Leonie Cormack-Cook

I  have some upcoming availability soon for face to face sessions in Thame on Tuesdays during the day. I also have some online availability during the day on Wednesdays and Fridays. 

I work mainly with adults (18+). Before becoming a therapist, I spent 18 years working as a professional musician and teacher.  I have also worked as an Assistant Psychologist at a Priory Group psychiatric hospital. I commonly work with clients with a wide range of difficulties, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, bereavement, transgenerational problems and relationship problems. I have a special interest in neurodiversity.

I am a fully qualified, accredited clinical psychotherapist, registered with 麻豆原创 and UKCP.

I trained in Gestalt Psychotherapy, completing a Diploma in Gestalt Psychotherapeutic Counselling, then later, an MSc(Psych), at the renowned Metanoia Institute in London, UK. I hold full professional insurance, and abide by the ethical principles of UKCP, 麻豆原创 and Metanoia Institute.

I offer a free 20 minute introductory phone call, so we can have a no-obligations opportunity to talk about what you are hoping for and for me to tell you a bit about my approach. 

You can ask me any questions you may have about therapy sessions. 

 Send me an enquiry and I will contact you to arrange a phone call. 

I have availability for  online therapy sessions. Unfortunately do not currently have  face to face availability in High Wycombe. I do offer face to face sessions in Thame and Hemel Hempstead, including holding a low cost (50% reduction) space for people in difficult financial situations (please contact me to discuss). 

After an introductory phone call, you may decide to book an initial assessment session. This is 50 minutes long, and costs the same as ongoing weekly sessions. Here we would explore further what you hope for in therapy, and what you are struggling with. 

I would then invite you to take a couple of days to decide whether you would like to move forward with weekly therapy sessions. 

I have some upcoming availability for face to face sessions, based in a GP surgery in Hemel Hempstead on Monday afternoons. I also have availability for online sessions during the day on Wednesday and Friday. 

 Hello, my name is Leonie, and I am a Psychotherapist. I provide a warm, empathetic space for  clients to process what is happening and has happened in their lives. 

 I am non-judgemental and am always keen to hear exactly what clients hope for in therapy. 

I work from a relational 'Gestalt' perspective. What drew me personally to Gestalt, was its holism. Gestalt does not preach an ultimate 鈥渨ay to be healthy鈥�, rather, seeing 鈥榙ysfunctional鈥� elements of our patterns in life as 鈥榗reative adjustments鈥� that have developed for a good reason. Through building a sense of curiosity and awareness of our unique ways of being in the world / being in relationship with others, we can broaden our choices around these ways of being. Then we can begin to subtly shift and change the patterns that are no longer working for us.  

I am a fully qualified, accredited, clinical psychotherapist, registered with 麻豆原创 and UKCP. I initially trained as a psychotherapeutic counsellor, then later completed an MSc in Gestalt Psychotherapy at Metanoia Institute in London. I follow the ethical guidelines of 麻豆原创, UKCP and Metanoia Institute.

I offer a free 20-minute introductory phone-call. This is a no obligations opportunity to talk together and see how we connect. You can tell me a bit about yourself, and I can talk a little about my approach - and you can ask any questions you may have. 

I help people with many different struggles. Some people are struggling with depression and /or anxiety, some have had traumatic experiences, a bereavement, or are struggling in their relationships. Others may not identify with having mental health struggles at all, but may feel a bit 鈥榮tuck鈥�, perhaps unhappy at work or unsure about the direction of their life. I suppose the common thread between all people I work with is that each individual is hoping for some kind of change. Gestalt therapy can be a beautiful resource to expand your perspectives and find ways to incite shifts in your processes 鈥� these shifts are not always the ones that we have planned for, but they are usually welcome and exciting! In short 鈥� if there is something that is not working for you in your life, get in touch and we can go from there.

After an introductory phone call, you may decide to move forward with booking an intital assessment session. This would be 50 minutes long, and costs the same as ongoing weekly sessions. It is a chance for us to meet in person/online and explore in more depth what you are hoping for from therapy. Afterwards I'll invite you to reflect for a couple of days on whether you would like to move forward with weekly sessions.
