About Me

I run face-to-face sessions in Yorkshire including in Leeds, York, Hull and Bridlington. I run online sessions wherever you are in the world. 

I have a deep understanding about mental health and wellbeing, and experience of working with people in tnany different situations in their lives. Clients feed back that I am calm, warm and approachable - that they feel accepted and comfortable being themselves. The approach aims to help people to overcome problems that might at first feel overwhelming, breaking down complex issues into practical, manageable steps. My goal is to build hope, motivation and a clear focus to achieve the positive changes that matter to you. 

I am a qualified psychotherapist, coach and facilitator. I spent my early career working in mental health in the NHS and social care, locally, regionally and nationally. My work involved improving services, championing the involvement of people who use services, leading anti-stigma campaigns and promoting new ways of measuring outcomes for people. 
I accept private, NHS and referrals from other organisations, working online or face-to-face. Clients have the potential to access a combination of different services including sessions (for individuals, couples and families), group sessions and workshops. 
If this sounds like something that might work for you, please get in touch to set up a first call to find out more or book an appointment. 

Testimonials 

I have left every session with Ingrid feeling physically and psychologically 'better' like a huge weight has been lifted from me. Ingrid has a calm and reassuring manner that immediately puts you at ease, even over zoom. Ingrid manages (without fail) to make sense of my jumble of thoughts and emotions. She is patient and lets me offload, thought-provoking and gently helps me to reflect on how to feel differently. I have made significant progress and she has given me the confidence and practical tools to make some big changes to my life, which has made a huge improvement to my wellbeing. 
Female, aged 49 (work-related stress and anxiety, hypothyroidism, perimenopause) 

Ingrid helped me unpack events from my life and how those events have impacted on me now. Ingrid was someone who would genuinely listen. I felt comfortable and safe when speaking to Ingrid. She's changed the way I look and think about things. I am drug free for the first time in 12 years. To anyone thinking about seeking support from Ingrid, I'd say go for it because it is a genuine safe space and Ingrid is phenomenal.
Male, aged 26 years (trauma, addiction) 

lngrid's patience and considered approach enabled me to make progress with my longstanding diagnosis of OCD that I had experienced for more than 20 years. If you are considering support but not sure if it will make a difference like I was, I would recommend giving it a go with Ingrid. She's one of the good ones. 
Female, aged 34 years (anxiety, OCD, trauma) 

When I first saw Ingrid, I thought to myself it's about time I did something for myself as I am always the one listening. Ingrid helped me to realise I'm doing ok and I often have the answers to my concerns/issues, that I'm actually quite a strong person. I am very grateful and I have and will continue to recommend others to see her. She has a gift. 
Trans male, aged 39 years (managing physical health, anxiety, identity) 

I have had a complete change of mindset and understanding thanks to Ingrid. I was given the opportunity to completely open up and get to the root of my problems. Ingrid listened profusely and made me feel so safe and welcome. My anxiety has almost completely disappeared and I have managed to completely diminish my 'routines' that I HAD to follow. Now for the first time in six years, I have a full night of unbroken sleep.
