About Jareeda

Jareeda Walters-Leatherbarrow is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, family difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. She holds a BACP registration and brings three years of professional counselling experience alongside a decade of informal support work. Her approach aims to help people feel heard and more capable of managing day-to-day pressures.

Jareeda uses a gentle, person-focused style in sessions. She listens first and helps clients name what matters to them.

Background and approach

Together they explore patterns that get in the way and try practical ways to change them. Sessions are straightforward and aim to make ideas easy to use between appointments. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape current feelings.

Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when thinking patterns are a clear source of anxiety or low mood. Emotionally focused work supports people who want to understand strong feelings and reconnect with their own needs. Clients with concerns such as abandonment, body image, chronic illness, communication problems, eating issues or fertility worries are within her focus areas.

Jareeda also offers support around family of origin issues, divorce and separation, and coping after a disaster or trauma. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. She works collaboratively to set goals and reviews progress at a pace that suits each person.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Jareeda uses attachment-based work to look at how past and present relationships affect feelings and behaviours. This helps people who struggle with trust, abandonment or repeating difficult patterns in relationships. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jareeda explores a person’s goals, preferences and daily realities and then suggests ways to proceed. That decision is made together, and methods can change as progress is reviewed over time.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls suit longer conversations and face-to-face style work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people write when it fits around other commitments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when circumstances change.
