About me
Hello, I'm Julie. I am a qualified integrative counsellor and registered member of the BACP, offering counselling in Leyburn, North Yorkshire, and online across the UK.
I work in a neurodiversity-affirming way and welcome clients with ADHD, autism and other neurodivergent experiences.
Many people come to counselling feeling overwhelmed, stuck or misunderstood. You may be experiencing anxiety, trauma, bereavement, relationship difficulties or the challenges of being neurodivergent.
I offer a warm, neurodiversity-affirming space where you can feel accepted, understood and supported.
As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to tailor our work to your individual needs. Rather than expecting you to fit a particular model of therapy, I adapt my approach to support you as a unique person.
Together, we can explore your experiences at a pace that feels comfortable, helping you understand yourself more deeply and make changes that feel meaningful and sustainable.
The relationship we build together is at the heart of my work. My aim is to create a space where you can feel safe to be yourself, without pressure, judgement or the need to have everything figured out.
Training, qualifications & experience
Alongside my private practice experience, I have worked within an NHS secondary mental health service and a national bereavement charity. This has given me experience supporting people facing complex emotional and psychological challenges.
I hold a Level 6 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
My training is integrative and includes person-centred, relational, humanistic, Gestalt and Transactional Analysis approaches, enabling me to adapt therapy to the individual rather than working from a single model.
I have completed specialist training in: Understanding Autism (TQUK Level 2), and Online and Telephone Counselling (80 CPD hours).
I have particular experience supporting adults experiencing anxiety, ADHD, autism, burnout, trauma, bereavement, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and significant life transitions. I am committed to ongoing professional development to ensure my practice remains ethical, informed and responsive to the needs of my clients.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
