Mia Lake

Life can feel extremely hard when you are experiencing difficulties or when you are trying to make sense of things, past & present. You may be ready to 'move forward' with your life and ready to explore some of the things that have been holding you back. 

I run MindMove Counselling in Leeds and I am here to help you with that 'move'. Please take a look at my website www.mindmovecounselling.co.uk

My therapy rooms in LS15 (Whitkirk/Colton) and Chapel Allerton (LS7), both are modern & private.

You may prefer to have telephone, Face-Time, Whatsapp or Skype sessions. These sessions can be particularly useful if your are travelling for work/pleasure; or if you prefer to have a session within your own environment.

I am a Registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) and I work with men & women of all ages and with young people (between 11-18 years), on wide ranging issues.

For many reasons it can be difficult to speak with family, friends or others you might normally talk to or confide in.

The counselling service at MindMove is completely confidential & non-judgemental, regardless of what you bring to your sessions. Being able to talk with someone who doesn't know you, who won't judge you and won't tell you what to do, provides you with a freedom you are unlikely to have with anyone else. In our sessions together, I support you, I listen to you and we work together to help you move forward.

We can arrange a telephone consultation prior to having a session. Please call or text to arrange. Or you may have some questions, you want to ask. Again, please call/text.

Some of clients prefer to stay in familiar surroundings and have counselling sessions via telephone, Skype, Face-time & Whatsapp, following our initial assessment session together. Everyone is an individual and I tailor my counselling to help you.

At times it may be hard to talk about how you feel. We may use  drawing, writing, music and other creative means to help facilitate.
