Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist in Leeds
I’m Rosemary Winter, a child and adolescent psychoanalytic psychotherapist based in Leeds. I offer psychotherapy for infants, children, teenagers and young adults up to age 26, as well as support for parents and carers.
Children and young people may come to therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, low mood, difficult experiences or challenges in their relationships. My work offers a space to understand what may be happening beneath these difficulties and to consider the support that feels right for each person.

Thinking About Psychotherapy?
It can be difficult to know what kind of support you or your child might need. I offer a free 20-minute telephone consultation so you can tell me a little about your concerns, ask questions and hear more about how I work.
There is no obligation to begin psychotherapy. If it seems that working together may be helpful, we can discuss whether an initial assessment would be an appropriate next step. All enquiries are treated sensitively and in confidence.
