Jasmine McNiven

I offer face to face sessions from my space in Horsforth, Leeds and online sessions for those further afield. I can also offer home visits within North Leeds. 

I currently have very limited availability, but I am taking referrals for January 2025. 

As a therapist, I offer a space for you to talk about the things that can be tricky to think about alone, or share with loved ones.

I will work with you to explore whatever difficult experiences or feelings you are struggling with.

My goal is to help clients find more joy and peace by creating space for understanding, acceptance and change.

I’m trained as an integrative and relational therapist, which is a fancy way of saying that I can draw on different therapeutic theories and skills depending on your unique needs. 

More important than all the theory and skills out there, is creating a space that feels safe, welcoming and warm to you. No matter what you are struggling with, I will offer a compassionate and non-judgemental space for us to explore it together at a pace that feels comfortable to you. I do not believe in a one-size fits all approach; what works for one person, does not work for all so I like to collaborate with each client to find out what resonates and work in a way tailored to your unique needs.

My approach to therapy is based on my belief that the way we experience the world is influenced by circumstances that are outside of our control. We don’t get to choose when or where we are born, how we are raised, how other people interact with us or what is happening in the world around us. This lack of control can make us feel overwhelmed, helpless and at times want to just give up.

However, the one thing we can control is how we respond to the chaos around us.

For many of us, having any control over our lives can feel completely out of reach. It isn’t an easy or quick journey, but I strongly believe that each and every one of us has the ability to learn how to make better choices for ourselves that can result in us living with more peace, kindness and joy than might feel possible right now.

Within our sessions I strive to work with you to find a better understanding of self and offer tools and practices to help you begin to feel more agency and less ruled by circumstances outside of your control.

For example, sessions could include exploring your childhood experiences, looking at your current relationships, creating diagrams to identify your patterns and behaviours, or be stripped back to simply talking it out.

Some approaches/ideas that I regularly draw on are:

-Compassion Focused Therapy

-Existential Psychotherapy

-Person-Centred Counselling

-Neuroscience and biology

-Eastern and Western philosophy

-Trauma-informed approaches

-Psychodynamic theories

It is important to emphasise that the session is your time to use how you want. 

I offer a free 20 minute consultation during which we can begin to get to know each other and explore ways we may work together. To book a consultation please get in touch.
