Emma Leeper
Integrative psychotherapistAbout Me
I am a qualified and registered practitioner, working in Woolwich Arsenal, both online and in person. I can provide counselling and psychotherapy to individuals on either a long term or short term basis.
Working in this field, what I've found is that the human experience can often be full of stress or conflicted emotions, we may have a sense of dissatisfaction, or a lack of fulfilment in our day to day. I believe that through talking therapies we can begin to understand the processes and patterns at work in our lives. It is through this awareness that we give ourselves options, the power to change, and the capacity to accept ourselves with more compassion.
I am an integrative psychotherapist. This means that I draw on a variety of different approaches and schools of thought to offer individual psychological support. I believe in working collaboratively with someone, supporting them to decide what they feel they need, tailoring an individual therapeutic experience, unique for each person. I work humanistically, valuing the lived experience of an individual, and their innate ability to move towards a sense of well-being. The therapeutic relationship is an important part of my practice, I believe that psychological healing starts here, with someone feeling heard and appreciated.
My current special interests are in mindfulness practice, bringing compassionate awareness to our everyday experience, and in the ongoing human dilemma of grief.
