About Leyla

Leyla Corbett offers a steady, listening presence for people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns. She introduces a calm, direct style that helps people speak plainly about hard things and make small, practical changes.

Leyla holds a BACP credential and draws on a human-centred way of working to keep the person, not the problem, at the centre of each session. Her sessions focus on building strength through facing difficult emotions rather than avoiding them.

Background and approach

She uses straightforward conversation and gentle challenge to help people name what matters and take steps that feel manageable. Cultural background and personal values are woven into the work so the therapy fits each person's life. Leyla combines client-centred, emotionally-focused and existential approaches.

That mix lets her attend to feelings in the moment, repair important relationships, and look at meaning and choices when life feels uncertain. She adapts those approaches to issues like family problems, abandonment, body image, chronic illness and caregiving stress.

With four years' experience, Leyla supports people who are navigating divorce, blended family worries, domestic violence aftermath and the fallout from natural or human-caused disasters. She also works with concerns linked to alternative sex culture such as BDSM and kink, and with people facing cancer or chronic pain. Sessions are available in English and Turkish and Leyla accepts international clients.

Work typically begins with a short conversation to identify goals, then moves at a pace chosen by the client. Practical steps and honest reflection are the foundation of her practice.

How Leyla's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions. It is useful when someone needs a steady, accepting space to sort out feelings and decisions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name strong emotions and the patterns those emotions create in close relationships. It can be helpful for intimacy-related concerns and repairing emotional distance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leyla will discuss options with each person and choose what fits their goals and values. This is a collaborative process where client preferences shape the plan and pace of therapy.

Online therapy offers practical benefits: video calls let people use facial cues and tone, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier on difficult days, and live chat or text-based messaging suits quick check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel, while keeping the focus on steady progress and real-life changes.
