Please let me accompany you down the rabbit hole of life, do we go left or do we go right The choice is yours but I will be by your side shining the beacon of light, illuminating autonomy and personal growth, by your side hearing your voice, a companion on your journey, with you as you embrace your choice.
My name is Kerry Simpson-Lea and I have always been passionate about learning about myself and reflecting on who I am. I also have two ambitions, helping others and travelling, learning different cultures and traditions.
Journeys mean a lot to me, so I embarked on an eight-year journey at Staffordshire University studying Forensic psychology and counselling. I gained vast knowledge about myself and the mind which was achieved using creative methods such as art, poetry and music. I found it gave me a window into my subconscious which I discovered, when shared helped me to grow personally.
“I believe life is a journey, sometimes plain sailing, sometimes off the beaten track. Meeting new people, forging relationships and sharing life’s experiences. However, life can be mountainous. I would feel honoured and privileged if you choose me to accompany you on your journey to personal growth.”
Providing a safe, confidential non-judgemental space for all to have a voice and opportunity for personal growth and to promote autonomy.
For all individuals’ uniqueness to be accepted and celebrated, for everyone to have a voice and more unity in world society.
My personal values are fairness, growth, helping society and diversity.
I would feel honoured and privileged if you choose me to accompany you on your journey towards personal growth.

I feel life goes quickly without too much time to reflect, when time does become available, I am too tired and want to distract myself by watching television and falling asleep having to rewatch programmes multiple times, I feel it can be exhausting.
Escape your mind offers you the space and time to reflect and contemplate the journey we are all on called life. A place to talk and explore openly without judgment, only empathy and unconditional positive regard. Space for you to have a voice and time away from daily life to grow in a safe therapeutic environment.
If you would like to explore this further, please contact me for an initial consultation to discuss working collaboratively together. This is charged at £45 an hour where we can explore your wants and needs and how they can be met through working together therapeutically.

As a foundation for the service I provide, I utilise Humanistic therapy focusing on self-discovery, freewill and achieving full potential as a human being exploring all the factors that make us who we are. I will focus on our uniqueness and our relationship and the relationship we have with the world around us. The approach is self-led helping you to explore the answers that are right for you and helping you to break free from old behavioural patterns and unlock your potential.
However as stated we are all unique therefore, I feel sometimes other approaches may compliment this and enrich our potential further. Therefore, I may also use other approaches such as Relational therapy which emphasizes the importance of the connection and therapeutic alliance between myself and my clients.
Complimenting the humanistic approach is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which explores our thoughts, feelings and behaviours and how they impact each other and the implications this may have if they become distorted. I believe sometimes the way we think can originate from our childhood and I may use Psychodynamic theory to work through feelings and emotions this may elicit to promote personal growth.
I find a beneficial way of facilitating this is using creative methods such as writing, art and poetry however I am aware that some individuals do not find creative methods beneficial therefore I identity as an integrative counsellor working in a collaborative way to ensure the most effective therapy for personal growth.
I therefore would be privileged to walk alongside you on your journey of personal growth, I personally find being in my own head quite challenging and isolating, if this resonates with you, please contact me and I’ll accompany you on your journey to escape your mind.
