About Angela

Angela Leoni is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a BACP credential and three years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, and other life challenges. Angela aims to offer calm, respectful support that helps people take practical steps forward.

She works in a client-led way, asking people what they most want to talk about and shaping sessions around those needs. Conversations are kept straightforward so clients can name what feels hard and try out small changes between meetings. Angela uses her training to help people notice unhelpful thinking and everyday habits, and to build more helpful ways of coping.

Her approach draws on a few different therapies to match what each person prefers. Sessions can include exploring personal values and meaning, practising grounding and present-focused techniques, or looking at patterns in relationships and communication. The emphasis is on clear, practical work rather than technical jargon.

People come to Angela for a wide range of issues, including self-esteem, addiction, parenting stresses, sleep problems, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and career or life change worries. She also offers support around grief, intimacy and sexual concerns, and compassion fatigue for carers.

Angela aims to make the first step less daunting by listening without judgement and helping clients decide what to try next. She encourages gradual progress and sensible goals, and will work alongside each person for as long as is helpful.

How Angela’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following what the client brings to the session. It helps when someone needs space to sort out feelings and decide what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions, and helps people test small practical steps to shift unhelpful patterns. Existential Therapy addresses questions of meaning, choice and values and can help people facing life transitions or uncertainty.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Angela will discuss different ways of working and help the client choose approaches that match their goals, preferences and everyday life. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which online options are currently offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family or travel, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it helpful to continue steady work on thoughts and habits from wherever they are, adapting exercises and reflections to daily life.
