About Leyla

Leyla Corbett offers a calm, straightforward way of working for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, trauma or problems with intimacy. She creates a space where being heard matters and practical steps are taken towards feeling steadier. Leyla uses a warm, empathetic manner and aims to help clients face difficult feelings rather than avoid them.

She combines client-centred ideas with emotionally-focused and existential perspectives to match what each person needs.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what is happening now, how feelings show up in relationships, and what gives life meaning. Leyla believes the therapeutic relationship itself is central and works alongside clients to set realistic goals. Her background includes four years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

That experience informs her approach to common struggles such as family problems, communication breakdowns, and separation or divorce. Leyla is also experienced in areas some clients find hard to talk about, including abandonment, body image, alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink, chronic illness and pain, and caregiver stress.

She draws on cultural awareness to understand how identity and background shape difficulties. Sessions are available in English and Turkish and can be arranged for people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Leyla offers a collaborative, down-to-earth style for those ready to work through painful issues and build more resilience.

Approach-led online counselling and flexible session formats

Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of the work, with the counsellor offering empathy and non-judgemental listening to help people understand their feelings and make choices that feel right for them. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on how emotions shape relationships and personal patterns, helping people notice and change repeating cycles that cause pain. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility, which can be useful for people facing loss, major life changes or questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the work, and Leyla treats that as a collaborative task. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, then adapt techniques from these approaches so they fit the person sitting across from her online. This means the plan can change as understanding grows and priorities shift.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are good when visual connection helps, phone sessions suit quieter bandwidth or hands-free conversations, and chat or messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support across distances.
