About Leita

Leita Sanger is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She offers a calm, straightforward approach aimed at making it easier to talk about painful feelings. Leita uses plain language and steady support so people can take small steps towards feeling better.

Leita builds a welcoming space where thoughts and emotions can be shared without judgement. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her and on practical ways to manage day-to-day distress.

Background and approach

She encourages small, achievable changes rather than sudden fixes. Her work draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address difficulties such as abandonment, attachment issues and codependency, as well as problems linked to illness, caregiving and major life transitions. She also helps people cope with dissociation, communication breakdowns, control issues and feelings of emptiness.

With eight years of professional experience, Leita aims to be steady and present while people sort through painful memories or current stressors. Her BACP credential is shown as part of her professional background. She accepts clients across the United Kingdom and internationally and conducts sessions in English.

People who choose her can expect a practical, gentle style. Conversations may include exploring past events, learning coping strategies, and planning small steps forward. Leita supports each person to set goals that feel manageable and relevant to their life.

Focus areas and approaches

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

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Leita uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that work well in remote sessions. One approach focuses on practical coping skills and problem solving to reduce anxiety and manage everyday stressors. This involves teaching simple tools people can use between sessions to lower tension and stay grounded.

Another strand of her work looks at processing trauma and difficult memories at a pace that feels safe for the client. This often means pacing conversations, using grounding exercises and gradually addressing painful events so that people can gain more control over intrusive thoughts and strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Leita will talk with each person about their needs, goals and how they prefer to work. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good option when video is difficult, and chat or messaging can suit shorter check-ins or days when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel.
