Hello and Welcome!
Congratulations on taking the first steps in prioritising your well-being.
I'm Leanne, a humanistic integrative psychotherapist and counsellor. I embrace a holistic approach, dedicated to nurturing all aspects of well-being, encompassing mind, body, and spirit. As a humanistic integrative psychotherapist and counsellor, I believe that you are the expert in your life. A journey that is uniquely yours and I am aim to create an empathic safe space for you to be heard and supported, guiding you on your path.
Together, we explore past and present experiences at your pace. Our focus is on compassionate understanding of behaviour and thoughts that may be troubling you in present life.
Connecting with your experiences, choices, and aspirations becomes central to the therapeutic process. We explore inner strength and navigate challenges, empowering you to create positive changes that align with your needs and goals, helping you move forward in life.
Your journey to self-discovery and healing begins here.
Ensuring ethical practice
As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I adhere to their ethical guidelines (BACP, 2018). My four years of training at the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute culminated in a BACP-accredited first-class BSc (Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Staffordshire University. Working directly with a variety of clients, I have built a strong foundation of experience, enriching my practice and enhancing my ability to provide effective, compassionate support.
I am dedicated to maintaining high professional standards and continually building my skills to meet the diverse needs of my clients. In my practice, I focus on creating a safe and ethical environment by following the codes of ethics and professional practice set out by BACP and the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute (SPTI). I also make sure my work complies with UK law to support my clients effectively.
To promote continual growth and align with ethical practice, I prioritise client and self-care by engaging in ongoing supervision and personal therapy with BACP registered and accredited practitioners.
Having fulfilled the required criteria, the practitioner Leanne Banks is considered by the Society to be safe, competent and ethical to practise the vocation of counselling and is thus recorded on the Society Register with Accredited Membership and the designation MNCPS (Acc.) NCS24-05859.
