Mia Lake (MBACP) LS7, LS17 & LS1... Counsellor at MindMove Leeds

About me

Thank you for looking at my profile. My name is Mia Lake and I am run MindMove Counselling in Leeds. Please take a look at our website www.mindmovecounselling.co.uk

I am also one of the counselling practioners at Healthwise Leeds, in Chapel Allerton.

I see my private clients in Chapel Allerton (LS7), Alwoodley (LS17) & Leeds City centre (LS1).

I am a qualified Person Centred Counsellor, experienced in many issues.I am also a Registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP).

Life can be hard when you are experiencing difficulties or when you are trying to make sense of things, but you may be ready to explore some of your feelings. By looking at my website, you are taking your first step towards doing that.

You may be feeling a sense of loneliness, have anxiety or low self-esteem, be suffering with panic attacks or phobias; be trying to come to terms with a diagnosis or illness, or you may have symptoms of depression?

If you are trying to come to terms with a bereavement or other loss, you may feel alone and needing to talk to someone other than friends or family. There can be many other reasons for wanting to talk to me, such as relationship issues, self-harm, eating disorders or abuse, gender...

I can offer you a safe and confidential space and over the sessions, we have, we can discover together any underlying problems behind the difficulties you are experiencing.

HOW COUNSELLING CAN HELP...

For many reasons it can be difficult to speak with family, friends or others you would normally trust.

The counselling service at MindMove is completely confidential and non-judgemental, regardless of what you bring to your sessions.

How do I know if I will get along with my counsellor?

I fully appreciate that speaking to me for the first time, may feel like a huge step.

This is why I suggest we speak first on the telephone. This allows me the opportunity to introduce myself. For you, it allows you the chance to briefly explain some of the things you are struggling with.

We can talk further at your first session and you can then decide if you would like to arrange further sessions.

During our sessions together, you can take your time and go at your own pace.

While you take your time to 'unravel' some of the things you are struggling with, I will be alongside you, helping you explore some of things you are feeling and trying to deal with.
