, that may leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected and unable to cope. In these moments it can be daunting to reach out to seek help, but I believe that within that courage lies the strength to begin the journey towards a different future.

By placing a genuine focus on providing a warm, open and non-judgemental space, where the people I meet can feel heard, valued and respected. We can begin to develop a strong and positive therapeutic relationship, where we are able to work together to support you in exploring your needs and help you reconnect with yourself and the world around you.

I run an inclusive and neurodivergent aware practice, that is open and supportive to all. I have experience of working with a diverse client base and a wide range of issues.

My style is non-directive and person-centred, which means that I work collaboratively with you and the issues that you choose, at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

As an insured practitioner with an enhanced DBS certificate, I am ethically committed to providing the most therapeutic experience that I can to everyone. I work sensitively with trauma and all forms of anxiety and have undertaken further training to be able to offer “Walk and Talk” sessions during daylight hours.  

If you are looking at this directory, then it is likely that you are thinking of seeking support for yourself or someone that you care about. I appreciate that finding the right therapist can feel like a challenging and at times daunting experience.

If you would like to know more about counselling itself and the therapeutic process in general or you would like more information about me and my style of therapy then please feel free to visit my website (www.calmerseastherapy.co.uk) or call me directly (+44 7376047555). We can discuss any concerns or questions you may have about starting therapy and explore your individual needs and ways in which we might best work together to achieve them.
