Therapy and Coaching to Help You Break Free, Feel Better, and Move Forward
​
Do you want to let go of anxiety and stress and feel calm, focused, and in control?
Are you ready to build lasting confidence, improve your self-esteem, or finally break free from phobias, addictions — or the weight that’s been holding you back?
Whether you're looking to heal the past, shift your mindset, or set meaningful goals for the future, I combine therapeutic depth with coaching strategies to help you create real, lasting change.
Life is too short to feel stuck, unfulfilled, or unsure of your direction.
Let’s work together to reconnect you with your strengths — and unlock the potential you already have within.
Therapy or Coaching
The primary difference between therapy and coaching lies in the focus of the work. Therapy focuses on mental health and emotional healing, while life coaching focuses on setting and achieving goals, helping you move forward to be the best you can be.
This does not mean that they are mutually exclusive. Significant life-changing work benefits from being on a coaching framework, and coaching benefits greatly from the use of therapeutic interventions to break through limiting beliefs.
Therapy
We will use cutting-edge tools such as BWRT, Heartmath, NLP, and Clinical Hypnotherapy in therapy, along with more traditional techniques such as Mindfulness. We will create a solution tailored specifically for you to achieve the best outcome so you can live a life of being the best you can.
​
​
What can we work with?
Anxiety, trauma, PTSD, CPTSD, OCD, grief, procrastination, low self-esteem, imposter syndrome, fears, phobias, psychosexual dysfunction, confidence, sleep Issues, emotional eating, Divorce, toxic relationships
Addictions and unwanted habits including alcohol, food, smoking, porn, nail-biting, cannabis, social media and more…….
​
Mind-body work, including IBD, IBS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Thyroid, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Fibromyalgia. Performance enhancement training for both serious sportspeople and those just wanting to get a bit fitter.
​
Coaching
Coaching can be a goal-oriented process where we work to build a vision of where you want to be and create a plan to get there, but it can also be a way to gain skills and techniques. Sometimes, during coaching, we need to sidestep to therapeutic tools to enable you to break through limiting beliefs, allowing you to move forward with your plan.

ABOUT ME
Accredited BWRT Psychotherapist and Master Coach - Clinical Hypnotherapist - NLP Practioner and Coach -Mindfulness and Reiki Techer
I am an experienced and highly skilled therapist and coach. I have helped clients make a fast and lasting change since 2000. Do you want to find calm and lose the anxiety and stress from your life? Are you letting things slip just once to often? Are your limiting beliefs stopping you from the life you long for? Are you successful in some areas of life and not others? Do you want to increase self-esteem and confidence? Are you wondering if this is all there is? Life is too short to be unhappy, unfulfilled, or unsure. By using cutting-edge psychological therapeutic tools, along with traditional practices, l will help you make those changes as quickly as possible.
For most of my life, I have lived with a chronic condition, and despite this, I have had several successful businesses. After fifteen years in private practice as a podiatrist and osteopath, 2000 was the year I discovered Reiki. This was life-changing, and I became a Reiki Master Teacher in 2002. In 2003, I founded a property development company, and the results are still evident in the property portfolio I own, which spans several areas of the UK and abroad. My journey as a coach and therapist began in 2005, when I trained in NLP and hypnosis with Richard Bandler and Paul McKenna. I applied my newly acquired skill set to make fast, lasting changes in my life, improving every aspect. Others saw that change and quickly asked me to help them, too. As a coach, my journey continued with further training in NLP Coaching, Hypnotherapy, and Mindfulness at Central England College, BWRT with The Terence Watts BWRT Institute, of which I am an accredited Level 3 BWRT practitioner and Master Coach. Additionally, I completed training in Psychotherapy, WSN personality profiling, and coaching at the Essex Institute. I now have a wonderful life, seeing clients one-on-one in person or via video call, running workshops and retreats at home and abroad.
Book a free 30-minute consultation, and we will discuss finding a way forward and creating fast and lasting change, so you, too, can have that fantastic future

What Clients Have Said
Alexa, London
James, Edinburgh
Lisa, Chester
I was suffering from crippling anxiety and it had started to affect all areas of my life. I had confided in a friend who recommended Lesley. We did it all online via zoom and by session three I felt a different person, by session six I felt ready to start living my best life. I know myself better and feel better equipped for the the good and bad times ahead.
ROBERT, Edinburgh
I had been asked to appear in a large work related court case and absolutely terrified. It took just one session with Lesley to sort out my fears. Three weeks later I was on the stand for a whole day, couldn't believe it, not a problem. I would not hesitate in recommending Lesley. Cannot thank her enough
Despite achieving great success I have always suffered from imposter syndrome and was massive people pleaser. Not anymore!I am living my life being the best I can.
I followed an alcohol reduction program with Lesley. 8 sessions took me from a bottle of wine a day to drinking a couple of glasses socially at the weekends.I discovered why I was drinking and what my triggers were. She also coached me in some stress reduction techniques to keep on the right path.
Joanna, Surrey
I had been through an extremely toxic divorce. I had lost all my confidence, suffering from anxiety and depression. I thought my life was over and I didn't know who I was anymore. I am a year into my journey and life has completely changed, new job, new friends, new confidence and I have even been on holiday. I am now looking forward to the best of my life and some time in the future a new relationship.
Ted, Florida
Lesley helped me through a very stressful time in my life. I was suffering from Panic Disorder and someone suggested BWRT. I found Lesley on the BWRT website. I have a no hesitation in recommending her.
