Lesley Crawley

Your story matters and you will be met with understanding and empathy. Whether you're facing sadness, fear, guilt, shame, stress, or unresolved memories that continue to resurface, counselling offers a pathway to peace and healing tailored just for you.

I hold an MSc in Therapeutic Counselling from the University of Greenwich and I currently teach on a counselling degree course. I am also a priest in the Church of England. While my faith and spirituality inform my approach, my practice is rooted in secular therapeutic models. I am not a “Christian Counsellor,” but rather a counsellor who happens to be a Christian. I enjoy working with people of all faiths and none.

My passion lies in helping people grow, find purpose, and achieve freedom from unresolved issues. I have expertise in trauma therapy, particularly with adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. My practice is dedicated to working with adults. I  offer sessions online, on the telephone or outdoors through walk-and-talk therapy.

I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and personal growth.

Compassion is essential for our well-being. I offer a non-judgmental space, enabling you to cultivate curiosity and compassion towards yourself and your experiences.

Trust forms the foundation of any meaningful relationship. I provide a safe, confidential environment where you can freely explore your thoughts and feelings.

Therapeutic relationships thrive on collaboration and mutual respect. You are the expert on your own life, and I am here to support you on your journey. Together, we will work as partners, honouring your insights and empowering you to achieve your goals.
