Julia Leprotti Therapist

At Breath of Life, I want to ensure that clients are receiving the service they need, and that they feel safe and free in the atmosphere I provide.

I really love listening to people and helping them with their challenges, whether it be work-related or personal. That initial therapeutic alliance is the greatest key to developing trust.

Over the years I have worked closely with individuals and companies, walking with them through critical incidents, workshops, and personal challenges.

“My aim is to teach people how to listen to the voice within so that they begin to trust themselves, in turn, this helps them to really listen to others.”

Therefore, she is committed to providing the latest and most effective treatments and interventions to improve the client’s well-being. 

Breath of Life Counselling -A personalised approach

Each person’s challenges are unique to them and how one person feels and responds to a certain circumstance or situation will be different for the next person. So the need to be heard by your counsellor is so critical for you. Taking the step to learn a different way of emotionally responding is also an opportunity towards developing an increasingly more fulfilling life
