About Leanne
Leanne uses a person-centred way of working. She listens without judgement and supports people as they talk through painful or confusing experiences. Sessions can include open conversation or creative art exercises for those who find it hard to put feelings into words.

She has also completed accredited practitioner training focused on infant and pregnancy loss and subsequent pregnancy after loss. In addition to private practice, she works with employee assistance programmes and teaches on a person-centred counselling diploma course.
Leanne has worked with people dealing with anxiety, low mood, life changes and a sense of being lost or stuck.

Her goal is to meet people where they are and to support their process at a comfortable pace.

How person-centred work translates to online therapy
Leanne works from a person-centred viewpoint which focuses on being fully present and listening without judgement. This approach helps when someone needs time and space to make sense of stress, grief or difficult life changes and aims to support natural personal growth.She also offers creative art exercises as an option when words are hard to find. Using drawing or other simple creative tasks can help people express feelings about trauma, loss or loneliness in a different way and can be woven into sessions if the client wishes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help identify whether a person-centred style and creative methods suit a client's needs, goals and preferences. Together they will review what feels most helpful and adapt the way they work as therapy progresses.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or mobility limits and can reduce travel time. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed and options that do not require being on camera if that helps someone engage more comfortably. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss practical arrangements when you use the site's booking steps to start.
