About Leanne
Leanne Walker is a counsellor who uses trauma-informed and attachment-aware approaches to help people find steadier ground. She holds BACP accreditation which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has worked in the field for 12 years and speaks English.
Leanne focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with addiction, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD and bipolar mood concerns.
Background and approach
Trauma and abuse are among the areas she addresses in her work. Her style is client-centred and practical. Sessions are a place to talk honestly about what is worrying you and to try simple steps that may help.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas are used when they suit the issue, for example to work on unhelpful thoughts or avoidant patterns. Leanne draws on attachment-based and existential ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and to explore meaning and choices. She aims to make sessions straightforward and respectful, helping people notice small changes that add up over time.
She offers therapy through video calls, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. To begin, use the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's availability and the subscription options.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Leanne commonly uses Trauma-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in her online work. Trauma-Focused Therapy involves pacing conversations to address how past harm affects present feelings and reactions; it can help people reduce distress linked to past events. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and helps people find new ways of relating to others and to themselves. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can explore their own solutions and make choices that feel right.Choosing the best approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. That may mean combining ideas from different approaches and adjusting as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and other daily demands.
