Lynn Naidoo BA (Hons) MBACP

About me

I am a fully trained person-centred therapist qualified at degree level, a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (MBACP) and adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice.

I believe that life challenges us all at some time in different ways and at differing times of our lives.  We need to find space to explore feelings in a safe, calm environment, to be heard without judgement enables and facilitates us finding our way forward by making sense of and understanding ourselves.  We are all unique and one size does not fit all. I believe I can offer you that safe environment to explore, to enable you to grow and find a way forward for you. I am approachable and aim to work with you to make sense of your life.

I am able to offer daytime appointments with weekend and evening flexibility.

My practice is based in Rugby, Warwickshire in a quiet location just outside of the town centre with free available parking.  My therapy room is based on the ground floor and has wheelchair accessibility.
