Transactional Analysis Psychotherapist & CBT Practitioner
"A Highly Experienced Therapist with Years Working in NHS"
Welcome to The Horsforth Centre. Founded by Andy Williams, Liz Milner and Lucie Stephenson, The Horsforth Centre provides completely confidential counselling, coaching, psychotherapy and supervision in pleasant and relaxed surroundings. Based in Horsforth, north Leeds, this counselling centre aims to provide you with a very professional, caring and friendly service to help you find a way forward with a problem or issue that's troubling you.
We pride ourselves on being very approachable and offer you a choice of services and ways of helping you. All four of us are members of professional counselling and pscythotherapy organisations including the BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists) and all have relevant professional qualifications.
Our philosophy is simple - we offer you choice: choice of therapist or coach or counsellor; choice of approach used and choice as to how long you'd like to visit us. We recognise that everyone is different and has different needs and we always endeavour to work alongside you to help you find the best way forward.
We have made the centre as comfortable as possible with comfy chairs, pictures and complimentary hot and cold drinks available to all clients. There's also ample off-street parking.
