You’ve come to the right place

People come to counselling for many different reasons. Some arrive with a clear issue they want to explore, while others simply know that something does not feel right. You may be navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, neurodivergent burnout, addiction and recovery, or questions around identity, culture, masculinity and belonging.

These are all areas of support that Leon can help with, and you can explore them in more detail on the Areas of Support page.

Whatever has brought you here, you are welcome. Leon offers a calm, thoughtful and compassionate space where you can speak honestly, feel heard and begin to understand yourself more deeply.

Let’s Talk

The way we see ourselves, our relationships and our place in the world can shape the decisions we make. Counselling offers space to notice how life events may have affected you, understand the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, and begin to explore different choices.

A different perspective

Therapy is not about being told what to do. It is a collaborative space where you can slow things down, talk honestly and begin to see yourself and your experiences with more clarity and compassion.

Try something new

I will not make decisions for you or tell you who to be. I will listen carefully, ask gentle questions when helpful, and work alongside you as we begin to unpick what feels difficult.

Counselling with Leon Francis

Reaching out for counselling can feel like a big step, especially if you are used to managing things on your own. I offer a free 20–30 minute telephone or Zoom consultation so we can briefly talk about what has brought you here, answer any questions you may have, and see whether working together feels like the right fit.

Simply choose a suitable date and time from the calendar, then enter your details to book your consultation.

There is no pressure to know exactly what to say. We can begin with a conversation.
