Focus areas and approaches

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

Approaches that guide online counselling

Leigh draws on person-centred work that focuses on being heard and understood. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings, painful memories or uncertainty about next steps. It aims to build trust and reduce isolation.

She also uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help identify unhelpful patterns and test small changes. These techniques can support people dealing with anxiety, low mood, trauma reactions or problems with concentration and organisation associated with ADHD.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leigh will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they review progress and adapt the plan as needed, keeping sessions practical and focused on what matters most to the client.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversations and reading body language, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can suit shorter check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and to keep continuity when life is busy.
