About Leanne
Leanne Bartrip is a counsellor who uses a flexible, person-centred approach to therapy. She draws on multiple methods so sessions match what each person needs. She speaks plainly and works to make therapy feel practical and approachable.
Leanne has a decade of experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She also helps with relationship worries, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, and challenges such as ADHD and chronic health issues.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in the NHS across different services in the United Kingdom. Her sessions start by listening to what matters most to the person. Leanne adapts exercises and conversations from approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and attachment-informed work.
The focus is on small, realistic steps that can be tried between appointments. She explains ideas in everyday language and keeps plans simple. People can expect a collaborative process where goals are set together and reviewed as progress is made.
Leanne also offers coaching-style guidance when practical decisions or adjustments are needed. Outside therapy she enjoys time with her dog and simple pastimes that help her recharge. Her registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy is part of how she stays connected with professional standards.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It can support those facing anxiety, low mood, life changes and struggles with motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical experiments to change reactions. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people build safer ways of relating and communicating with others. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and agree a plan that fits the person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted as needs change. Online therapy offers clear practical benefits. Video calls let the therapist and client read facial expressions and body language while meeting from different places. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can suit a shorter check-in or times when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for brief exchanges, reflective writing, or more flexible pacing between scheduled sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or mobility needs and help maintain continuity when travel or relocation happens.Frequently asked
