About me and my therapy practice
Are you feeling stuck in negative thought patterns, overwhelmed by stress, or disconnected from your partner? Life’s challenges can become heavy, and it’s common to feel unsure about how to move forward.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, or the pressure of a demanding job, I offer a calm, supportive space where you can gain clarity, feel understood, and start making meaningful changes.
I’m Leslie — a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist and qualified counsellor. My UKCP accreditation (Column C) reflects extensive postgraduate training, rigorous clinical supervision, and a commitment to high professional and ethical standards. You can feel confident that you’re working with someone skilled, experienced, and deeply dedicated to your wellbeing.
Having lived in Malaysia, the US, and now the UK, I work sensitively with cultural identity, life transitions, and the challenges of living or working abroad. Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years in Financial Services, giving me first-hand insight into stress, burnout, and high-pressure corporate environments.
Support for couples
I am passionate about supporting couples who want to improve communication and deepen their connection. I have specialised training in the Baden-Pearson Developmental Couples Counselling Model, which allows me to be both directive and supportive as we explore patterns, resolve conflicts, and help you grow as partners.

Hello, I’m Leslie - a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist and a qualified, compassionate counsellor committed to helping individuals overcome life's hurdles and build meaningful, authentic connections.

Having lived in Malaysia, the US, and currently the UK, I understand different life experiences and cultures.

I am passionate about helping couples who are open to change and seeking deeper connections. With specialised training in the Baden-Pearson Developmental Couples Counselling Model. I can be both directive and supportive as we work together to uncover the root of your challenges, face them, and grow personally in your relationship.
