About Leanne

Leanne Taylor is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She uses a person-centred way of working and aims to listen without judgement while helping people talk through difficult feelings. Leanne promotes a steady, supportive space for people who feel stuck or overwhelmed.

Her approach trusts that people have an inner drive to grow and heal. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client and on helping them find their own answers. Leanne also uses simple creative art exercises when words feel hard to find, if the client prefers.

Leanne has volunteered supporting young people and worked with a local bereavement charity during the covid-19 lockdowns. She has also completed accredited practitioner training for infant and pregnancy loss, and for subsequent pregnancy after loss. These experiences inform her work with grief and loss.

She sees people with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, relationship and family issues, chronic pain and long-term illness, and coping with life changes. Leanne aims to offer calm, steady support while clients make sense of difficult events.

Outside private practice she delivers a personal development programme on a person-centred counselling diploma course and works with employee assistance programmes. Her style is gentle, listening-led, and focused on helping clients feel understood as they work through what matters to them.

How person-centred work translates to online therapy

Leanne practises a person-centred approach which puts the client's experience at the heart of sessions. This approach focuses on the therapist listening attentively, reflecting what is said, and helping the client to discover their own priorities and solutions. It is useful for issues such as anxiety, depression, grief and life changes.

She can also introduce gentle creative art exercises for people who find it hard to put feelings into words. These simple activities aim to open conversation and make emotional material easier to express, which can help with trauma, loss and overwhelming feelings.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Leanne works with each person to see which ways of working suit their needs, goals and preferences. She will adapt the pace and techniques as the relationship develops to find what helps most.

Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring roles and medical appointments, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. These practical benefits often help people keep continuity of care while they deal with health challenges and life changes.
