Rosie Johnson

I currently offer face to face or online sessions on a Thursday (9am - 6pm) and a Saturday (10am - 1pm). 

My Counselling room is located on the first floor and does require the use of stairs. There is a car park located at the front of the building, a comfortable waiting area and friendly reception staff. 

I provide a confidential, warm and comfortable setting. My Counselling room is located close to the A1, and within a 5-10 mile distance from Pontefract Central, Wakefield and Doncaster.

Welcome, my name is Rosie - I use my middle name.

I work as a Dynamic interpersonal (DIT) and Integrative therapist, with people who are looking for a space for reflection, exploration and change.

The people I work with are often interested in trying to understand themselves and their difficulties at a deeper level. Many clients are seeking to make sense of something in their lives with support that feels safe and contained.  I offer short-term and long-term support, and work creatively with you to meet you where you are, at a pace that feels right for you.

I have an interest in supporting others to build an understanding of their unconscious relationship patterns, including attachment issues and limiting self beliefs. I offer a therapeutic relationship that facilitates the exploration of how life's difficulties have come to shape how you relate to yourself, others and the world around you in ways that impede on your life.

I offer the space to work at depth, and take a closer look at what is causing you distress in order to bring about sustainable change. 

You may feel stuck in recurring relationship patterns and problematic dynamics. Have fears around abandonment, or commitment. You might have a sense of feeling adrift, disconnected from your true self or finding life hard to navigate. 

Therapy can support you in feeling better resourced to manage relationship issues, to develop more hope and self-trust, or to start taking meaningful steps towards a life that feels more fulfilling for you. 

My approach is thoughtful, compassionate and collaborative. The process of therapy allows space for your past and present experiences to be heard, felt and understood. With an emphasis on building internal resources and emotional capacity. 

I provide a safe setting for therapy where together we can explore issues carefully, without judgement or avoidance. Over time, clarity can emerge and this helps to build understanding, insight and new possibilities moving forward. 

I work from a trauma-informed perspective, with 5 years professional experience as a qualified Counsellor and DIT Therapist. Working with adults from diverse backgrounds across the NHS and charity sector. I ensure that the therapeutic support that my clients receive is safe, respectful and sustaining.

At times, therapy can feel challenging as part of the process of contemplating life's challenges. However, it is often a deeply rewarding and worthwhile process when the time feels right. I provide a warm and empathic space for you to explore and express yourself freely and safely. 

I graduated as a Therapeutic Counsellor (Integrative approach) in 2021 with Leeds Beckett University.

In addition, I graduated as a Dynamic Interpersonal Therapist with The Anna Freud Centre in 2023. I gained accreditation status in 2024. DIT is a NICE guidelines approved Psychodynamic NHS Talking Therapy. 

I offer a free initial 15 minute chat to see if we would be a good fit.

We would then arrange to meet for a one hour assessment session which is £55.00. 

All therapeutic sessions are 50 minutes and are £55.00 per session face to face or online.

I offer weekly or fortnightly sessions, on a short-term or long-term basis.
