Íø±¬ÃÅ

I offer a range of appointment times, including Saturday mornings

Please see my website lailahamade.com for latest availability and to book an appointment. Specialising in couples therapy and relationship issues. Every couple faces challenges. Sometimes, it feels like you're speaking different languages, leading to misunderstandings and hurt feelings. As a couples therapist I can help you reconnect with your partner, so you both feel safe and secure in your relationship, knowing the other person will be there for you, even when you disagree.

As a person centred counsellor I am here to support you in finding your way again, to the authentic you. Discussing issues you are experiencing in the here and now may help you regain a sense of stability, finding a way to move forward confidently. I am here to support you when you are feeling overwhelmed with life and in relationships. I am an experienced, qualified and registered counsellor with the Íø±¬ÃÅ, and I mainly working with couples in person.

I value and welcome open communication within our counselling relationship to ensure you feel on track. In my counselling approach, mindfulness is an interpersonal ‘way of being’ with clients. Mindfulness for me helps cultivate inner acceptance and awareness, which in turn enables me to offer a client acceptance, empathy and genuineness.

I have experience in supporting clients and couples with relationship issues, stress and anxiety, loss and bereavement, self-esteem, sexuality, identity, isolation, and loneliness. 

I can offer some evening and Saturday morning appointments. 

I can support you when life is feeling overwhelming, and when you are experiencing loss, stress, anxiety or depression, and through negative thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

We can work together to explore what is happening, I will listen and try to understand your situation. We may explore your past such as childhood and past relationships and how it affects you now. I have an interest in mindfulness and dreamwork, and can work with couples and individuals.  

Based in the Huntington area of York, there is parking.  I prefer to offer sessions in person, my therapy room is a quiet and calming space.
