About Leanne
Leanne Glennon is a BACP counsellor with 17 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns and LGBT matters. Her work also covers related difficulties such as attachment issues, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and body image.
She builds therapy around the relationship with each person. That starts with getting to know what matters most to the client and which problems they want to address. She uses talking therapies alongside practical techniques so people can find clearer ways of managing difficult feelings and situations.
Trauma-informed and trauma-focused work form a significant part of her practice. When needed she uses a three-phase model of trauma recovery - safety and stabilisation, remembrance and processing, then reconnection and integration. She explains how the brain and nervous system respond to trauma and supports people as they work through those responses.
Leanne uses approaches such as trauma-focused cognitive behavioural methods, cognitive behavioural therapy and emotion-focused techniques. Creative methods are sometimes brought in to help with expression and processing when talking alone is hard. She has particular experience with sexual abuse, complex bereavement and domestic abuse.
She has worked with self-harm in clinical practice and researched therapists' experiences of this area for her MSc thesis. Leanne aims to work collaboratively, recognising the person as the expert in their own life and helping them find practical steps forward.
Sessions are conducted in English and Leanne accepts international clients. Before booking readers should confirm the current session options and arrangements.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Leanne uses trauma-focused cognitive behavioural methods to help people process specific traumatic events. This approach combines structured techniques with guided processing to reduce distress linked to memories and reminders.She also works with cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help people change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is practical and skills-based, often useful for anxiety, stress and problems with mood. Emotion-focused techniques are used alongside these methods to help people identify and work with strong feelings when talking alone is not enough.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. She will talk through goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will decide which methods to try and adjust them as the work progresses so the plan fits the person’s needs.
The biography does not state specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities or travel, or to have shorter check-ins when time is limited. They can also remove the need to travel and help sustain continuity when life makes in-person attendance difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss which format will suit the person’s practical circumstances and clinical goals.
