About Leanne
Leanne Kemp is a counsellor and a BACP member with 13 years of experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma, and supports those dealing with relationship, parenting and career concerns. She also lists guilt and shame among her focus areas.
Leanne uses a client-centred way of working. That means she listens first and helps people shape sessions around what matters to them. She does not judge or tell people what to do. Instead she works alongside clients to clarify what would feel more workable in day to day life.
Many of her clients come with difficult past events such as abuse, bullying or attachment-related issues. She has experience supporting people who are neurodivergent, including autistic people and those with ADHD. She also works with grief, chronic illness and the stresses of caregiving.
In sessions Leanne draws on practical, solution-focused conversations when helpful. This can mean setting small, achievable steps between appointments or trying a different perspective on a persistent problem. The focus is on what helps someone manage concerns in the here and now as well as making sense of past experiences.
She is used to working with a wide range of emotional and practical problems, including sleep disruption, low self-esteem, anger and compassion fatigue. People who come for counselling can expect straightforward discussion about what is getting in the way and what might help next.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens carefully, reflects back what is said and follows the client's priorities. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of painful feelings like guilt or shame.Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that make a difference between sessions. Conversations focus on strengths and what is already working, then try brief experiments or adjustments to routine. This can be useful for sleep problems, anxiety, or coping with life changes.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss different approaches with the client and together they will decide what feels most helpful based on needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative decision is reviewed as therapy progresses.

Online sessions can help fit counselling into a busy week by reducing travel and making shorter check-ins possible.
