What is Individual Counselling?
Individual Counselling is one-on-one (client and psychotherapist) talking therapy which aims to help deal with a wide range of personal topics. It’s aimed at exploring feelings, beliefs, or behaviours, working through challenging or influential memories, identifying aspects of life you want to change, better understanding yourself and others, setting personal goals, and working toward desired change.
We understand that the path to self-discovery and healing is profoundly personal. Our individual, one-to-one counselling sessions are designed to meet you right where you are. Individual Counselling benefits include creating a time and space centred around you, where you can carve out time to express yourself, commit to self-learning, and boost your resilience.

Starting Individual Counselling
Whether you need immediate support, want to address current or past issues, or wish to discuss your feelings and state of mind with an experienced therapist and professional in a safe and confidential setting, Individual Therapy offers transformative benefits that foster personal growth.
Individual Therapy does not have to be started in moments of crisis. Many people go to Individual Therapy for personal development and, at times, to ensure that they are maintaining good care for their mental and emotional health.
Individual Therapy at Leone Centre, whether in person in London or online, starts with an initial, full-length assessment appointment. Once you have selected the Therapist you feel is best suited to support you, either by viewing our team page or contacting a member of our client services team, you can book your initial appointment over the phone or using our booking form.
The initial appointment is an opportunity for you to get a feel for your psychotherapist, their approach, and how they work, and ask any questions you may have. It is also a time for the Therapist to gain a better understanding of your wants, needs, goals, and expectations from therapy so they can best support you.
Individual Counselling FAQs
How can Individual Counselling help me?
Individual Counselling provides an individualised approach to understanding and overcoming personal challenges, from emotional distress to relationship issues. It offers a supportive space to explore and address underlying patterns, fostering emotional resilience and long-term change. This personalised journey empowers you to gain greater self-awareness and well-being.
Who can benefit from Individual Counselling?
Individual Counselling can benefit anyone who seeks personal growth, feels overwhelmed by life’s challenges, experiences emotional distress, or experiences relationship issues. It’s suitable for individuals of all ages and backgrounds who are dealing with various emotional, psychological, and behavioural issues.
How effective is Individual Counselling?
Studies indicate that psychotherapy not only reduces the recurrence of conditions like moderate depression and anxiety but also that the benefits last until long after therapy has concluded. Clients frequently experience sustained improvements, highlighting the life-changing impact of therapy. Moreover, many therapeutic approaches are grounded in evidence-based practices, having undergone rigorous scrutiny through research and clinical evaluations to verify their efficacy.
How long does each counselling session last?
Each counselling session lasts for 50 minutes.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of Individual Counselling sessions varies significantly from one individual to another. Some people find relief and achieve their goals in just a few sessions, while others may engage in counselling for several months or longer. The duration depends on the complexity of the issues, your commitment, and how the process evolves.
Is Individual Counselling confidential?
Yes, Individual Counselling is strictly confidential. Ethical guidelines and laws protect the privacy of the therapeutic relationship, ensuring that what you discuss in sessions remains private.
What if I don’t ‘click’Â with my Counsellor?
The therapeutic relationship is central to the success of counselling. If you do not feel connected with your Counsellor, it is essential to discuss this openly. Counsellors are trained to handle such feedback professionally, may suggest adjustments, and can refer you to another therapist if necessary.
Can I receive counselling online?
Yes, we offer online Individual Counselling sessions, providing flexibility and accessibility for those who prefer or require remote services. Depending on your individual needs and preferences, online counselling can be just as effective as in-person sessions.
