Leah Duxbury
About the Therapist
I'm a considered and resourceful therapist with a caring, warm, supportive nature and a desire to help others help themselves.
I believe that often we can be out of tune with ourselves, having little time for self-reflection, not knowing ourselves, our motivations, or why we do things we do.
We can get caught up in our stories and reliving the same experiences often learnt in childhood. This can lead to feelings such as anger and frustration, being reactive, anxious, feeling stuck or unhappy.
I offer time for you to get comfortable with sharing your life.
To come and explore issues you have experienced and start to better understand and yourself and those around you. Â Doing this will help you to prioritise what is important to you and be less punishing on yourself or others, learning to live a life that is self-aware and ultimately more fulfilling.
I do this by offering a space;
- in which we develop a relationship in which you feel heard and understood,
- safe and not judged,
- cultivating an environment for opportunity and learning.
