Belinda McLeod

I run a flexible psychotherapy practice, offering face to face, telephone and Skype counselling.  I work mainly with individuals, though couple counselling is also an option.  

My approach is eclectic or integrative and includes Integrative Arts Psychotherapy, Gestalt, Person-Centred, TA and is also informed by Psychodynamic and Attachment theories - my work is tailored to each persons needs.

Additionally, I specialise in helping people assert themselves by finding their voice to overcome low confidence, depression, stress and bullying.  In this way and by processing the deeper issues, I help clients to better understand and work through relationship problems (both at work and at home), anxiety, panic attacks, bereavement and health issues. 

The relationship between therapist and client is, in my opinion, the key to successful therapy - by providing the opportunity for open discourse with a client prior to embarking on therapy (usually over the telephone), I am able to assess what is required and if necessary refer them on to other suitably qualified therapists.

In addition to my private work, I have worked for various organisations over the years including Bupa's EAP (Employee Assistance Programme) and the Priory where I worked for their IAPT service in a GP practice.  I also worked independently from the Priory for the NHS, in another GP practice in South London.
