Insiya Maimoon

I have flexible availability, please get in touch for more information. I currently have both face-to-face and online sessions available.

My name is Insiya, and I am an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist. My aim is to provide clients a safe, open and non-judgemental space to explore the issues that have brought them to therapy. I use a combination of Person-Centred therapy, Attachment theory and Cognitive-behavioural therapy in an integrative approach to provide sessions that match your personal goals and needs. 

There may be a number of reasons for seeking counselling and sometimes the reasons might not be completely clear. That is ok, we will work together to better understand what is going on. Deciding to start can be difficult and it is vital to me that you feel comfortable and respected in your Individual journey.

I believe that therapy can increase self-awareness as well facilitate an environment for growth and change. It also may be a place for you to process life experiences and events, including the past and present. We may explore aspects of your identity and sense of self as well as delve into your relationships with others depending on what is appropriate for you. 

Above all, my underlying ethos is these sessions are yours and I will always facilitate ensuring your therapeutic needs and goals are at the forefront. It is important to me that clients feel that the therapy is suited to who they are, and that is reflected in my work acknowledging their lived experiences.

I have experience delivering counselling and therapy in mental health services, occupational health & workplace settings, and private practise.

My special interests are in working with women struggling with  aspects of their mental health, self-worth and identity, and as well as working with individuals processing around cultural issues.

I offer both short-term and long-term sessions. I see clients  face-to-face in Leicester's city centre, as well as online.

I initially offer a free initial 20-minute phone consultation to explore what working together might look like. If you are interested in working with me then please do get in touch. 

If you are interested in working together after speaking on the phone, the next step would then be booking in an assessment. The assessment is a detailed opportunity to discuss in-depth what brings you to counselling, your personal history and what your individual therapeutic goals are. We would also at this point discuss in a more bespoke manner what your therapy/counselling sessions may look like, including exploring how long we might work together.
