Hello! My name is Anne and I have been working for some time with multicultural clients. My own personal journey exposed me to some of the tribulations someone undergoes when confronted to a new environment.

Typical issues might include: a sense of disorientation, depression, stress, self -esteem, anxiety, loss, eating concerns, etc…

I am qualified (MA) and registered (UKCP, MBACP) as an Existential psychotherapist. But, most importantly, behind the qualification, therapy is essentially a safe and contained place, (sheltered away from the usual pressures and expectations), where you can be heard in a meaningful way.

It helps you make sense of feelings and thoughts that can be experienced as, confusing, disempowering, and overwhelming!

We will unpack them together and try to get some meaning and sense out of them.
It is about self understanding through an increased self-awareness and its resulting insights which lead to a change of perspectives and a sense of well being.

It is confidential and it is a collaboration.

I am looking forward to meeting you.
If you feel you need to talk, please contact me through the Student Affairs office or by email.

Hello my name is Beverley Moslin and I am a counsellor. I am a Registered Member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (MBACP, BA Hons, Dip HE).

Counselling offers an opportunity to explore what matters at the heart of your life with an experienced professional in a quiet, confidential setting. I am trained in a number of approaches but first and foremost I begin with a person centred approach. This means I will listen to you and together we can build a way of working that suits you best.

I worked as a counsellor at Leeds Beckett University Student Counselling Service before setting up my own practice so I have lots of experience working with students and the particular difficulties of student life.

I have been working as a counsellor since 2008 and before this had various jobs in mental health, education and social care. Previously I have managed a community outreach service, run therapeutic art and play workshops for children experiencing learning difficulties along the autistic and Aspergers spectrum, and managed a complementary therapy centre.

Some areas I work with:

• Anxiety and panic
• Bereavement and loss
• Coping with life events and transitions
• Cross-cultural issues
• Depression
• Family and relationships
• Health issues
• Low self esteem
• Problems in the workplace or difficulties with work or study
• Sexuality, gender issues, sexual relationships
• Spirituality
• Suicidal feelings
• Traumatic childhood experiences
• Well-being and personal growth
