Compassionate Counselling for Adults in Leicestershire

Counselling That Helps You Feel Heard, Supported & Understood

A Safe Space to Talk

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or simply need someone to talk to, counselling can give you the space to pause, reflect, and move forward. I offer compassionate, person-centred counselling support tailored to you - helping you feel heard, understood, and supported through life’s challenges in a safe, non-judgemental environment.

Get Started

Break the patterns that keep showing up

My work is grounded in person-centred and humanistic principles, with the therapeutic relationship at its core. I offer a consistent, confidential and thoughtful space where depth in experiences can be explored rather than rushing to 'fix'. Alongside this foundation, I draw on relational, trauma-informed and existential perspectives, recognising how early attachment patterns, unconscious processes and significant life events can influence present difficulties, supporting you to live with greater authenticity and responsibility. Together, I can support you in living more authentically through greater freedom, meaning, and personal responsibility.

Who is it for?

Counselling can be helpful for adults experiencing:

Anxiety
Depression
Relationship difficulties
Grief
Trauma
Emotional disconnection

Some clients I support are insightful and reflective, yet find that awareness alone has not led to meaningful change.

What we work on

Nervous system regulation
Repeating relationship patterns
Identity and self-worth
Attachment wounds
Life direction and meaning
Subconscious beliefs rooted in earlier experiences

How it works

Weekly/fortnightly 50-minute sessions in a confidential setting
Exploration of current experiences, past influences and future direction, at a pace that feels steady and manageable
The therapeutic relationship becomes the foundation for deeper emotional processing

Client Reflections

BA - Leicester

“I’d worked with Ria for eight months, after initially reaching out when I was at a really low point and didn't know where to go. She was brilliant throughout. She is warm, understanding, and incredibly skilled at what she does. Ria created a space where I felt she genuinely listened to and supported me, and she has helped me enormously. I’d highly recommend her counselling services to anyone looking for compassionate and professional support."
