About

Jindy Johal BSc, MA

An experienced and accredited therapist, I ground my work in compassion, curiosity and respect for your individual experience.

A quiet consulting room with soft natural light

My approach

A thoughtful space, centred on you.

I am a BACP Senior Accredited Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and an EMDR Europe Accredited Consultant based in Leicester.

I work with adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties. Our sessions offer a confidential space where you can speak openly, make sense of what is happening and explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.

My work is warm and collaborative. I will not judge or tell you what to do; I will listen carefully, offer reflection and work at a pace that feels manageable for you.

Experience

My professional practice beyond the therapy room.

I am a published author and have featured in the Counselling and Psychotherapy Research Journal.

I also introduced Break-Thru, a child play therapy programme in Leicester and Leicestershire, and have delivered mental health talks in schools and training for social service professionals.

How I work

Warmth, care and clinical experience.

I balance professionalism with warmth and acceptance, drawing on extensive training to create a trusting and confidential space.

I receive regular supervision and continue to develop my practice through ongoing professional training.
