​My Leeds story...

I first came to Leeds in 2008. I was working for NECA - North East Council for Addictions in Middlesbrough. I also travelled to Sunderland, South Shields & York to support clients in established centres. I was re-located to Leeds city centre to set up a new practice as the company was expanding it's support to West Yorkshire. I started off with 1 client and ended up with a full-time caseload and a long waiting list. After 2 years of commuting from Redcar, 150 mile round trip, I moved to Leeds to offer support to my clients. I became a private practice psychotherapist in 2013 supporting clients with symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression. In 2018 I moved back to Redcar to care for my Dad with Alzheimers and again commuted to Leeds until Covid lockdown in March 2020 when I started working from home supporting clients though the pandemic. After Dad died & 7 years in Redcar, I decided to move back to Leeds to be near family.
