About Bogdana
Bogdana Leete is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She also supports those coping with grief, sleeping problems, low self-esteem and codependency. Sessions are offered in English, Russian and Ukrainian and are designed to fit around existing commitments.
Bogdana takes a person-centred view and believes there is no single approach that suits everyone. She listens first, then tailors methods to match each person's needs and life situation. Conversations aim to build understanding without judgement and to identify practical steps forward.
Her practice is active and collaborative. She shares self-help tools and techniques to help manage panic, improve sleep, reduce worry and rebuild confidence. She also works with people experiencing trauma, self-injury urges, and difficult life transitions such as redundancy or bereavement.
In the first session Bogdana focuses on why someone is seeking therapy and what they want to achieve. She asks questions to decide whether she and the client can work well together and to agree how often to meet and the session fee. A working contract is then drawn up to set out the way of working.
Her background includes six years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers online and telephone counselling so sessions can fit around work, family and travel commitments.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The counsellor follows the person's lead, reflects what matters and helps people find their own answers; this suits concerns like low self-esteem, relationship dilemmas and grief.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and offers practical exercises to change them. It is often used for anxiety, panic, sleeping problems and low mood because it gives tools to practise between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods over time. This is a collaborative process that aims to match technique to the person's life and needs.
Practical benefits of online and telephone counselling include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to join from different locations and helps people keep therapy going during life changes. Confirm the available session options when you book so you know which formats are offered.
