Emma Leckie BA (Hons) MSc MBACP

About me
I have a private practice in the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside where I work with individuals, families and groups of all ages. My work is facilitated by a long established herd of naturally kept horses and other animals.
My way of working is relational and experiential, based on building a strong therapeutic relationship between my clients, myself and the horses; where clients can explore their issues safely but outside the usual confines of room-based therapy.
I firmly believe in the healing power of horses and the therapeutic benefits of the human-animal bond. I also utilise play and creativity in my sessions and the powerful affects of being at one with nature. As such much of the sessions are conducted outside.

I am an Relational Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist and an Equine Facilitated Psychotherapist, qualified to Post Graduate Diploma level in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I have just completing an MA dissertation researching the affect of Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy on the therapeutic relationship. I am a senior LEAP Practitioner (www.leapequine.com) and a Registered member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy)(www.bacp.co.uk).

I particularly enjoy working with adolescents and have worked for a number of years with young people who have been excluded from mainstream education as a senior coach at The Seeds Of Change (www.theseedsofchange.co.uk) using horses to facilitate learning and personal development.
