Experienced & Effective Psychologist
Connect Psychology Practice prioritises the establishment of a safe relationship between you and your psychologist. We value kindness, compassion, holistic and integrated support - working from the question of 'what happened to you?' as opposed to 'what is wrong with you?'
About Leigh
Experienced and Empathetic Psychologist

“Connection is the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship.”
- Dr. Brene Brown
Our Approach
Connect is all-encompassing: encouraging healthy relationships between you and chosen others; a synergy between body and mind; and an opportunity to (re)script your own narrative.
Therapy is personalised to the individual, but can include approaches such as:
-
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR).
-
Acceptance and commitment Therapy (ACT)
-
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
-
Narrative therapy and Narrative Exposure therapy (NET)
-
Trauma-informed Yoga
Combining the wisdom of your body's existing knowledge - with modern psychological expertise creates - an innovative approach to mental wellbeing that is Connect Psychology in practice.
