Lesley Jane Sinnott Prof. Dip Psy C. (Reg. NCS & NHS)
About me
My Training
As an integrative therapist, my training has provided me with a range of therapeutic models to use that best suit the issues that individuals bring into the therapy room, everyone is unique so therefore therapy must be too. I am also an accredited Hypnotherapist and EFT practitioner, registered and accredited with the National Hypnotherapy Society.
How I work
I provide a non-judgemental, empathetic and understanding approach to counselling, where clients feel comfortable to express their issues in a safe and caring environment. I lend the opportunity for clients to feel free to be themselves, feeling both heard and listened to. Clients can confidentially discuss past and present difficulties and gain awareness and understanding about unwanted thoughts, feelings and behaviours to bring about change. The objective of working together will be to help you overcome your symptoms and recover.
What happens in the first session?
Before we meet we will talk on the phone for a brief conversation about what is troubling you and organise a time convenient for you to come and see me. At the first session, we will fill in forms about contact information, GP details etc. and go through a therapy contract. For hypnotherapy there are a couple more forms to fill in about you that will help me to tailor therapy for you. Everything we discuss will be in complete confidence and at a pace that suits you.
How can I help you
With experience of working in the NHS, a North London Hospice, and with a Blood Cancer Charity, I have many years of personal and client based experience in life altering situations, including bereavement and loss, domestic abuse, depression and anxiety, self esteem and confidence issues. I understand the internal and external anguish that these problems can cause us, interfering with our mental health and physical well being.
