About Leanne
Leanne Taylor is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She lists work with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and depression among her core concerns. She also notes support for relationship and family issues, substance problems, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, career questions and coping with life changes.
Leanne uses a person-centred approach. That means sessions focus on the client’s own experience rather than a fixed set of techniques. She listens without judgement and helps people find clearer ways of understanding their feelings. She can offer simple creative exercises, such as drawing or art-based tasks, when speaking feels difficult.
Her background includes volunteer roles with young people and bereavement work during the COVID-19 lockdowns. She has completed accredited practitioner training related to infant and pregnancy loss and subsequent pregnancy after loss. She also delivers a personal development module on a person-centred counselling diploma at a local college.
In addition to private work, Leanne provides counselling via employee assistance programmes. Sessions often focus on practical steps to manage anxiety, grief or feelings of being stuck. She aims to be an objective listener and to help people reach better understanding of what they are living through.
People usually find her approach straightforward and paced to their comfort. If creative exercises might help, clients can bring that up in session and try them alongside talking. The first session typically looks at what matters most and what practical next steps might be.
Person-centred practice and online counselling
Leanne works using a person-centred approach. This means sessions focus on the client’s own experience, with the counsellor following what matters most to the person. It suits people dealing with anxiety, grief, feeling stuck or changes in life who want to be heard and understood in their own words.She can also use simple creative exercises alongside talking, such as drawing or art-based tasks. These are useful when naming feelings is hard, or when people prefer to use a different way to express what they’re feeling. Such activities can help access emotional material without forcing a particular path.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, and then agree a way forward together. This collaborative process helps shape sessions so they fit the client rather than fitting the client to a method.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue work with the same counsellor despite location changes or busy schedules.
