My name is Leanne, and I am a qualified BACP-registered Person-Centred Counsellor with a degree in counselling. I currently offer online and telephone sessions.

Over the years, I have worked with adults and children aged 5 and above. My experience includes working as a school therapist, working with the NHS and providing private therapy to both adults and young people. I also have foundational training in CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy), which I can integrate into our sessions as needed, complementing the person-centred approach.

I believe that everyone deserves a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their thoughts and feelings. Whether you’re seeking open-ended support or a set number of sessions, I offer a flexible approach tailored to your needs. I am committed to empowering individuals to take ownership of their lives and decisions while supporting them every step of the way.

Life’s challenges can sometimes leave us feeling stuck, and having the opportunity to talk and be truly heard can create the foundation for meaningful change. Finding the right counsellor is an important part of this journey, and my priority is to ensure you feel comfortable and supported throughout.

I offer a complimentary initial consultation to explore whether I am the right fit for you and to discuss how I can help.

I have extensive experience supporting individuals with a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm, grief, eating disorders, gender identity, self-esteem, and many other presenting challenges.

My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and emotions at your own pace.

As a person-centred therapist, my approach is non-directive. This means I am not here to tell you what to do or to give instructions, but rather to listen with empathy and help you feel heard and understood.

For those who prefer an alternative to face-to-face or telephone sessions, I also offer text-based counselling as a flexible and accessible option.

I can offer a initial conversation via telephone to see if I am the right counsellor for you before arranging a session.
