A private clinic in Durham specialising in women’s emotional, mental and nervous system wellbeing.

Integrative, trauma-aware care supporting the body to reset, regulate and feel calm, clear and resilient again.

Treatments and professional Usui Reiki training.

Reiki • Tsuboki • Nervous-system led therapy and bodywork.

This is a private clinic offering both in-person and online sessions. Treatments and Reiki training are grounded in physiology, somatic awareness and long-term nervous system stability, not quick fixes or surface-level relief.

Led by Leanne Barker, integrative therapist, Usui Reiki Master Teacher and former NHS nurse, with advanced training in counselling, fascia-based bodywork, somatic therapy and nervous system regulation.

People come when stress, tension and emotional load begin to show in the body. Fatigue, anxiety, poor sleep, feeling wired but exhausted, or simply knowing something needs to change.

This work supports the body to shift out of survival mode, so you can think more clearly, feel more like yourself and move through life with greater ease and stability.


At Holistic Care Durhan

I specialise in women’s nervous system, emotional and physical wellbeing. Most of the women who come to see me have already tried to cope on their own for a long time. They are strong, capable and used to pushing through, but eventually their body begins to show the impact of chronic stress, trauma or burnout.

My work is integrative and grounded. I draw on my background in nursing alongside advanced training in fascia-based bodywork, somatic and trauma-aware approaches, emotional processing and Reiki. This allows me to work with the whole person, not just symptoms.

I understand that emotional experiences are not only psychological. They are held within the body, particularly within the fascial and nervous system. When this system becomes overwhelmed, it can affect sleep, hormones, digestion, pain, anxiety and overall resilience. My focus is to help the body feel safe enough to regulate, release and integrate.

This is not spa or relaxation therapy. It is calm, professional and deeply therapeutic care designed to support long-term change and maintenance.

Sessions take place in my private clinic in County Durham or online, and I also provide professional Reiki training for those wishing to work at a deeper level.
