About Leanne

Leanne Roughton is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years of professional experience helping people talk through relationship strains, family conflict and low mood. Leanne aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and supportive for anyone feeling overwhelmed.

Leanne offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can name difficult thoughts and feelings. She encourages practical conversations about coping and small changes that can make daily life easier.

Background and approach

Her manner is straightforward and compassionate, focused on what matters most to each person. Her work commonly addresses stress, anxiety and the emotional fallout from trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with grief, anger, low self-esteem and the strain of life changes such as separation or workplace issues.

Parenting concerns, intimacy-related worries and compassion fatigue are included in her practice. Leanne pays attention to attachment and abandonment wounds that affect current relationships. She talks with clients about communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and body image in plain language.

Where trauma is present, she helps people pace the work and build coping strategies before moving into deeper material. Sessions aim to identify clear goals, develop practical skills and review progress together. Leanne uses an evidence-based approach and adapts methods to each person’s needs.

Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and sessions are offered in English.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Leanne lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Leanne draws on well-established, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding feelings and building skills. One approach helps people identify unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour and then try small changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach concentrates on the impact of past hurts and attachment difficulties on present relationships, helping clients to notice patterns and develop healthier ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is worked out together. The therapist reviews what is and isn’t helping and adjusts methods to match each person’s goals and pace. This collaborative process means therapy is shaped around your needs and preferences rather than a fixed plan.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and text or live chat suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family time or other commitments and allow consistent contact when in-person meetings are difficult.
