I am Chamari Leelasena, and I offer regular one to one
counselling for individuals, aged 18 and over, and for couples in a safe and
confidential environment. I am an integrative counsellor and an accredited member
of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy
(BACP) and my work is
guided by the BACP Ethical Framework. My main practice is in Wembley, North West

In addition to counselling and psychotherapy, I also offer Clinical Supervision, Workshops and CPD.
Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counselling is a way of exploring your difficulties and feelings in a safe, confidential
and non-judgemental setting, which can help you to make sense of these.
Talking to a qualified counsellor offers you the opportunity to become clearer about your issues.
This clarity can in turn help you tap into your own resources so you may respond more effectively
to these difficulties.
Another benefit of engaging in counselling is the understanding you may gain, in how your past
experiences and current behaviour may be linked. Working with these insights, you gain the opportunity
to choose alternative, healthier behaviours.

Clinical Supervision
I am a certified supervisor and my training was with the Centre for Supervision and Team Development (CSTD London).
Supervision is a joint endeavour in which a practitioner with the help of a supervisor, attends to their clients,
themselves as part of their client practitioner relationships and the wider systemic context.
By doing so, they
improve the quality of their work, transforms their client work, transforms their client relationships, continuously
develops themselves, their practice and the wider profession. (Hawkins and Shohet)

Mini FAQ
How long will counselling take?
Depending on your needs, counselling can last for a few sessions, or for a longer period. For example,
a short term counselling contract can be for 12 sessions. A longer term counselling contract can be open
ended. Your initial consultation gives you the opportunity to clarify a therapy duration that suits you.
Is counselling confidential?
Yes, information disclosed in sessions is kept confidential. There are a few, exceptional circumstances in which
confidentiality agreement may need to be broken, and these situations will be discussed and explained at the beginning
of our work.
