About Angela

Angela Leoni is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She brings three years of experience supporting people through stressful and painful life events. Angela talks plainly and listens closely, offering a calm and non-judgemental space for people to speak about what matters to them.

She focuses on practical steps as well as emotional support. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs, whether the issue is anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, relationship strain, codependency or problems with sleep and focus. Angela aims to help people find clearer thinking and kinder self-talk.

Her background includes work with trauma, abuse, addiction and long-term health challenges. Angela uses a blend of approaches to match the person in front of her rather than one fixed method. She encourages people to lead the conversation and to set the pace for change.

In session she checks in about goals and makes space for both feelings and practical problem-solving. She can help with parenting stress, career worries, compassion fatigue and life transitions. The focus is on steady progress and realistic steps that fit everyday life.

Angela invites anyone ready to explore change to take the first step. She supports people for short periods or over longer work depending on what they need, and she adapts her approach as progress unfolds.

How Angela’s approaches translate to online work

Angela often draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy and following the client’s lead. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk about feelings and make sense of difficult events.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to address patterns of thinking and behaviour. CBT is practical and helps with anxiety, low mood, sleep issues and coping with life changes by testing unhelpful thoughts and trying new actions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how each method might help. Decisions about techniques are made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.

The exact online session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins on a busy day. It can also mean less need to be on camera if that helps, or using simpler audio for lower bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt materials and exercises for remote sessions to keep the work practical and focused.
