About Leanne

Leanne Banks is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people managing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict and the effects of trauma and abuse. She aims to make first contacts straightforward and to offer a calm space for people to talk through what feels most urgent to them.

Leanne works in a warm, non-judgemental way so clients can share thoughts and feelings safely. She encourages practical steps alongside reflection, helping people to notice patterns and to try different ways of responding.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on building small, manageable goals. Her background includes three years of professional experience in the UK and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and NCPS. Leanne blends ideas from attachment-based and client-centred perspectives to guide conversations about relationships and connection.

She also draws on existential and Jungian ideas when people want to weigh meaning, values or identity. Mindfulness practices are used to help with stress, grounding and managing overwhelming feelings. Leanne invites clients to approach therapy at their own pace and to set the agenda in early sessions.

She works collaboratively to decide which methods suit each person and checks in regularly to ensure sessions remain relevant and helpful.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current relationships. Online sessions use conversation and reflection to notice patterns of closeness, distance and trust, which helps when handling relationship or family issues.

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experience. The counsellor listens closely and follows the client's pace, encouraging self-led insight and practical steps to reduce stress and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and then agree on which ideas to try first. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy proceeds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone is handy when bandwidth is lower, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging suits people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and practical coping skills.
