Therapy for finance professionals. For neurodivergent adults. For anyone navigating life's harder chapters
Counselling psychologist · Bayswater & Chancery Lane, London · online and in-person
I'm Dr Louise Legg. I worked for 25 years in the financial world, primarily as an actuary, and now work as a therapist with finance professionals, neurodivergent adults, and a range of people navigating life's harder chapters.
In our sessions, you can expect a flexible and holistic approach. After a thorough assessment, we collaborate to identify your concerns and set achievable goals. My priority is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where you feel understood and supported.
About me
I am a Counselling Psychologist, based in London in the UK. I have worked for over 25 years in the financial world, primarily as an actuary, and these last six years as a therapist in the third sector and large private practices supporting individuals affected by complex mental health problems.
I work independently in private practice to provide adults with both psychological therapy and neurodevelopmental assessment. I have a passion for helping both finance professionals and neurodivergent adults, but I work with a range of people and difficulties.
Psychological therapy and neurodevelopmental assessment from a neuro-affirming stance
HCPC-registered counselling psychologist, offering a blend of evidence-based therapies tailored to your unique needs. With extensive training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, EMDR and Person-Centred Therapy, I also incorporate techniques from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Compassion-focused therapy (CFT), and Trauma-Focused Therapy.
Fee: £150 per 50 minute session
ADHD & Autism Assessment
I can incorporate ADHD assessments which follow NICE guidelines into our therapeutic work or conduct them stand-alone if desired. I also offer standalone autism assessments for verbally fluent adults, and conduct this over multiple sessions, with input from informants, if they are available, following NICE guidelines.
My personal experiences with diagnostic assessment mean that I like to conduct assessments over multiple sessions, including a psychological assessment and informant interviews, and I write my reports in a neuro-affirming way.
Standalone Assessment Fees: £1,350 for ADHD; £1,500 for Autism; £2,500 for combined.
