Perdita Sinclair

I currently have availability during weekdays and some evenings.

I practice Person-Centred Counselling, a gentle yet powerful approach that adapts to the unique needs of each client. With experience working in the NHS and various agencies, I have supported individuals aged 14 to 85 from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of mental health challenges.

I work face to face and online.

In my practice I aim to cultivate a good depth of understanding about each person's experience, empowering them to navigate their journey and enhance their sense of agency and wellbeing.

I am an artist as well as a counsellor and artistic skills like close observation and an appreciation of diverse perspectives are vital in both fields. I believe these attributes help to create a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel understood and valued.

As someone with dyslexia, I’ve faced challenges in a predominantly neuro-typical world. Yet, my neurodiversity fuels my curiosity and empathy about how others experience life. Clients that I have worked with have presented with anxiety, depression, grief and trauma, as well as various diagnosed and undiagnosed conditions. Having dealt with my own mental health challenges in the past, including postnatal depression, I understand that seeking help and starting therapy can be hard and strive to make the process as welcoming as possible.

If you would like to see if we can work together, I offer free 30 minute introductory session. Prior to this session I will send you a copy of my contract so that the terms of therapy are clear from the start.

Subsequent sessions are 50 minutes long.
