Welcome!
Are you looking for a safe and effective counselling model to support with long term change?
I use a collaborative holistic approach to empower individuals to overcome unique obstacles, improve relationships, and mindfully shift long term patterns.
Sometimes we find ourselves repeating the same pattern or cycle without clarity of how to change or why we keep getting stuck. Through this work, we access your own inner guidance to provide clarity and build resources to support this healing and transformational work.
With over twenty years of experience, I provide a skilled clinical lens as we collaborate to transform deep patterns. I work primarily with deeper processing techniques such as Somatic EMDR, generational trauma healing, Animist psychotherapy, Transpersonal Psychotherapy, Depth Hypnosis, and Dream Work.
For more in depth understanding of my work, please check out the Free Resources Page for resources related to this way of working including recorded meditations and guided processes, handouts/pdf resources, and recommended book lists.
At this time, I work with online sessions and in person sessions at my office/art studio in St. Margaret's House, Studio B102, 151 London Road, Edinburgh EH7 6AE
Cost for a one hour session is £75 and £90 for a couples or family session.
Please reach out for a 15 minute consultation if you think this might be a good fit or have any questions.
Specialities:
Individual work with Adults
I work with adults who are looking to deepen into and release their long terms patterns. I work with somatic deeper processing - it is the approach that most aligns with who I am.
Over the years, I have experience many clients making big shifts in the life and their relationships to themselves in relatively short time frames.

TESTIMONIALS
“Jaime is an extremely gifted therapist, that I cannot speak more highly of! She first helped my daughter who was dealing with a tremendous amount of loss and anxiety, and her mom and I noticed an immediate difference in our daughter’s mental health and well-being. I decided to see Jaime as well, when I was going through quite a bit of personal stress and felt lost. Jaime listened well and immediately took me through several sessions including clinical hypnosis and EMDR, which helped me to release numerous negative old family and personal patterns. She was also the first counselor to recognize that I had trauma from a past relationship, which was still affecting my life. I have tremendous gratitude and love for Jaime; she has changed my daughter’s and my life! If you are looking for an intuitive, compassionate, gifted therapist who gets results, then you have definitely found the right person to help you”.

"I have worked with other counselors in the past, but none were able to help me in the same way that Jaime was. Her ability to listen and understand me was remarkable, right from our first session. Right away I felt comfortable with her, and I felt like she was truly invested in my healing journey. Due to work we did together I am able to have healthier relationships with everyone in my life and I feel empowered to take on new challenges and opportunities. If you are looking for a counselor who will help you heal and discover your best self, I highly recommend Jaime Leslie"
