About Me

Hello, my name's Leon and I am an experienced and accredited Counsellor and Therapist but I am also a human-being.

It is through my personal life experiences and training that has given me the opportunity to work with, and become understanding towards many life issues. I have many area's I am trained in and have a special interest in.

I specialise and have extensive experience and training in the field of Addiction. In addition to my private practice I feel privileged to currently work for Elysium Healthcare (Formerly employed by Priory Healthcare) on their inpatient detox and Addiction Treatment Program (ATP), offering 1-1 therapy, group therapy, family therapy, psycho-educational/creative workshops and groups to client's for their treatment and recovery process. I also facilitate their family programme offering group therapy and educational workshops to family members. Working with family members affected by addiction is a special interest of mine.

I also currently provide post-treatment aftercare counselling for addiction healthcare companies that offer private treatment for alcohol and drug-related issues. I have previously been a volunteer counsellor for CRI (Formerly – Sussex Alcohol and Substance use Service – SASS) where I gained substantial experience and training in working with substance misuse.

Whether its drugs, alcohol, sex, relationships, Co-dependency, gambling, the internet, food, shopping or anything else: we can try and find a way out.

My counselling and therapy training has taught me the Integrative approach to working with people. This enables me to draw from many therapeutic approaches so we can find a way of working that meets your individual requirements.

I have been in private practice for many years now and I love what I do. My aim is to offer something different.

I can offer long term open-ended therapy to explore deeper issues, or focused short term counselling for specific problems.
