About me and my therapy practice

Hello I’m Mandi,  and I’ve been working from my home based therapy practice since 2021. I am a counsellor/ psychotherapist, clinical hypnotherapist and integrative creative supervisor. I’m very experienced in working with people of all ages and in all stages of life.  I have over 40 years of experience in mental health support.

I’m a trauma informed therapist and the most important thing for me is that you feel safe and welcome in your sessions.

I specialise in working with complex trauma, historical childhood issues, neurodivergence and inner child reconnection.   I have lived experience of complex traumas, adoption and neurodivergence.

I offer sand tray therapy, creative therapy, somatic therapy, hypnotherapy, as well as traditional talking counselling and psychotherapy.  We will decide together what kind of therapy may benefit you,  This is your journey and you are always in charge. I’m here to empower you and help you to move forward.  

You will find me to be a warm, calm, intuitive, non judgemental  and empathetic therapist with a good sense of humour.  I will never tell you what to do or give you advice.  You have everything you need within you to start moving forward, I’ll help you to recognise that and support you throughout your time in therapy. 

Therapy can be painful, hard, emotional, funny, amazing and life changing.  You won’t be on your own. I’ll be right with you.


Practice description

I provide water, fidgets, blankets and a comfortable, confidential space for you to bring whatever is on your heart and in your mind.

I am based in Cleadon Village near Sunderland and I work from a room in my home. I have 2 Bengal cats who you may hear or see as you arrive or leave but they are not allowed in my therapy space.  I provide parking for you on my driveway.

If you feel connected with me please do get in touch.  The best way to connect is by email and you can reach me at:

cleadoncounsellor@protonmail.com

I look forward to hearing from you.

My first session

I will welcome you to your initial consultation which is your very first session with me.

I will guide you through an assessment and help you to settle in and feel comfortable. You can get a feel for the way I work and see if you feel at ease with me.  You will have a chance to experience my therapy space and ask me any questions you you may have.

This is a stand alone session to enable us to see if we are a good fit to work together.  At the end of this session, if you are happy to enter into therapy then we will go through a therapy contract and book your first session in.
